Magento 1.9 – Enable Sending Emails

magento-1.9

I am trying to enable emails sending in magento 1.9, so I enabled the contact us flag from the admin panel and I set all the addresses.

My Environment is:
Server: EC2 , Domain: Godaddy, Magento 1.9

I also added the MX records to godaddy.

But now magento not sending any email when I test contact us page.

Note: Also I setup the SMTP setting from admin->configuration->advance->mail

Any extra steps?

Thank you.

Your problem comes from the SMTP configuration and the queued emails !

Since Magento 1.9.1, the emails are not being sent directly during checkout but instead are being queued. The queue is being processed via your Magento cronjob.

The contact us dont work, this one comes from the smtp issue if you hanevn't some error in your contacts module !.

I suggest you to install this free extension SMTP Pro, set the SMTP config connexion like Gmail for exemple, and dont forget to set Queue Usage to never, save and your problem is solved.

Is there a mail server configured an running on the server? You can try and check that by making a small PHP script. Here you can see how you can do that: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7667208/how-to-check-if-a-mail-server-exists-or-not

$errno = 0;$errstr = '';
$fp = fsockopen("localhost", 25, $errno, $errstr, 5);
if (!$fp) {
    echo "No mail server responded on this server on port 25, validate your configuration";
}

Magento – Order emails not sending to Sales Representative (store email address)

There are two separate sections that handle the Magento emails:

Store Email Addresses define addresses for senders of mails sent by the system. (General, Sales, Support)
Sales Emails define which emails are sent and by which sender (as well as sending a copy to an admin if you would like to receive one).
System->Configuration->General->Store Email Addresses are only the sender addresses that will appear in the emails sent. These fields have nothing to do with admins receiving emails or order notifications. It's just a place to define sender email/return address for the system to use in the header. General Sales, Sales Representative, Support, etc.
System->Configuration->Sales->Sales Emails is where you configure which of the Store Email addresses you specified in the Store Email Addresses section will be the sender of New Orders, Comments, Invoices, etc. By default, customers receive new order emails from the Sales Representative email address defined under Store Email Addresses

Sales Emails is where you configure the system to send a copy of an order to you as the admin, under (Send Order Email Copy To:)
