Earthlink & Automated Emails (php 5.+) - 07/24/2001 2:22 AM
Okay folks, do any of you personally use Earthlink? At first I thought it was just a coincidence, but now I am absolutely certain that there is something wrong with either WWWThreads, Earthlink itself, or something else. But there IS some sort of problem here.
Over the last several months I have had people writing to me asking why the password email they received from our forums is blank and has an attachment. In fact, they often would ask, what application was required to read their passwords. Confused, I at first assumed user error and suggested they try requesting the password again.
Well, I have received over 40 emails now and after going over our server email configuration at legth, I see nothing wrong on our end. So either something is being generated improperly by W3T when it generates and sends out the password emails or Earthlink has a problem reading the emails generated by W3T.
I get the feeling that an improper MIME type is being used and Earthlink is balking at it. The ONLY other email service I've ever received complaints like this for is MSN. But not recently.
Scream (or anyone) do you have any suggestions about this? Thanks!
