fsockopen

[George]

My server does not allow fsockopen(). It gives me an error message

Warning: fsockopen() has been disabled for security reasons in /var/www/domains/x.matrixbay.com/docs/mambo/administrator/components/com_phpshop/classes/phpmailer/class.smtp.php on line 105
SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.

Is there any way i can solve this problem.

So you're using the php function mail for better compatibility.

I have tried this fix and I have tried forcing SMTP authorization, but I cannot get this to send the emails out.

Neither the order notification for teh administrator, nor the receipts are going out of the server.

I am using 1.1a.

Any help will be HUGELY apprecaited.
