Hi,

I've got 700 Members but when I try to mail them It won't work, It only works when I select the groups, MODERATOR and WEBMASTERS, If I select Registered Users it doesn't send the mail! Please help!

Sorry for my bad english

stratoz4,
There's a module called XMail that lets you specify how many emails are sent in a batch, so that you can send your 1000 messages in groups of 20 (or more, with luck). Do a site search for XMail and you might solve your problems

Hi Mark !

I guess yuo?re having a trouble relataded in the "readme.txt" file. Take a look:
==========================================================
Be sure to check whether your XOOPS version 2.05 is stable, following the step below:
Go to line 342 in file /class/criteria.php
If that line looks like this:

if ( is_numeric($this->value) ) { // || strtoupper($this->operator) == 'IN') ???

Change it to:

if ( is_numeric($this->value) || strtoupper($this->operator) == 'IN') {


What happens if you forget to check for it?
In the send email option, when you select one or two groups, you will always receive the 'no user selected' message.
========================================================

Mark, did you try to send your mails to a smaller group?
Does xmail freezes when you send 700 mails at once?

Yes I did, When I select Webmasters and Moderators then it works fine! But if I select Registered Users, It tries ( I Guess) To send the mail but It returns to the EMAIL USERS page..

Thanks for your reply!

Hi Mark !

Sugestion >- Make shure that your XOOPS is not with the bug related on ...xoops/class/criteria.php .

- Turn on php debug, on System Admin - Preferences

- Choose a user to send your mail but don?t forget to check the user profile to make shure that he(she) allows emails notifications.

- Send the email and look for any mistake, where and which in point.

Please tell us the results.

Regards
Claudia

How do you mean? I want to mail all of my users..
(I'm not using Xmail)

I'm not at home right now but I will turn php debug on when I'm at home, and will paste the "messages" here!

And is there a file to fix the bug??? xoops/class???

Thnx for your reply! (And sorry for the bad english)
