[function Mail() Windows XP]SMTP Localhost
I'm trying to send an e-mail from a .php script and ie6 returns this error:
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:wampwwwPAMWDchap11emailsendmail.php on line 12
I checked php.ini (line 606):
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
OTOH I didn't find "smtp_port" in php.ini. Maybe I should add :80 as port in php.ini?

Mail() Problem With Localhost Smtp Server
Using PHP 5.0.4/MySQL 4.1.12/IIS 6. Have setup an Microsoft SMTP virtual server which works fine when I try to send an outgoing email via "localhost" using Outlook.

Mail Function And Smtp Problems
I'm in the process of building a web-site. The script i've written for registering an account send an e-mail to a user specified e-mail address containing instructions for account activation. My problem is that the e-mails wont send. I know this is something to do with smtp and mailservers. My knowledge in this particular area is minimal however, and i simply cannot find any competent documentation, explaining what i need to do, anywhere. My isp is AOL and i would like to use their smtp server if possible for sending the e-mails. I've changed the configuration of php.ini to connect to them. I do know that this requires authentication, but i have no idea how to do this. At the moment i'm getting the following error: Failed to connect to mailserver at "smpt.aol.com" port 587, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:Program FilesApache GroupApache2htdocs egister.php on line 82 However earlier when i was doing some trial and error, downloading programs and mail servers even though i had no idea what on earth i was doing (lol) i got the AUTH erorr message, which i assume meant that everything was working, apart from i needed authentication.

Testing Cool URIs On Localhost In Windows
I was reading a tutorial on Cool URI's. I'm changing over to Linux from Windows but I need to finish a web site first in Windows before that can be completed. When I check the web site in localhost Windows puts %20 in the blank spaces (I'm sure you all know this). With the rewrite rule in httpd.conf I've got "/" going to "index.php" and "/news/" going to "news.php". When I upload the site will it work OK if I just replace the localhost part of the url (in the menu file) with the proper web site address? eg http://www.thiswebsite/ http://www.thiswebsite/news/ instead of: http://localhost/This%20Web%20Site/ http://localhost/This%20Web%20Site/news/ As the web address hasn't been redirected to the new web host will I be able to use the IP address of the web site's new location (i.e. after it's redelegated) to check it while it's still being propogated?

PHP Mail - Localhost
Using PHP 4 on Win 95 with Apache. I would like to test the PHP mail function without going to the net using localhost. The system works fine in parsing and returning a HTML form. What do I need to change in order to have the mail locally sent to NS 4.7 or Outlook Express? The PHP INI file mail function is SMTP = localhost send_mail from = myaddress@alaska.net What mail address should be used in the PHP part of the mail form? mail($to, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders) as $to = "localhost"; ?? I receive the following message back: Warning: Failed to Connect in c:phpweb/form.php on line 18. Line 18 is the above mail($10..... which seems to indicate that it can not find the server or the path to the server. Please let me know what to alter so that localhost will send the PHP email to the appropriate email client w/o going on the net. i.e. it works just fine when using the net, but local testing would be better.

$SMTP = Fsockopen(mail.example.org, 25);
I tried the following posted by Nickoons and get a parse error: unexpected T-string in this line - $SMTP = fsockopen("mail.example.org", 25); I had the same issue. My old server worked fine.. and when I migrated the site to its own dedicated box, this function stopped working even though sendmail was working just fine. I also noticed that PHP's mail() function is very slow. I run a mailing list, and I created a web-based system to manage and deploy all of these emails. I ended up creating my own function to replace PHP's mail() function, which A) works on my new system, and B) is many times faster than PHP's mail() function. Here it is, in case you'd like to use it. It uses sockets to connect directly to the SMTP server of your choice: function SendMail($ToName, $ToEmail, $FromName, $FromEmail, $Subject, $Body, $Header) { $SMTP = fsockopen("smtp.sitename.com", 25); $InputBuffer = fgets($SMTP, 1024); fputs($SMTP, "HELO sitename.com"); $InputBuffer = fgets($SMTP, 1024); fputs($SMTP, "MAIL From: $FromEmail"); $InputBuffer = fgets($SMTP, 1024); fputs($SMTP, "RCPT To: $ToEmail"); $InputBuffer = fgets($SMTP, 1024); fputs($SMTP, "DATA"); $InputBuffer = fgets($SMTP, 1024); fputs($SMTP, "$Header"); fputs($SMTP, "From: $FromName <$FromEmail>"); fputs($SMTP, "To: $ToName <$ToEmail>"); fputs($SMTP, "Subject: $Subject"); fputs($SMTP, "$Body."); fputs($SMTP, "QUIT"); $InputBuffer = fgets($SMTP, 1024); fclose($SMTP); } I believe I've modified the script sufficiently that it doesn't include anything specific to my configuration.. I apologize if I haven't. You'll need to replace "smtp.sitename.com" and "sitename.com" with your server's information.

How To Send Mail With SMTP
What I want to do, is create an email form, where the user can select emails by groups from a database. So based on what group the user selects, I'm guessing I'll use SQL select query to select the appropriate user emails and print them out to the address line of the form. But I need to know the actual coding for SMTP. Is it much more complicated than the mail() function?

Mail() And SMTP Authentication
It would seem BT Internet have just turned on SMTP mail authentication although they have been talking about it for years as I now get the following error message using the mail function on my local machine which worked fine a couple of weeks ago. Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 530 authentication required - Your email could not be sent. To fix this you must make a simple change to your email (known as SMTP authentication). For advice visit www.btyahoo.com/smtp or call 0800 328 9968 Needless to say "Advice" relates to Outlook Express and little else, certainly not PHP. Anyone know the changes I need to make and where, parameters for the mail() function or in the php.ini file perhaps. Naturally I know the information relating to mail username and password.
