CE4 CRG Will not send email

I just installed the new CE4 CRG per directions.  When I tested this before I sent the link to a client, I selected a photo.  The second I selected a photo and hit the option to send an email to me, I get a message that says

---------------------------------
Something Went Wrong


Please try again later, or contact the photographer if this problem persists.

---------------------------------
I really need this to work now because there is no way to identify the image by file name any longer, as you could in CE3

BTW, my sole reason for upgrading from CE2 and CE3 was the mail engine just stoped working on day.  Thought it was better to upgrade to fix........not so lucky I guess.

Need help fast.

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

Be sure to include links to galleries that aren't working so Matt and Ben have something to look at. It will also help to enable guest access to ttg-be

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

Thanks Rod,  You are just up the road from me.  Any help you can be would be appreciated.  Also any clue were I edit the text that shows up under my gallery name?  I'm sure it is there but I did not jump off of the page at me.

Here is the link to the gallery:  www.mystudiorimagesgohere.com/photos/Lena

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

UPDATE:  I changed the mail type from SMTP to mail.  The error message went way but no email sent.  I am using Google Apps.

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

need a login to view the gallery.

If you're talking about the page text, if you're using Publisher, you can add that when creating or editing an album. It's under the Content tab.
There's an option to include template text too.

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

UPDATE:  Contacted Google Apps for Business and changed the port setting to port 25 with ssl enabled.  This now works.  If this had not worked, they were ready to create a special relay gateway.  These guys are simply great!!!

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

UPDATE:  Reset the computer and it looks like all functions are present now.  Several emails have started flowing.  Hats off the the TTG team.  This is much nicer to use than version 2 and 3.

Rod,  I don't use publisher.  My guess is that is the only way to edit the text box that is in the gallery.

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

Well, we are now back to not sending emails again from the CE4.  I am now getting the message "something went wrong, please contact the photographer. 

According to google, everything is ok on their end.

Any help from Mat or Ben

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

Could not use gmail direct for some reason.  Used bluehost acct and then an autoforwarder to gmail.  Not clean but it works just fine.

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

If using Bluehost's email, make sure that the address you're using as the vendor/sending address is set up as an account in your Bluehost control panel.  That doesn't mean you need to use the email address with Bluehost, but rather tells Bluehost that the address exists.  Emails sent will then have the email address correctly set and will be more likely to get through.

Re: CE4 CRG Will not send email

1) What is the login for the Lena gallery?
2) Can we provide test feedback to try and get a better look at the underlying error?

Bluehost doesn't allow sending via SMTP.  Luckily the Bluehost 'mail' function works well.  See my earlier reply.
