Moved from one Centos server to another. New server is brand-new install of Centos 6.3 64-bit. Forum is up and running, but only problem is that email notifications aren't working. When I go to the email diagnostic in the control panel, it always fails with the following error:
This happens no matter what settings I have in the SMTP settings. On the old server, the settings were completely vanilla (localhost, 25, and no auth). I tried those settings, along with every other combination, with no luck. When I am in Webmin in the server, I can send email directly from that interface, so the mailserver itself is functional:
This is a test message from Webmin, sent with the settings :
Mail server: Mail server: Postfix
Sent via: Local mail server
SMTP login: None
SMTP authentication: Default
I've looked through the php.ini files on both sides, and can find no differences. I loaded up the old php.ini onto the new server just to see if that would work, and it didn't help. I reloaded the class_mail.php file just in case it was corrupt in some way, but that didn't fix it either. Thanks for any potential suggestions, as my forum is dead in the water until I fix this (no new users can sign up). Is there any other logfile where I can see more details about what exactly is going wrong?
