My hosting company (surpasshosting.com) went and changed my server's security settings two days before Christmas which caused many of my pages to crash. I was able to do a curl workaround and fix that but now I finally figured out their change won't let the class use the php mail functions and it has to use smtp. Here is their email -
"There is a security setting that we have implemented that prevents the user "nobody" from sending out mail to remote addresses. (PHP and CGI scripts generally run as nobody if you are not using PHPSuexec and Suexec respectively.)
To workaround this please have your script connect to the SMTP service on the server to send the mail, rather than using PHP's built-in mail function. " Where do I start to get the access user class to use the SMTP service?
Thanks

sure you can use phpmailer for example, create some function called mail() and include this file. If you need further information please post to the new support forum: http://www.finalwebsites.com/forums/
