Drupal not sending email after new user registration or requiest for new password

dr.z - October 2, 2008 - 16:12

For reasons I do not understand the system stopped sending emails to newly registered users or when users change password?
Require e-mail verification when a visitor creates an account check box is checked and the site used to do that before.
Suggestions, please.

Check the spam folder?

mattyoung - October 2, 2008 - 16:45

Yahoo puts my drupal email in spam folder and I keep thinking drupal didn't send email when it acutally did.

Also, check to make sure your smtp server is work by sending a test email.

Indeed, the registration

user email not sending for sure

websi7 - October 15, 2008 - 08:42

New users do NOT get emails BUT email goes to ADMIN OK

I have checked SPAM settings and mail def does NOT arrive so is not being sent

Member is on file and WAITING ACTIVATION since that is the setting

ADMIN gets notification of new user and user is supposed to get 2 emails once to confirm the application and then when approved by ADMIN

Any leads please to fix?

Hi All,
I am having a similar problem to Maurice. I am developing 6.(2?) locally on MAMP using OSX 4.11. Everything else has gone super smooth. I have installed these modules:
cck, image, img_assist 2, tinymce (v.2) views and wysiwyg.

I have narrowed the scope down to (I think) /modules/user/user.module file line #2274 which says:

function user_register_submit($form, &$form_state) {

I believe it must be this function which is not sending the email upon completion of the registration form by an anon user.

Can anyone confirm or deny this?

TIA.

I think i have narrowed it down even furthur to not having smtp configured on my local. :]

I'm having the same problem. I can confirm that drupal sends emails out with the contact form, and I've tested sendmail independently on my host. It works... but just not with the creation of a new account. Everything was working for me with no problems up until a few days ago. Upon the creation of a new account nothing shows up in the recent log entries; no account created, no email sent. Yet the new account is there in my users list, awaiting verification.

Coincidentally, mailman_manager has stopped sending emails to interact with my mailing list. I'm wondering if there's a problem with system_send_email_action but am unable to troubleshoot. I've got the Email Registration module installed, and have activated/deactivated it to no effect.

Any insight or advice is warmly welcomed

Same for me in Drupal 6.9

logicalpat - September 21, 2009 - 15:15

I seem to be suffering from the same problem in Drupal 6.9. All the same symptoms as well, it was working fine last week now all of a sudden user registration emails and password reset emails aren't sent out. Anyone have any insight into this?

I found this thread which talks about a similar problem but I have yet to try out it's solution of the SMTP Authentication Support module.

Has anyone had any resolution to this issue?

describes exactly what happened to me...6.9...admin email just stopped working. client emails go out instantly but no admin emails.

I've tried using User Register Notify too. nothing.

notification emails suddenly stopped sending

bcc - July 15, 2009 - 00:34

I'm having the same issue. My D6 installation has been working fine for about 8 months now, and just this week when I added a registration allow rule and removed the admin approval step the system no longer sends an email for people registering accounts. I can see them sitting in the approval queue... but that defeats the purpose of removing the admin approval part.

Can anyone help with this issue? It looks like there are a few of us experiencing this ghost in the system.

Thanks guys :)

I'm having a similar with

margaridacarvalho - July 16, 2009 - 08:31

I'm having a similar with drupal 6. I added the registration possibilty to users. They can register, I can see them in users approval queue and they receive the e-mail saying that they account request is waiting for admin approval, but when I activate their account they don't receive the e-mail with the account details (username and password).
Does anyone know what's happening here?

How do you make that change

rebaths - August 18, 2009 - 01:55

mail to new users

labtjd - November 27, 2009 - 18:24

Has any convenient fix to this problem be given?
It seems that we should be able to send emails to new users without rewriting the code.
But if we have to rewrite the code, then is there some clear set of instructions for doing so?
