    Default Email Setting Question

    I am currently using Startlogic as my host (this company sucks). And I think they are using qmail to send emails from the host server. My Zen Cart options are currently set to "PHP" transport method. Would it be more benefitial to set it to Qmail as well?

    You'll only know by trying, and testing.
    If it's already working fine, why break it?

    Because I was thinking "maybe" the tolerance may be different....Example the time-out delay...etc...

    Maybe I am just thinking too much....

    The qmail option is only offered as an option in case that's the only way your server can send emails.
    I think only 1% of Zen Cart users would ever choose that option ... if that. I rather suspect it's not used at all.

    Can you be more specific?

    Nothing's changed in 1.3.8 that should have any impact on its functionality.

    If you believe there to be a problem, please start a new thread about it in the Contributions area, with details of what's not working, along with error messages, etc.

    I just tested it on a 1.3.8 install, and it seems fine for me.
