[pmwiki-users] PHP/Linux/Hotmail: broken membership / mail() configuration

[J. Meijer]

Neil, 


I did notice a sensitivity to the body-text when testing. So your conclusion may be right: this may be spam. Yet my official Welcome message also doesn't get through. And it is really well-behaved :) 

I'm passing the info along and I'll get back with any result. 

Very much, thank you for taking a look.
