Sending using my gmail account

:thumbsup: Hi,

I just want to post this in case someone is having the same problem and wants to know what worked for me.

The email sent from the zen-cart were not being received to my fake users using yahoo and hotmail email, but were Ok from fake gmail users.

I am using my gmail account to send the email from my zen-cart and using this configurations:

Configuration->Email Options
Email transport method = sendmail
Email linefeeds = LF
Send Emails = true

What was happening is that yahoo and hotmail were blocking the email and not even putting it on the "junk" folder.
When I added my zen-cart email to the contact list on these account, they appear.

I spent a couple of days with this, so I hope this can help someone.

Thanks!:thumbsup:
