SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. Failed to connect to server

Hi,

I changed the mailer in my Joomla 6 project from php to smtp. Testmails are working, but nor the checkout-process. If I am finishing the checkout-process I am getting a message: "SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. Failed to connect to server". But Joomla itself is connected to the server.

Does somebody has an idea?

Best regards Uwe

Hi, Phoca Cart does not use any own mail solution, it uses Joomla mail feature which can be set in Joomla Globar configuration. So if you set SMTP in Joomla, Phoca Cart then uses this Joomla mail feature. :idea:
