Re: mail problem

It probably means your email server is not setup for open relaying (aka spam server). Mail servers should require a login in order to send email through them. The mail() function itself doesn't support names and passwords, but other php functions do. You might want to look into phpmailer to handle you email needs. Alternatively, you could setup your email server to allow open relaying from the localhost. But that's not really recommended even if you know exactly what you are doing with the mail server configuration. On Apr 29, 2005, at 3:27 AM, Ross wrote:
