I got the following error when I made an account on my PHPBB (testing). Is this a setting wrong in PHPBB?

Failed sending email ::

DEBUG MODE

Line : 225
File : C:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\htdocs\forums\Huansuytin\includes\emailer.php

You shoudl open php.ini and set the mail parameters section correctly. Search on our forum 'php mail' for more information.

If you can answer yes to the following two questions you can definitely run mail direct from phpBB2 to send confirmation and watched emails, etc.

Do you have an SMTP server or an email account with SMTP access?
Do you know your username and password?

Within the phpBB2 administration console scroll straight to the bottom (management page I think) and you should see entries for entering your SMTP server address, user and password... enter them and DO NOT FORGET to check the box that ask to use this for sending mail...

You should *check* the smtp box and fill in the required information: SMTP server, username and password. Good luck

PS. If you need an SMTP server that should work fine with phpBB2 go to http://www.hotpop.com for a free pop3 account.

good luck :)
