I am having an email issue when trying to send email using the email field type in a form/content form. 

I have confirmed that:

  • Joomla is NOT using the same From and To email addresses (using J3.7.4 + Seblod 3.12.2) and no other duplicated emails in any fields
  • The form content type DOES create an article and delivers my message to the screen ( tho on the home page -- NOT my redirection page as set in the Form Content Config area)
  • I have tried both PHPMail and SendMail TESTs in the main config area and BOTH WORK.
  • I have confirmed that the email field: Send Email = ALWAYS within the Email field type
  • IMPORTANT ALSO --> WHEN I test with Joomla 3.6.5 + Seblod Version 3.10.0 -- IT WORKS, but does NOT redirect to the proper menu itemID either. This is the version I upgraded from.

hmmmm.... really scratching my head here. Anything else I can try?



FYI, I set Joomla error recording to MAX and this is what it records, but nothing seems to be email related:

I tried multiple tests and the ONLY one I could get to work (ie send an email) is if the FROM email is set as DEFAULT. 

Entering anything else did NOT work.

Also, I am seeing this error on the redirection field:  Warning: str_repeat(): Second argument has to be greater than or equal to 0 in /home3/wcimain/public_html/_j374/libraries/cms/form/field/menuitem.php on line 234

This could be a limitation of your hosting provider that only allows default email associated with your hosting to prevent spammers sending emails from hacked sites.
