Upcoming Domain Renewal Notice sent to "Dear 6 6 (6),"

Not sure if this is a config issue with the NE1 mods or not, but I am receiving the e-mail and not my client. It is addressed to "6@secure.MYDOMAIN.net" and not to the client. The header follows:

 

Return-path: <nmd@secure.MYDOMAIN.net>

Envelope-to: client@clientemail.com

Delivery-date: Mon, 27 Apr 2009 01:00:42 -0600

Received: from nmd by secure.MYDOMAIN.net with local (Exim 4.69)

(envelope-from <nmd@secure.MYDOMAIN.net>)

id 1LyKpu-0007jg-Bh; Mon, 27 Apr 2009 01:00:42 -0600

To: 6@secure.MYDOMAIN.net

Subject: Upcoming Domain Renewal Notice

Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2009 01:01:06 -0600

From: MYHOSTCO <techsupport@mydomain.com>

Message-ID: <2f2db0fdc4a2c296072964127eded268@localhost.localdomain>

X-Priority: 3

MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-Type: multipart/mixed;

boundary="b1_2f2db0fdc4a2c296072964127eded268"

 

Any ideas where to look appreciated

I am also experiencing something very similar to this.

 

I have a client who has about 8 or so domains needing to be renewed in May. So this morning I am looking at his email message log and see that WHMCS has not sent him even a single upcoming domain renewal notice. I find that strange, so I look in the entire email activity log and see that the upcoming domain renewal reminders were sent -- but to DIFFERENT clients!! Argh!! When I open the domain renewal emails (the ones sent to the incorrect client) they start off with "Dear 3 3 (3)" or "Dear 6 6 (6)".

 

So the user who in fact owns the domains, has received no renewal reminders. Different clients were informed they needed to renew domains which they don't even own.

 

I think I should trust my billing system to at least send emails to the right people, so I consider this a very serious problem. Has anyone ever encountered this?

Curious to know if NE1 is your registrar. I'm wondering if I've got something wrong in the NE1 mods.

 

Nope, I am not with NE1. I don't even receive these domain renewal notices. It looks (according to the email activity log) that they were sent to different clients of my company.

 

It appears to be a problem in the function which is responsible for triggering this email.. the cron job I would imagine, but I don't really quite know what to check. The settings in the domain records and the user record all appear to be ok.

LeMarque - I forgot to mention, and this may apply to you as well. In my case this only appears to be happening with all domain records I added manually on behalf of clients, using the "ADD NEW ORDER" function from within WHMCS admin.

 

For all the other domains which were purchased normally from my site, I don't have this problem.

That may be the problem - I'll check it

 

Thanks

Same issue here. Dear 1 1, Dear 2 2 ... mails not being sent. A big issue here.

 

Yep still happening here too. It's very serious. Just sifting through my email activity log now and I see a few reminders and notices sent for domain renewals, but to completely different clients. As much as I hate to say this, it seems WHMCS isn't as reliable or bug-free as I thought it was. I've got a guy who has about 10 domains expiring in the next 2 weeks, and he probably doesn't know a thing about it.

I would say it is due to either a corruption in your WHMCS database (caused by MySQL) or a bug in the older version of WHMCS you guys are using. Although, I have run all previous version from 3.6 and never experienced this.

 

Perhaps the bug is triggered by a PHP update? What version are you guys using? 5.2.10? 5.3.0 (5.3.0 changes some stuff and may be a potential cause).
