Sorry, the message was not sent. The server may be down!

using v.13 with CMSMailer 1.73.10

I configured the mailer module and successfully sent a test message from the mailer mod page, but when I try to send a message from the {contact_form email="myaddress@mydomain.com"} tag, I get the "sorry" message above.  (yes, I used my actual email address in the form tag on my actual page)

ideas??

[tsw]

actually contact form doesnt use cmsmailer.

contact form is just a basic plugin and uses php mail() function.

have you tried using feedbackform, its a fullblown solution for all forms.

hope this helps

ahhh, thanks...  I've never worked with the php mail() function, so it looks like I'll have to learn a bit...

I'll also take a look at the Feedback Form module.

Thanks for your help!!
