Weird... the Mail::Sendmail module gives this error if it cannot find any recipients in the list it has been given.

So what are the addresses on the list? Are they normal, standard email addresses, or is there anything odd about their formatting?

Well, those addresses certainly look fine... have you tried using MailTransfer debug and looking at the error log?

Hi everyone. New MT user, most everything is working great. Except this, of course.

Apache 1.3.24, Windows XP. I have MT 2 installed and am running a site at http://bored.overnow.com/ with it... no problems. However, I'm testing the "send a notification" feature, and am getting a strange error. Here it is:

Error sending mail (Error sending mail: No recipient! ); try another MailTransfer setting?

I have two e-mail addresses in my notifications area, and the e-mail is eventually received (although my Yahoo account hasn't gotten the mail yet... probably just lag on their servers), but I still get this error. I installed the Mail::Sendmail module to use SMTP, and have my MailTransfer and SMTPServer settings in mt.cfg correct.

Any thoughts on why this is happening? I'd also like to know how to alter the e-mail template that is sent by MT, but that's secondary at this point.

Thanks!

Well, you tell me - the first is dan@overnow.com, which is my address, and the second was onp@yahoo.com, which is my secondary account.

In an interesting side note, I still have yet to receive that notification at my Yahoo address, but I have received other mail there. I wonder if Yahoo is just being selectively slow, or if something else is up.

I'm also getting this exact error with the notifications feature. Comment emails go out ok, and when I send a notification for a new blog post, the main email address receives the Update email, but nobody on the notification list receives the email. Something doesn't appear to be parsing correctly. I only deduce that because the notification is sent out to the author's email address just fine.

For example, the author email address for my blog is furo@furo.com, and I have two addresses on the notification list that are different. One is another of my own addresses, and the other is that of a visitor to my site. Neither of the added addresses receive the emails.

I have the blog setup to use SMTP, as it is on an NT 4.0 server and does not have sendmail available. When setting MailTransfer to debug in the mt.cfg file, I see no STDERR file on the web server when I send a notification, which does not result in an error in that case. Changing it back to SMTP and sending a notification once again produced the error as follows:

Error sending mail (Error sending mail: No recipient! ); try another MailTransfer setting?
