The user should be logged out in order to receive notification immediate, nevertheles, it might take up additional time, depending on the period you set for your cron to run. 

Have you tried to send mass mailing to your test users? Do you get it? 

Thank You

Mass Mail not workking

are you sure your cron is working?

Yes cron is working. Mass mailing also working

So this has been resolved?

Its on hold now. 

Thanks for the query.

I am having a similar problem.  Mass email is working within the community.  I am using my own SMTP account and it has been verified by Oxwall as ok.  Not receiving any emails outside of the community like new members signing up or notifications being sent to members external to the community.

Thanks!

New member verifications are not sent thru the mail table but most other mails are. 

The table name is ow_base_mail  what happens is that the mail is sent there first, then when the cron runs it removes it from that table and sends the mail.  So the mail is not in that table for very long and its gone.  Once that happens it is out of the Oxwall control and is up to your server and then your email host. 

If you have a dedicated server or VPS you can check your WHM or whatever host manager software you use to check the outgoing mail from the server to see if your email has been sent from the server.  If so then it is up to your email client after that.

First step verify that your cron is running

then check that table to see if there is anything in there

if that table is full of stuff then your cron is not running properly

then check the server

Is the cron call from server required for this mail functioning? Currently cron call on page load is working

Yes you have to set up the cron to run 1x every minute.

I use cpanel and i use this (the -O option is no longer used i believe)

php -q  /home/username/public_html/ow_cron/run.php

if you have Oxwall in a sub dir (or add on domain)

php -q  /home/username/public_html/domain folder name/ow_cron/run.php

if those dont work then use the examples on that page

not required but strongly recommended.

Thanks for the clarification Aliya :0)
