I'm getting this and I've found that it doesn't like my email address as name.last@gmail.com if i use a different one it submits. I posted this issue in the development forum for FormBuilder and I'm waiting to see if it gets figured out.

Have you configured/tested the CMSMailer Module?

yes i have.  I had to put in my username and password for the smtp server.  Maybe I'm missing something, but with OsCommerce for example, it is still able to send an email as long as it is on my server.  For some reason it wont go through without the User and pass.

I did a test email send in cms mailer, and i got it.  that was actually the problem earlier that i fixed with changing settings for CMS mailer.

Any ideas?

Where does the submitted form info get saved, is there a page where i can view the submitted forms?

These are the fields

Code: Select all

You have to add a field into your form to "store the data" in the database, then you need to configure the FormBrowser module to display the submitted forms.

cms_formsubmission *Store Results in Database

oooo ok, i was not aware that i need formbrowser also.  I got it installed, and setup.  I can actually see all the submitted forms that returned an error, however, i still get an error.  So I assume that the error is related to sending the email.  what could i be missing.... hmm

How is CMSMailer set up? Are you using SMTP, sendmail or mail?

Have you configured the settings for the email submission field with a template?

I have setup the template, I'm using a SMTP in cms mailer, since none of the others work anyways.  i have my username, pswd and I did a test in cmsmailer which worked. 

thanks
