Don't bump your post within 24 hours.

Probably the easiest thing to do is either:

a) Switch from mail() to SMTP in Server Settings

or

b) Disable mail such as notifications, member activation and send to friend so that SMF never tries to send e-mail

It would be far better just to use a host that doesn't disable e-mail functionality

/edit: spelling

Sorry. In 2.0 this has moved to Admin area > Mail > Settings

Alternatively you can remove the mail sending code. This is untested but should do the trick. Open Sources / Subs-Post.php

Find:

Code Select Expand

foreach ($to_array as $to)
{
if (!mail(strtr($to, array("\r" => '', "\n" => '')), $subject, $message, $headers))
{
log_error(sprintf($txt['mail_send_unable'], $to));
$mail_result = false;
}

// Wait, wait, I'm still sending here!
@set_time_limit(300);
if (function_exists('apache_reset_timeout'))
apache_reset_timeout();
}

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

foreach ($to_array as $to)
{
//Do nothing
}
