I am hostin multiple Wordpress sites on my Linode and I would like to know the best, or at least a solid and recommended, way to configure the server to send e-mails out as needed. A number of the sites have a "Contact Us" type widget, and right now it just fails when folks click on the submit button. Thanks - wg |

Code: apt-get install default-mta Or, for a couple useful utilities as well, Code: apt-get install mailutils |

Installed mail-utils with default configuration. Now getting this message: " your host may have disabled the mail() function..." |

There might be some PHP magic required to make that work... from what I gather, PHP's e-mail functionality is somewhat dismal. If you can do this: Code: echo "this is a test" | mail -s "test subject line" your_real_email_address@example.com ... then the e-mail server itself is working. Try rebooting, just to be sure? |
