Sending mailing to Testrecipients, but dont receive any...

Hi

Ive got installed OpenEMM on a Virtualserver, running with CentOS and Plesk.
I have created myself as a recipient with following Options:
- Mail format: HTML
- Mailing List:
mailinglist,
checked E-Mail Option,
Type: Test-recipient

Then I created a new Mailing without the Wizard:
- Option Mailing List: mailinglist
- Option Campaign: none
- Option Type: normal mailing
- Option Archive: not checked
- Option Template: none
- Target Groups: none

Then i created some content like "miojsdgoainsdgop". By clicking on "Preview", the mailing is still empty. - thats the first problem.

Afterwards i sent the mail "Send test mails to the test recipients"

Because i have got Plesk installed, i cant use sendmail. (fails if i try to start sendmail)
Plesk uses qmail instead.

Someone got an idea?

There is also Postfix installed on that server.
May it work with that?

From the Install Guide:
OpenEMM relies on a SMTP server to send out mails and to accept bounces and replies. OpenEMM uses Sendmail for that task by default, because Sendmail is a proven, secure, and fast MTA. However, if you do not want to (or can not) use Sendmail, you can disable its use after installation of OpenEMM. In this case OpenEMM uses an internal SMTP server (like the Windows version of OpenEMM). If you use the internal SMTP server of OpenEMM, please make sure that no other MTA (like Postfix, qmail or Exim) is active on your machine!
-> Either Sendmail or the internal SMTP server of OpenEMM

Ah, alright.
It has been my fault: i forgot to execute the "sendmail-stop.sh".
Now it seems to work properly

Thanks for your help!

Code: Select all

sendmail-disable.sh
