YAF 1.9.6.1
.Net 4.0
SQL Server 2008 R2
IIS6

I have not customized the product other than themes as well as using an existing membership provider integrated with another app. YAF is running under an existing site.

I see another user having issues with watch emails and am not sure if it is related. I can send direct, pm, emails without issue so email settings should be setup correctly.

What's the process to troubleshoot email sending?

Next steps?

I appreciate the help.

Can anyone direct me on the best way to troubleshoot the sending of watch/moderator emails?

Why would some emails work but not others?

I am having the same issue as well. Same setup, except using IIS 7. The e-mails go out for forum signup, but no notifications are going out for moderation messages.

I found that if I added a specific user as a moderator using the Moderator button, the emails were sent. However, roles setup with moderator access did not receive the emails.

I had a few other things going on that stopped emails form being sent. I downloaded some updated DLL's from another thread and started to get error messages in the admin log that said I had some domain rejection issues from my SMTP server.

Hope this helps.
