[BUG] IMSLP confirmation email being blocked

Post by cypressdome »

The recent change on the wiki requires users to be verified in order to edit pages (and apparently upload files). The originating address of the confirmation email shows up as apache@localhost. Such an address is probably blocked by some/many ISPs and some ISPs do not provide their users with the ability to control their email filtering to the level needed to allow the confirmation email to be delivered. I know this is the case with Bellsouth.net as the only option they give you is turning SpamGuard on or off and turning it off still didn't allow the confirmation email to be delivered. Can the apache@localhost address be replaced with a legitimate email address to avoid this problem?

Thanks,
