  Well, the site’s in Hebrew.
  According to OpenGeek, 0.9.5.1 will have a special option in its installer for setting the collation (if I’m not mistaken).
  This is a production site and when 0.9.5.1 will be released, I will make a clean install of it, and will copy-paste all the content of the site. I will have to work hard in order for the switch to the new upgrade will be made as smooth as possible, so I do not want to make the move twice.
  
  So THIS is why I can’t upgrade right now.

  Now that’s the first good, legitimate reason yet for not upgrading immediately... congrats!

  Well, Thank you!
  I’m glad I made the first place!
  I want to thank my parents, who made me who I am. Without them, I wouldn’t be here today!

  Hi, if my question has been answered in the forum, my apologies. Just tell me and I’ll go digging - I don’t have the time to read through 14 pages at the moment.
  The way I’ve been handling forms for years is that something like a contact form has 2 recipients. One email goes to the company with a message like "The contact form on xxx has been filled out.. below is what the user filled out.". Another email goes to the user as a confirmation with a different message "Thank you for contacting us. Blah blah blah. Here is a copy of the information we received and we will be in touch when we feel like it".
  From looking at the eForm documentation, I can’t see a way to have 2 emails based on 2 separate chunks as templates.
  Any ideas?
  Thanks

  It can be done with the events in eForm.

  So does this means I’m eligible for knowing if eForm can work on 0.9.2 ..?

  eForm should work just fine in 0.9.2 but if you’re planning to use it’s events be aware that some of the examples here in the forums may not work for you because of api functions that only appeared in 0.9.5.

  Well then, just for you all to know, that the events functions, can’t be in a different snippet the eForm (at least not the eFormOnBeforeFormMerge function).
  So I just pasted the function into the eForm snippet, and my problem was fixed.
  
  Another thing that is different in 0.9.2 from 0.9.5, is the charset variable from the config, which is being used in order to set the mail charset:
  In 0.9.2 it’s $modx->config[’etomite_charset’];
  In 0.9.5 it’s $modx->config[’modx_charset’];
  (it might be ’charset_etomite’ and ’charset_modx’, I don’t remember
  
  Cheers.

  I too receive the dreaded "Could not instatiate mail function" error. However, only on a specifc address. The site is located at http://tlaer.nl. Now, if I have the snippet send email to [email protected], everything works and a mail gets sent. If I have the snippet send mail to [email protected], I get the "Could not instantiate mail function" error.

  Any hints?
