vb's on new server using old server's SMTP

[reb1rth]

i just recently moved a site using vbulletin to a new server and it seems to still be using the old server for email . . (sending mail great. . just using the wrong machine to do it) . . .

i looked in the php.ini because i am aware that vb uses php's mail() function . . but the "sendmail_path =" was commented out. . on both machines. . . apparently this isnt being used in this installation of php . . .

so my question is. . .

if the default SMTP server is not specified in php.ini . . then how does vbulletin know where to send mail? especially when its using another server for this . . . .

versions:

• vbulletin: 2.29
• php: 4.3.0

vBulletin doesn't know where to send email, PHP does.

Please upload a PHP file with this code in it and post the link:

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

I just see a white page at that link.

I haven't heard of that specific problem. Is this happening for all users? Any one user will only receive reply notifications? Have you tried confirming this problem with your email address?
