[Baypiggies] FYI, website email broken..

[Donna Snow]

Hi Guys,

Sorry, we moved into a new office on Hamilton and the work hasn't
slowed down any...

It looks like someone added smtp.gmail.com to the mailhost settings..
(accessible when logged in as manager.. go to site setup and click on
"Mail Settings"

Are we sure that '25' is the right port for sending gmail..can someone
with manager access check?

Also.. on the home page we are getting job postings.. I can turn off
comments on that page .. (if the group agrees) and put a note at the
bottom requesting that jobs be posted to the list..OR we create a
directory with a page that allows adding of comments as job postings.
(that'll open us up to some issues with comment spam) Let me know what
you want to do..I'll pop in and adjust..

I'm not real good with setting up the mail part of the system.. I'm
usually provided the information to add.. as long as we have somewhere
to send from that either doesn't require authentication..or we put in
the auth info in the Mail Settings for.. it should work.

If any of you are ever near Hamilton avenue (across from Westgate.. )
feel free to pop into our new office for a cup of coffee and a chat!
:-)

Donna
