Ive just installed the Guestbook ver6.x-10-rc1 on a clean Drupal 6.2 install.
My problem is that I cannot get it to email a notification when new entry is made in the Guestbook.

According to the error log "Error sending e-mail (from myemail@mydomain.com to New guestbook entry)" it uses the e-mail address entered in "Site Information". But regardless of what I may change that to, it still wont work.

The new member e-mail notifications work when I new member creates an account on the site though.

Any suggestions?....something I may be missing?
Thanks much

Did I post this in the wrong area?

Another variant of this problem - or probably another, similar problem?

The same versions of Guestbook and Drupal, PHP 4.3.10-19, Apache 2.0.54, MySQL 4.0.24, running as test system on a virtual host.

I don't get such error messages, but whenever I (as authenticated user) post a new entry to the website guestbook or a user's guestbook (both the same problem), then I (as admin) get an email from the mailer deamon of the real host system:

Subject: failure notice

By the way, the entries are perfectly stored int the guestbooks.
