How do I set up the mail() function in php.ini. How do I define the username and password? My smtp service requires me to log on. I'm using Apache 2.0.47 on WinXP Pro.
There is no way to set SMTP authentication using the mail() function.

Since you are one WinXP Pro -- you can download something like postcast http://www.postcast.com (a free SMTP server), and use that instead. However, the original statement is correct ... mail() doesn't support SMTP authentication. -- Burhan Khalid phplist[at]meidomus[dot]com http://www.meidomus.com
