PHPRunner General questions

Hello everyone,
I am having trouble setting up the email using SMTP but something is not working or I might be doing something wrong and I don't know what it is hopefully someone can help me with this.
If I use the Built-In mailer I can specify the header on the email, lets say the Email is coming from Check List<info@mydomain.com> and this works I do get the emails and it says from Check List, but when I change to custom settings and use SMTP all the emails I get are from Root User root@localhost am I doing something wrong? is there a way to fix this?
Thanks for your help

Make sure you specified FROM email address in PHPRunner settings under Security->User Login Settings.

I did I have info@mydomain.com in the "From" email address

I guess you need to contact the person who manages your web server/mail server to find why FROM header specified in PHP code gets overwritten with root@localhost.

I have a VPS, I manage the server, any ideas what I would have to look into? thanks for your help

Unfortunately I cannot provide any real insight here. Just in case post all your SMTP settings from PHPRunner here (except the password). Probably I can spot something.

So you saying you have tried both SSL and Non-SSL settings and they produced the same results, correct?
The only thing I can see suspicious is that SSL SMTP server is different from your domain name. It might be a different server and it might be configured differently. Not sure what else I can say here.
