Is this something I have to change in the scripts or is this a problem I must ask my provider (maybe change smtp permissions). please help me out. (sorry for my bad english)
You need to check with your ISP/Hosting Company to find out what configurations you need to use for SMTP.

Most SMTP servers are set-up to execute based on your individual domain address, like the following:

Code:

yourdomain.com


So, you would use the following:

Code:

$db_smtp_server = 'yourdomain.com';


Some SMTP servers have a special SUB-domain naming convention, like the following:

Code:

smtp.yourdomain.com


OR

Code:

mail.yourdomain.com


So, you would use the following:

Code:

$db_smtp_server = 'smtp.yourdomain.com';


OR

Code:

$db_smtp_server = 'mail.yourdomain.com';


Also, you need to "turn-off" the $db_mail_path by simply using:

Code:

$db_mail_path = '';


OR to make double sure that it is not being referenced in your scripts, use the following:

Code:

#$db_mail_path = '';


But, the best thing to do is CONTACT your PROVIDER and ask them what the EXACT SMTP configurations are you need to use.
