Request: Send a blank email to php-windows+get-3439@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message
I have set up PHP4 on my windows machine. In php.ini : I set the SMTP string to be my SMTP server. I set the FROM string to be my email address. I did not set the sendmail_path string because I thought that was for unix-type machines. I am getting an "unknown error" when trying to send mail from the mail() function. Is that all I need to do to send mail from a PHP script? Do I need to have some kind of sendmail program also? If so what are some reccomendations? -thanks
