RE: [PHP-DB] mail function

check that you have either specified [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP = mail.myserver.com ; For Win32 only. sendmail_from = vaio1@myserver.com or the sendmail path here; ; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: 'sendmail -t -i'). ;sendmail_path = /usr/bin/sendmail otherwise mail cannot send mail at all. -----Original Message----- From: Travis Cannell [mailto:cannelltravis@hotmail.com] Sent: 14 August 2001 03:27 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] mail function hi all, I cant seem to get my mail function to work. OK so i am a noob, that might have something to do with it. I am using a script I found called the HTML Mime Mail Class, which does everything i need except actually send the mail. I am guessing that there is some config problems, but i am not sure. Even when i try and use the mail() function i get a server error. So i guess that my problem is that my return address is messed up. Does it have to be my own domain, or the domain that the server is running on? Can i set the return address as a hotmail account, or do i need my own server mail program? And is there anything that i need to config in the php.ini file?
