Hello, thanks for sharing!

Have you forgotten to link to the module perhaps?

No, I haven't forgotten. The module is still under review. After approval I'll post all links.

Hi @tcnet,

This Module seems to be exactly what I have been searching for.

But testing it doesn't work in the way that the E-Mail won't be sent and the Error "LoginFailNotifier Failed to send email." gets logged.

 

Do you have an idea what could be the problem? Does it have there any dependencies that aren't declared in the module info ore something like that? it's installed on Processwire v.3.0.165 

Thanks in advance!

That error message means that WireMail can not send the email. Maybe your mailer implementation doesn't work.

ah ok, thanks for the quick reply, I will look into that ?

In case anybody else comes upon a similar problem (calling wiremail in every other instance worked just fine)
removing this from the module file (line 62) actually did the trick:

$mailer->param('-f '.$data['notification_email']);

 

[tcnet]

Thanks for this info. But I by my self encountered the opposite on some systems. Not adding this line won't send the email.

I updated the module to 1.0.4 and added an option to specify the Return-Path in the email header. This option is blank by default.
