Hi Nikos,

Have you lost your sysadmin password? If so you can recover it following the instructions on this thread:

http://lamscommunity.org/dotlrn/clubs/educationalcommunity/gettingstarted/forums/message-view?message_id=398051

Once you have recovered the admin password, then you should set up the SMTP settings within the sysadmin menu.

Let me know if you need any help.

Cheers,

ernie

Thank you Ernie.
Actually, I didn't forget my password. If a user tries to retrieve his password he gets the message I have written.
In the email settings I have configured LAMS to use the embeded SMTP server, but unfortunately it seems that in this case it doesn't work.
