Hi mobilego,

Please find below the work around for this problem.

You need to edit line 71 of includes/functions_messenger.php:

Original code:
$this->addresses['to'][$pos]['name'] = trim($realname);

Change this to:
$this->addresses['to'][$pos]['name'] = ''; //trim($realname);

Thanks and Regards,

Hemant Batra

Will this allow the registration emails to be sent for new users as well?

Hey this worked for me.

My forum was not sending out confirmation emails so no one would be able to join.

This fixed it for me - I am interested to find out why?

Hi mobilego,

Please provide the answers to the following questions.

Does your board send any emails at all? Has it ever send? What method of user account activation have you set in the ACP -> General -> Board configuration -> User registration settings, "By User" ?
