note 22886 added to ref.mail

hello... I want to use the mail() funtion, but somehow my code didn't work. I have my ISP is Directv with SMTP : smtp.directvinternet.com what do I need to do with the above SMTP in order to get my mail() function to work ? I am using Window 2K server. I already try to reconfigure my php.ini to: smtp: smtp.directvinternet.com What else do I need. I am a newbie.
