  • I was trying to use configure-smtp but it was generating error codes, so it was not working either way.

    I hadn’t found that post, but it would probably would have done the trick.

    As noted below, I now have it working with configure-smtp, but, is there a reason you like WP Mail SMTP over configure-smpt?

    Many thanks,

    Rory

    Solved.

    I needed to use the Configure SMTP plugin, but leave the default SMPT host at “local host”.

    I needed to spend more time searching the error codes I was getting. That google search lead me to a post at http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/installing-mu-plugins

    Solved now – The hosting company told me to swap outgoing mail server from “host111.hostmonster.com” to “localhost’ and now seems to be working.
    Thanks tremendously for all your help @Ulrich and others….

    It’s not easy being green.

    Sort of, maybe. It tells me somewhere out there at bluehost php sendmail is waiting for instructions.

    I already did my very best to uninstall WP (using simplescripts), delete the WP DB and DB users, and delete any other traces I could find using ftp. When I re-installed, I could register a new user to the WP installation and generate a successful activation email (which looked just like the ones they are talking about in your forum link). Then I installed BP, went through the same registration process, same address, same result in the WP BP users lists, but no email is sent.

    Something is not landing in the right place or getting updated correctly when BP is installed. Still flummoxed.

    Thank you though.
