I can try this, but how would I do an e-mail confirmation check if it wasn’t through a BuddyPress registration form? How do I do this in regular WordPress (having deactivated BuddyPress)? Thanks.

Sorry to report it doesn’t work.

My account details on my server HostMonster are:

Mail Server Username: admin@iqmindware.com
Incoming Mail Server: mail.iqmindware.com IMAP: port 143, POP: port 110
Incoming Mail Server: (SSL): host220.hostmonster.com IMAP: port 993, POP: port 995
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.iqmindware.com (server requires authentication) port 26
Outgoing Mail Server: (SSL): host220.hostmonster.com (server requires authentication) port 465
Supported Incoming Mail Protocols: POP3, POP3S (SSL/TLS), IMAP, IMAPS (SSL/TLS)
Supported Outgoing Mail Protocols: SMTP, SMTPS (SSL/TLS)

I set the plugin up as SMTP Host: mail.iqmindware.com
SMTP port: 26

with no encryption or authentication.

And I get this error message when I try a test to an e-mail address:

The result was:

bool(true)
The full debugging output is shown below:

object(PHPMailer)#192 (53) {

[“ErrorInfo”]=>

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
