Hello everybody :). I having a little problem with PHPs build in function mail(). The mailserver isnt located on the webserver, its on another machine. I have tryed ini_set("SMTP", "ipaddress"); with no result. The system I'm on runs on an Linux box. Can this be done or must I write an own mail function, with sockets? _________________________________________________________________ Lättare att hitta drömresan med MSN Resor http://www.msn.se/resor/
The smtp settings are only for PHP on Windows. You don't have to write your own, though, it's been done for you. :-) PEAR's Mail package has an smtp backend which will do all of it for you. http://pear.php.net/package/Mail -- paperCrane <Justin Patrin>
