Title: Problem sending follow up emails
Post by: office2 on July 18, 2006, 09:04:27 am

Hi,

I think I've set up everything properly, but my follow up emails don't seem to be going out as planned - The welcome email goes out fine, and I've set the follow up to go out after 24 hours [I set it to 0] ... I got my welcome email a little over 25 hours ago but nothing since.4

Does anyone have any idea what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Richard

Were you able to set up the "dailymail cron job" required to automatically send the followups?  If enabled on the Configuration page, you should receive a "Dailymail Report' when the task runs each day.

Here's the help page:

It's possible the "/usr/bin/wget" program used by the task is not available on your server.  A popular alternative, curl, might be tried:

Code: [Select]

0 0 * * * curl -o /dev/null http://example.com/mail/dailymail.php?pw=YourDailyMailPass 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null
If you still can't get it to work I recommend asking your host to help.  Mention that you would like to "browse" to a web page each day and provide your dailymail URL, ie:

Code: [Select]

http://example.com/mail/dailymail.php?pw=YourDailyMailPass
