Re: Mail Functions help

I did some research and found out that my ISP's SMTP server is smtp.comcast.net. If I configure my mail functions to connect to this should my script be able to send e-mails? Research and Experimentation (yes, I did some!): I tried connecting to it using this telnet command: telnet smtp.comcast.net But I got this: Connecting to smtp.comcast.net..could not connect to smtp.comcast.net on port 23. A connecting attempt failed because the connection party did not properly respond after a period of time.. Then I tried this: telnet smtp.comcast.net 25 A new window popped up and said this: 220 Comcast.net - Mailennium ESMTP/Multibox rwcrmhc11 #140 Did it work? So if I put smtp.comcast.net in php.ini should my e-mail script work? -Andrew
