I’m seeing the same issue as Johan—all emails sent are popping up in the sending account’s inbox as well. Any chance you’ve figured this out Ashley? Thanks

Hi, and thanks for a nice extension!

I wonder if its normal to get all sent messages in the gmail inbox to, not only in sent messages..

Is there any settings that changes this?

Thanks in advance,

Johan

Would this be a good fix or workaround for my magento installation not sending emails to my gmail apps account or do I have something else going wrong?

Hi,

i have problem (maybe there are few of them)

When I was using default magento sending system, client who buys a product receive an email, but I am (as owner) not receiving anything.

Installed your extension (in manual way), filled fileds with google apps data but now there are no emails for client and not for owner (tried with contact form, with purchase orders).

Tried to use smtp settings and filled google apps data, same problem continues

Tried with another simple smtp data (not google apps) – same problem continues again.

BUT when self-test are done (with google apps, smtp google apps and simple smtp data) everything looks good and I am getting test emails (test email and contact form example with your email).

What I am doing wrong?

Using magento 1.6.0.0, website is not in production state and all requests for that domain are redirected.
My server (virtual dedicated) isn’t configured to send emails itself.

Maybe there is a problems?

P.S I have already used your extension in previous project and you helped me to solve another problem few months ago.

I need your help now too, I am ready to make a donation for you work.

Hi, Justin

It points to a possible extension clash – some other extension is controlling the email send. Check the contact form test email headers, if it is sent via Google then it is probably a false alarm.

Not quite sure what to make of this error…

ASchroder.com SMTP Pro Self-test results
Testing outbound connectivity to Server:
Using Google Apps/Gmail configuration options
Connection to Host SMTP server successful.
Sending test email to your contact form address support@happycow.com.au:
Test email was sent successfully.
Contact Form test email did not use SMTPPro to send.

Never mind. I didn’t realize I had to click ‘Save Config’ before running the Self Test.

When I try ‘Run Self Test’, I get the following:

Testing outbound connectivity to Google:

Connection to Google SMTP server successful.

Sending test email to your contact form address the….@gmail.com:

Unable to send test email. Exception message was: 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6 …

I’m pretty sure I’ve entered my account information correctly and I’ve tried several gmail / google apps accounts I have access to.

Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

@esteban
I had same SQL error as you , found this thred via Google. I sorted it by changing permissions i.e. chmod 777 recursive, then log out / log in & let Ashley’s app do it’s stuff which is create the missing table.
Tidy up the permissions afterwards as always.
Hope this helps,
Matt
