The problem only occur when the AdminEmail address contains a dash (-) like in mymail@my-url.com. Could it be possible that eZ doesnt allow dashes in email adresses? I know it sounds crazy but I have to make sure... Regards, Nicklas

What if you try to send it using the 'mail' command? -- Amos Documentation: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation FAQ: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/faq

However, would you please elaborate a little on the part about trying with the mail-command? Do you mean that I should change the SMTP-settings for eZ in some way? Or just to try to send a mail via an ordinary php-page using php:s mail command? Regards, Nicklas
