Question

When doing registration of a new user by default a registration email is sent.

Due to the fact that I'm having problems sending emails from my cygwin installation to our company SMTP email server I now want to switch off the registration email notification.

Before I start browsing the scripts I wanted to now if there's a simple way to this?

regards

Arno

I've done that already but it didn't stop registration from trying to send emails...

I've figured out the cause of this problem:

Sometimes the virus scanner is blocking port 25 by default. But email definitely has to use that port - so...

Switch off any virus scanner service and its working fine.
