I have relaying turned on, also SMTP Authentication. When I'm testing I
turn the Authentication off. I have no way in the ArgoSoft mail server of
specifying accepted ip's for relaying.
Email still does not work.
I have tried what you said about the logging. I can comment out the
error_log=syslog line, uncomment the line to write it to a file, restart
IIS, says logging is turned off, no file is created.
It's like IIS is caching this php.ini file, changes I make don't show up
when I do phpinfo().
