error=Recipient names must be specified
Ok folks, I have been trying for days to get the email working correctly to no avail. I've done a search and followed all the advice found, but still keep running into problems.
When I add files from the adm. manager, I get no error messages on adding links, though no mail is getting sent either.
When adding files from the webpage, I get this when I validate the link:

its-here... Recipient names must be specified its-here... Recipient names must be specified
===========================================
Ok, here is what I have configured, tell me please what I need to change:

from links.cfg

# PATH of sendmail. # SMTP Server
$db_mail_path = '/usr/sbin/sendmail'; $db_smtp_server = '';

# Email address of the administrator. BE SURE TO SET!
$db_admin_email = 'staley@fbnet.net';

# Notify visitors automatically when their links are validated?
$db_email_add = 1;

# Notify visitors automatically when their links are modified?
$db_email_modify = 1;

# Log all outgoing messages? Put the full path to a logfile and make sure it
# exists and is writeable (chmod 666 -rw-rw-rw-). This logfile can get pretty
# big!
$db_mailer_log = '/home/its-here/public_html/cgi-bin/admin/email.log';
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
BTW the email log is coming up empty, is that because no mail is being sent, or do I have the path wrong, never done this kind of thing before, can't you tell Smile
