Hi hikashop,

I've got a problem with sending the order confirmation e-mails in hikashop.
Sending e-mails in joomla isn't a problem. So, the e-mail configuration in joomla should be alright.
I use the same e-mail configuration in Hikashop, but when ordering something i get the following message:

[smtp server error: Client does not have permissions to send as this sender]

Please, can you help me?

with kind regards,
Tom

Hi Tom,
The best solution will probably be to firstly check this thread :

HikaShop uses the standard joomla email sending functions. If you have a problem only on that email, it means that the problem is the content of the email.
Fist, you should check your different settings in the hikashop configuration under the tab mail. The encoding might not be correct for your email server, it could the ad name option , etc.
What you could try also is to send an email via the interface in sales when changing an order information. Does that work ? If yes, then, the problem is really the content of the order creation notification.
It could also be that your hosting company doesn't allow you to send more than one email per thread and at the end of the checkout, two emails are sent (1 to the customer and 1 to the vendor). So you might want to check on that with your hosting company.

Thank you a lot! I'll take a look at that!

I also recognized that the e-mail adress, were the order confirmation sends from, is different than it should be.
Were can I change this?

The email address can be configured either in the email itself via the menu System>Emails, but if left empty, it will use the setting in the Emails section of the configuration.

thank you, It is fixed now! :lol:
