    Hello again friends,

     

     

    OK something really basic (I got tunnel vision at the moment)

     

    This is driving me crazy. :smileymad:

     

    Anyone had this issue where the sponsor activation email is not sent to the sponsor?

    Also email receipt is not sent to the self registered user?

    Test email works ok through the SMTP relay internal and out of the network

    Checked in there - I had a FW issue and I got a change done, and the app log said conenction refused on test mails

     

    When I manually click on send a email receipt to guest, it works - do the screen shots look ok to you?

    Sorry to be clearer = I had a FW change done to resolve the connection refused when emailing

     

    I no longer have this I can manually trigger mail in test or by clicking send user email reciept

    I got to to the bottom of it. My cluster is split between internal and DMZ. My SMTP relay is the problem. I can't use the same SMTP relay IP address or fqdn address. Long story but, so as I can only use a single SMTP address within the cluster I will be taking advantage of split DNS and getting the same CNAMEs added in internal and external DNS that reference different A records. This allows for the DMZ cppm servers to relay mail to a different target to the internals So the sponsorship confirmation and SMS stuff completes, also if the referenced A record is changed it doesn't matter as I am using CNAMES. Just thought I would mention this in case anyone has the same problem I was scratching my head about this for a while! Cheers ;)
