: How to configure Drupal email functionality on GoDaddy server I have Drupal 6 installed on a GoDaddy server. The email functionality used to work fine, but about a month ago they moved my site

If you haven't installed the SMTP module, get it here.

Then under Configuration->System->SMTP Authentication Support:

Set the value of field SMTP server to: relay-hosting.secureserver.net

Set the SMTP Port to: 25

Don't use any encrypted protocol. Also leave the fields "username" and "password" empty.

You could try Drupal's SMTP module with GoDaddy's outgoing mailserver. This forces Drupal to send email using GoDaddy's mailserver instead of PHP's mail() function, which is probably disabled on the new GoDaddy server, as is common with shared hosting packages.


Download the SMTP module for Drupal 6.
Copy the files included in the download into a directory named "smtp" in
your Drupal sites/all/modules/ directory.
Download the PHPMailer package and place it in a directory named "phpmailer" in your /sites/all/modules/smtp directory.
Login as site administrator.
Enable the SMTP Authentication Support module under Administer -> Site
building -> Modules.
Fill in settings for your SMTP (outgoing mail) server on the Administer -> Site configuration -> SMTP
Authentication Support page. To send mail through GoDaddy's server, use 'smtpout.secureserver.net' for the address, turn encryption (SSL) off, authentication on, set the port to 80, and use your GoDaddy account email address and password (the same ones you use to log in to their webmail service).
