Manual talk:$wgEmergencyContact

Don't know if this is the right place, but ... I use php mail function, because $wgSMTP doesn't work for me. This results in mails with

X-Mailer: MediaWiki mailer From: admin@XXX.de Message-Id: <20081114114447.60F0BA385E98@YYY.YYY.de> Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 12:44:47 +0100 (CET) Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: nobody@localhost.localdomain

as header. So php is running as user "nobody" on the server (YYY) and Wiki-Domain is XXX.

Is it possible to set "Sender" to admin@XXX.de ?

My LocalSettings for mail are:

$wgServer	   = "http://www.XXX.de"; $wgServerName	   = "XXX.de"; $wgEnableEmail     = true; $wgEnableUserEmail = true; $wgEmergencyContact = "admin@XXX.de"; $wgNoReplyAdress = $wgEmergencyContact; $wgPasswordSender  = "admin@XXX.de"; $wgEnotifUserTalk = true; # UPO $wgEnotifWatchlist = true; # UPO $wgEmailAuthentication = true; $wgEmailConfirmToEdit = true; $wgUserEmailUseReplyTo = true;
 * 1) Server
 * 1) Email Settings

Thanks in advance - Martin

I do not know how this looks to others but to me it is unclear whether this address will be shown to visitors if something goes wrong or if it is only used internally to send e-mail. An important distinction, if you ask me...--194.109.234.123 23:08, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
