Description
I'm not sure how far back this goes but updating to 4.7.30 did not resolve it. When registering for an event there is a mailing error when the outgoing mail settings are set to php mail(). It appears in the error message it is trying to use SMTP event though it is set to mail(). Sending email through CIVImail does not seam to be affected. When I change the Outbound mail to SMTP and enter our mailing credentials everthing works but SMTP limits us to 30 emails per minute.
Here is the error message
Mailing Error
An error occurred when CiviCRM attempted to send an email (via SMTP). If you received this error after submitting on online contribution or event registration - the transaction was completed, but we were unable to send the email receipt.
The mail library returned the following error message:
mail() returned failure
This is probably related to a problem in your Outbound Email Settings (Administer CiviCRM » System Settings » Outbound Email), OR the FROM email address specifically configured for your contribution page or event. Possible causes are:
- Your Sendmail path is incorrect.
- Your Sendmail argument is incorrect.
- The FROM Email Address configured for this feature may not be a valid sender based on your email service provider rules.
