Hi,
An app I have had online for a while has started timeing out when I add a new user. I think it is failing on the send activation email action. The error dump is below. Am I right in thinking this is the mailer?
If so, what could I have changed to make this happen. Sorry to sound gormless, but I just can't understand why a working app would have stopped working?
Sent mail to xxxxxxx
