Forgotten Password emails not getting sent

[cmurphy060960]

Hi Esmond,

Just went LIVE with LI this past week. Everything working nicely.

We had one customer who had trouble with their login credentials - with multiple previous customer account setup/login successes I'm assuming it was a user error. Just to make sure the PW reset (from the login screen) was working - I ran a test:

No email was generated - for admin or customer.

The success message reads only "You have successfully reset your password." (see screen shot)

thinking it should read ... "You have successfully reset your password. A temporary pW was sent to your email address." (I'm sure I can find this in the code and change it)

I checked (this time) to see if the "Forgotten Password" Admin & Customer emails were enabled and they are.

is the email entered correctly and there's an email template setup too? It should work alright for password reset email.

Everything appears setup correctly.

If I change "test" user PW through admin panel I get both admin and customer email notification re: "Account Updated"

Even if the users email is entered incorrectly (in which case the user gets an alert that the email address doesn't exist) At any rate as admin I should still get a notification.

If I log in as "test" user and change PW through the users account page, no emails are sent - not sure if this is expected.

So emails are going out for all other notifications - just not "Forgot Password"
So doesn't seem like a server issue.

As a side note - I looked at the System > Email set up page... I'm using Mail (instead of SMTP) I did not enter the Mail Parameter initially - as mail was being sent - as a test I put in my email company address, but didn't correct the issue. As a matter of fact with the email parameter entered - admin stopped getting notifications when user PW is updated by admin.

I'm also testing this on a clean install - in case it was something I created.

Would it be helpful to give you user/customer access to this install for testing purposes?

I may be missing the obvious here

Note: I did a PW reset from admin login page and received a PW reset email.

Could you possibly drop me a PM with your admin login details and FTP login details? I can have a look at the issue for you

Getting this when I try to send PM

Some users couldn’t be added as they have disabled private message receipt.

Sorry about that, had PM disabled. Please try again.
