RE: [PHP-WIN] mail() function EXTREMELY slow

You should be able to do it, I know I do: [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP= smtp.isp.com ; for Win32 only ; For Win32 only. sendmail_from= user@isp.com ; for Win32 only However, I'm aware that this is an extremely pernickity thing, and that lots of people have problems getting it to work -----Original Message----- From: Matt Hillebrand [mailto:matt@medmarket.com] Sent: 26 February 2002 23:27 To: r.fleming@clara.co.uk; php-windows Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] mail() function EXTREMELY slow Yeah, I know about the max time variable, but it would be unacceptable to take over a minute or two to send a handful of emails! I read an article that said you could use your ISP's SMTP server for the mail() function, but that didn't seem to work.

The speed is pretty much dependent on your SMTP server though.

Trying to send a batch of emails with PHP's mail() function takes so long, that the script expires and I get an error message. I tried searching the archives of this list, but that search page seems to be broken. Thanks!
