If <$mail_object =& Mail::factory('smtp', $params);> doesn't cause a fatal error your include/path is correct. send() will return a PEAR_Error object if an error occurs. Do this: $result = $mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $body); print_r($result); This will give you detailed information of what kind of error occurred. Regards, Torsten Roehr
