I have created accounts for everyone at my company for our wiki create with Mediawiki.

I have also tried to make sure that my email is confirmed so that I may notifications from the wiki.

Though, when I go in and click the link to make sure the wiki has sent the confirmation code, I do not seem to ever get the email.

Is there a setting that I need to change to make sure Mediawiki can send emails? Here is my LocalSettings.php email information.

$wgEmergencyContact = "apache@files.devplateau.com";
$wgPasswordSender = "wiki@devplateau.com";
$wgEnotifUserTalk = false; # UPO
$wgEnotifWatchlist = false; # UPO
$wgEmailAuthentication = true;

Did you check the spam folder? Emails end up there many times.

@Reception123 I have done this is with different email accounts. For a gmail account, the confirmation came through in spam but for the email account that I would like to use, and the email domain that all of my users will be using for their accounts; it does not show up in spam.

I have also checked that it did not automatically get sent to trash on that mail domain (company domain).

Bumping for visibility.

Also, wanted to add that I have opened all smtp ports on this server and reconfigured postfix so that hopefully it saw my mail server. No luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
