digitalFAQ.com Forum - VBulletin 3.8.4 emails not sending on SiteGround [FIXED]

I admin a vBulletin site for a friend, and she uses SiteGround as her host.

For some reason, emails send through the "Contact Us" form at the bottom of the page,

and the mail option under

admincp
- Users
  - Send Email to Users

Would not send.

HOWEVER, the automatic thread notifications, PM email alerts, and other similar messages were working fine.

Based off the information I read from http://support.jodohost.com/showthread.php?t=1691, I took a chance and replaced all instances of vbmail() with mail() in the sendmessage.php file.

HOWEVER, again, there were problems. I would get this error message:

Code:

Warning: mail() expects at most 5 parameters, 7 given in [path]/sendmessage.php on line 312

and email still did not send.

On line 312, about halfway down the sendmessage.php file, I changed one instance of mail() back to vbmail()

PHP Code:


		
			
vbmail($destemail, $subject, $message, false, $vbulletin->GPC['email'], '', $name);

NOW IT WORKS! :)

Email can be sent through both the sendmessage Contact Us form, as well as the adminCP interface for admins to email all members.
