XF 2.1 Emails Not Sending

[Puffn]

Hello,

This has probably been posted before, but I cannot find any solutions to my problem. Emails have never been sending from my forum, they say they have been sent, but do not. I have tried using SMTP using Zoho email for a "noreply" email, that didn't work. Then I tried using Amazon SWS email and following a guide, that didn't work either.

I may be doing something wrong, but I just want emails to send. If anyone is able to help, that would be greatly appreciated.

If there are no errors in the XF ACP then investigation needs to occur from your server onwards.

Okay, I lied.

Have you tried using the default PHP mail instead of SMTP?
