RE: [PHP-WIN] mail function

I think that yahoo will not relay your mail. I tried to connect, via telnet, to the smtp port of smtp.mail.yahoo.com It doesn't work. Try to use the smtp of your ISP, or a free smtp server. ______________________________ / Beowulf_pa@ThePentagon.com \ |^^^^^^| / ICQ: 1776271 \ | | |---------------------------------| | | | L'amour, c'est un sport. | | (o)(o) o | Surtout s'il y en a un des deux | @ _) o | qui veut pas. | | ,___| o \ - Jean Yanne - / | / ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /____\ -----Message d'origine----- De : Sreekumar [mailto:sreekumarp@yahoo.com] Envoyé : lundi 28 août 2000 06:28 À : php-windows@lists.php.net Objet : [PHP-WIN] mail function Hi, I am using PHP4 under 1.
