URL to your eFiction: http://www.koishii.net/narnia
Version of eFiction: eFiction version 3.4.3
Have you bridged eFiction, if so with what?: No
Version of PHP: PHP Version 4.3.11
Version of MySQL: MySQL 4.1.14
Have you searched for your problem: No
If so, what terms did you try: N/A
State the nature of your problem: Fist, the contact.php page is not working. I suspect that this may be related to an error in SMPT, because I am also receiving errors when I try to send "validation" messages for stories. This is what I have for SMTP:
Host: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Username: angelike_riddle@yahoo.com
Password: yes, it's my correct password
Is there a way to NOT use the SMTP? How do you turn sendmail on?
Do you have a test account for us? No. Should I?

Try leaving the SMTP settings completely blank and see if the mail works.

W00t! It worked! How strange. I had tried leaving everything blank before, but it didn't work... Well, I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. I wish I could get SMTP to work, but whatever. As long as it works.

Thank you.  πŸ˜†
