While sending newsletter, using mailing list, php script is able to connect to database, retrieve emails, however is unable to send newsletter or email. I am using localhost. I have SMTP installed on local machine. Any guidance ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 554 5.7.1 (IPT:OA) Use port 587 to send mail from your AOL screen name. http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554iptoa.html in C:\HOME\doctorbush\sendmymail.php on line 44
AOL may not allow you to operate your own SMTP server. You may have to get permission or use special ports like the error message says. Why not set the SMTP value in php.ini to the AOL SMTP server instead of trying to run your own? ---John Holmes...
