    Hi,

    I’m a newbie to Modx and have been looking around for a CMS to replace Joomla (for the features) and Website Baker (for ease of use) which i currently use. I’ve made the decision to use Modx rather than Etomite, as i think it *seems* to want to offer more.

    However, the Contact Us form does not seem to work and i have done nothing but simply install Modx latest version. I get the message ’Could not instantiate mail function’.

    You can see the form page here http://www.creativeits.co.uk/sites/netxo/index.php?id=6

    As forms are a core part of any website, i need to make sure that these work correctly before i take the jump into Modx for my own site as well as my clients’.

    Also, does Modx have any snippets/chunks for an e-commerce store and a directory? I am using Zencart and phpld directory at the moment.

      I installed a little while ago, and I had some problems with the eForm snippet. You could try to update the eForm:

      EDIT:
      also, it seems that other people have seen that error as well. Read on from here:
