email is bouncing

I upload users (students) in batches of about 200. These students do not have email addresses so I enter my own email in the required field. My hosting service (Namecheap) does not allow relay and is bouncing all of the auto-generated confirmation messages and is now threatening to disable my account due to the high volume of mail.
1. Can the email requirement be disabled, and how ?
2. Can the auto-generated confirmation be disabled ?
Thanks

Hi,
if you want you can modify the admin/pageEditMembership.php file .
Search for
if($isApproved){
notifyMemberApproval($memberID);
}
and comment the notifyMemberApproval($memberID);
be aware that this file is being overwritten if you recreate your project.
As an alternative you could modify the notifyMemberApproval function in the admin/incFunctions.php
Code: Select all
function notifyMemberApproval($memberID){
$adminConfig = config('adminConfig');
$memberID = strtolower($memberID);
$email = sqlValue("select email from membership_users where lcase(memberID)='{$memberID}'");
return sendmail(array(
'to' => $email,
'name' => $memberID,
'subject' => $adminConfig['approvalSubject'],
'message' => nl2br($adminConfig['approvalMessage'])
));
}
and check for example if a defined email address is definied for the user (e.g.
[email protected]).
Code: Select all
function notifyMemberApproval($memberID){
$adminConfig = config('adminConfig');
$memberID = strtolower($memberID);
$email = sqlValue("select email from membership_users where lcase(memberID)='{$memberID}'");
if ($email =="[email protected]") return;
return sendmail(array(
'to' => $email,
'name' => $memberID,
'subject' => $adminConfig['approvalSubject'],
'message' => nl2br($adminConfig['approvalMessage'])
));
}
