Could not initate the function mail()

Someone has experience with formit?

I just installed it with Catcha.
While I filled up the fileds and send it, I got that error message


An error occurred while trying to send the email. Could not instantiate mail function.


It's a bit funny because if I use the function mail() in a snipet, it works.

Some one has a idea how I can configure Formit or SMTP section?

Thanks cheers

What is your FormIt call? Sometimes a typo can cause such an error.

Hello
Thank for your answer.

My call is:

My code is withn a chunk. Should it in a snipest?

No, using a chunk to call FormIt is fine! Did you already try to use an chunk as template for &emailTpl?

Hello
I just tryed it but the problem is still present (

To use SMTP, just set the SMTP System Settings (put smtp in the search filter box at the upper right of the System Settings grid). Once the settings are correct, FormIt, and any other email in MODX, will use SMTP automatically.

I would also turn off Captcha until you get the email working, in case it's the problem.

You might install the QuickEmail extra to help you diagnose any email problems.

Just to be sure. Try to set the &emailTo to a valid and existing email. And also as Bob mentioned drop the math-hook.

Well done!!!
It's work fine since I use SMTP

Thank for your help

Hello.

I would like to know if there is a way to have a chunk which will be use to send an confirmation to the sender/person who filled up the form.

As &emailTpl=`emailTpl`, but one for the confirmation?
