Problem with Form, sending emails [SOLVED]

[rentasite]

why don't you give people here some more detail about,
 for e.g  the form script or the form html code?

Maybe u didnt understand. The phrase "ran a simple mail script in PHP" wasnt mine. It was my provider's answer, for "PHP mail function".

SO IM'TALKING ABOUT THE DEFAULT ELXIS FORM. No other form, no other script.


Thanks

what about this?

have you connect a user with that contact?which one? has he a correct email address?
have you setup correctly your email account(or other user's which is connected with that contact form) in users administrator

and this from babis1 ?

components-contacts-manage contacts-select one account -set the user to no user-write the  infos -in the position email write your email adress- write a validate seo title-save it-go to menu select one menu (your visible menu pe main - new  - link contact item - give the name pe contact us-select the contact link -save it

have you done these above?

this doesn't mean that you don't use other form- script or that you use elxis default function, never mentioned before what is the form that don't works for you.
Anyway...

P.S have in mind that people try to help you...  that's why we ask you so many things, also none else have mention a problem with form contact in elxis , think that may be your fault.
From the details that you mention here is not quit clear were is your problem ... must be more specific... must be sure that you have publish  a contact in elxis the proper way ... and so on.
From the first time i suspected that you haven't publish correct your contact in elxis, i asked and got no answer,
babis1 also mention that.. no comment again. look at the quotes please.
maybe there the answer to your problem.

Guys, first of all i must say that its not the 1st Elxis installation i have proceeded. The problem is very mysterious for me also.

I tried anything that i could try. Especially what babis1 said (quote).

components-contacts-manage contacts-select one account -set the user to no user-write the  infos -in the position email write your email adress- write a validate seo title-save it-go to menu select one menu (your visible menu pe main - new  - link contact item - give the name pe contact us-select the contact link -save it

- As u can see in the pic, i have set the Mailer to "PHP Mail function" in the site's Configuration area.
- I have tried also "Sendmail".
- YES, the email accounts are set ok.
- YES, i also tried "NO USER" in "Manage Contacts".


*** ...and im talking about the default Elxis form. No other script, no nothing ***

your global is good, in your site you see the contact form if you go to the link contact us? when you write something and send it after gives you the thanks page? try to take off the security image.Your elxis installation is on server that in the past you had install other elxis with no problems or is in a new server?

SOLVED !!!!!!!!!!!

There was an option on WHM, that was checked. That option should be unchecked! And it was unchecked... until some VPS's software was upgraded. Don't know really know what upgrade... TURNED ON the option seen below: 

Prevent 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.)

So check your form's once again !!! Cause u never know...
