Fw: [PHP] cant mail

sorry I dont know how to run that telnet command, it doesnt work in my dos window. I downloaded absolute telnet but I dont know how to send a message withit. as far as sendmail_from, I already have that set to an email, so that isnt theproblem. Could it be that in out look express it says in my mail setup "My server requires authentification"? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert Degen" <robert.degen@rwth-aachen.de> To: "PHP Genral" <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2007 12:54 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] cant mail

Connection/Firewall ?! ---------------------- Run telnet <SMTPSERVER> 25, type EHLO <ENTER> and see if he talks to you No anonymous relaying ?! ------------------------ Set the From header, caus maybe your smtp doesn't relay for everyone :-) mail ($addressee, $sub, $body, 'From: YouMail@YourISQP.tld'); or write it into your php.ini at... sendmail_from NULL PHP_INI_ALL (found at http://de3.php.net/mail, Runtime Configuration) So far!
