On the confirm email there's no detail about ping. How can I know if it's successful?

Hello,

it's recommended to submit sitemap to Google and Yahoo manually to track the status:
[ External links are visible to logged in users only ]
[ External links are visible to logged in users only ]

Yes but what about the others? I have a plugin for my forum that create a sitemap and in the email there something like this:

Google ping: Successful.
Yahoo ping: Successful.
Ask ping: Successful.
Moreover ping: Successful.
Live.com ping: Successful.

I think is a good thing, just to know if ping was made ok.

Yes I know but there's a way I can check if it was ping successfuly?

As long as your host doesn't block outgoing http connections, there is no reason for the ping to be not successful.
