it's on a real server.(godaddy) liux server,

I changed  phpmail,sendmail and smtp  in the "gobal configuration" of joomla mail setting,  all in right information, but still not working.
when submit from front-end, no erro   it display Invalid Address.

for my site have no price no shopping cart, the "ask a question about this product" is very important.
do you have mind what happened to my site?

thanks

Unfortunately issues with Godaddy are all too frequent and often never resolved. For their basic hosting they do not seem to have consistent server softwares or restrictions. I assume that registration emails are sent OK? You may be having issues with server anti-spam restrictions - such as here: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=95878.msg315899#msg315899

I have never had a problem using the standard Joomla php mailer - but then I don't use that host.

You could maybe edit components/com_virtuemart/controllers/productdetails.php to make a different from address for the email - around line 53 is the mail function.

Dear Mr. Kelvyn

thanks for your reply, the information is really very helpful for me.
so which hosting is much better?

for I have another site not in hosting, same problem, so do you know how to fix it, I'll ask the hosting owner check and fix it for me.

I'm not very good at code edit, very simple is ok, so you said on line 53, how should I change?


thanks
