prestashop test mail Error: please check your configuration

[vivedesigns]

Hi

im using PrestaShop™ 1.4.4.1

Since last saturday prestashop has stopped sending order confirmation emails, i checked and tried to run a test mail and got the error below

 

 

prestashop test mail Error: please check your configuration

i found an article which said try te below but that did not fix

There's a simple way to make sure what's wrong, your hosting's email setting or your prestashop's email setting

 

Just create a php file, paste this code (change $to 's value with your email) and run the file

 

<?php

$to = "[email protected]";

$subject = "Test mail";

$message = "Hello! This is a simple email message.";

$from = "[email protected]";

$headers = "From:" . $from;

mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

echo "Mail Sent.";

?>

 

If anyone can please assist thank you.
