do i need to fill ‘‘Send login details from this email address’‘ field under preferences and problem solved?

Yes, in theory. And if that doesn’t work you can add:

from="noreply@aknalaud24.ee"

in the <txp:com_connect> tag.

Oddness with reply_to (TXP 4.9 and com_connect 4.9-beta, PHP 8.4.latest and 8.5.0)

The <txp:com_connect /> contains: to="xxx[at]my_domain.tld" from="xxx[at]my_domain.tld".
The TXP preferences > Mail:

“SMTP envelope sender address” -> xxx[at]my_domain.tld
“Use enhanced mail features?“ -> Yes

The mail I receive has my xxx[at]my_domain.tld as the from address – that is expected, and the contacting person’s address in the reply_to field, also as expected.

But, this is a weirdness I think, the reply_to field also includes my from address.

Raw source of email is basically:

From: xxx@my_domain.tld
Reply-To:  xxx@my_domain.tld, someone.somewhere@mail.another-domain.tld

That is a little unexpected.

I am not sure when this started. Many contact emails we receive don’t warrant an answer. Those that do, most of the time we create a new mail and copy the necessary detail out of the received mail.

Hmmm, okay. While it’s not technically wrong I admit that’s probably not expected.

I’ll take a look and see if I can figure out why it’s working that way and try to make it only use one address.

Thanks for the report.

I might be wrong but think that it had to do with our discussions regarding postmaster, and how online email providers such as gmail no longer accepted phpmail. The solution was to create a 2 “Reply-To” emails. my@email.tld, subscriber@their_site.tld.

I received a letter from technical support, they said that they checked their logs and now indeed the letters are arriving beautifully with the correct data. Adding from=“noreply@domainname.ee” to com_coņnect solved the problem

There’s ext_captcha which integrates with com_connect. I haven’t tested it for a while and it’s still considered beta code (no official release until 4.9.0 ships), but if you download the Code => Zip file from github and drag/open EITHER the embedded ext_captcha.php or ext_captcha.zip into your Plugins panel’s Browse… area, it should install fine.

looks like i got it installed, but with little error:

@Warning “rename(…)”

Weird. Does your server have write access to the textpattern/plugins directory? Check the permissions please.

EDIT: Hmmm, or it could be this weirdness. Could you please post your (private hidden) Low Diagnostics here?
