Additionally the object instance ($mail) does not contain the error -- it is a Mail object; the RETURN VALUE contains the error, if any. Try: $sent = $mail->send($recips, $headers, $message); if (PEAR::isError($sent)) { $error = $sent->toString(); $error2 = $sent->getMessage(); You should get much better results at this point. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney | WEBSITES: Webmaster and IT Specialist | http://www.garden.org National Gardening Association | http://www.kidsgardening.com 802-863-5251 x156 | http://nationalgardenmonth.org mailto:matthew@garden.org | http://vermontbotanical.org
