Failed To Connect To Mailserver
I am running IIS5 on my XP Pro home computer and am unable to send email through my ISP's mail server. In the PHP.INI are two lines:

smtp = smtp.telus.net
smtp_port = 25

I have opened port 25 on my own computer (do I need to though?) and I am able to telnet to the ISP's SMTP server. When I try to send an email from my PHP page I get the well-known error message:

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 [filename] on line 40.

The strange thing is, the mail() function seems to be trying to connect to "localhost" and not "smtp.telus.net". There is only one PHP.INI file (in C:WINDOWS) and I have run phpinfo() to confirm that this indeed is the INI file being loaded. However phpinfo() states that the SMTP server is "localhost" and not "smtp.telus.net". I added an ini_set("smtp", "smtp.telus.net") right before the mail()function and got the same error: unable to connect to "localhost". I am not running IIS's SMTP service.

Failed To Connect To Mailserver - Use The Site From An External Computer
This issue is really annoying me, I dont know why its happening. I did a PHP site for a client and it uses the php mail() function. The site is now live and works fine. It seems that whenever a user who is internal to the site as in, if they use the site from within the network that the site is served. The mail function fails with:

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "theServer" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in (...the php.ini file).

(I have changed the name of the server and the file path to the php.ini here for security reasons.)But When I use the site from an external computer, like anyone else
would, it works fine. Im yet to confirm weather every email request from an external site works ok. But I think so. What could be the problem? Would it matter that the request to the web server is internal or not?

Connect To Pop3 Mail Server
I have a piece of code that connects to a mail server running on the same machine. It all works fine but it just takes an age to connect to the mail server, like 30 seconds or so.
Looking at the log for the mail server, I noticed the following lines at the beginning of each request:

[Date / Time] CAPA
[Date / Time] -ERR Unknown Command
[Date / Time] AUTH
[Date / Time] -ERR Unknown Command

Could this be the reason that it takes so long to connect to the mail server? And if so is it possible to suppress certain commands sent to the server if they are not required?
The PHP code I use to connect is simply:

$mbox = imap_open ("{mailserver:110/pop3}INBOX", "username", "password");

And then imap_close($mbox); to clean up.

Connect To The Server With A Password And Username And Then Allow Mail() Commands Normally.
It is with smtp authorization. I have been told that it is not possible. But I saw a script that made it possible. But I have users that have directories on my site and would like them to be able to use the mail() function without a complicated script.

My plan was, to find some way to connect to the server with a password and username and then allow mail() commands normally.

This file would be in the include directory so all the users would need to do is have a require('mail.php'); before their mail script and it would work. Does anyone know how to do this, Or can you refer me to a free mailer that doesnt use authorization?

Php.ini Mail Config On Linux
I have a problem sending emails, they doesnŽt got sent at all. here is my php.ini:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
;SMTP = 10.0.0.150

; For Win32 only.
;sendmail_from = me@localhost.com
; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix -t -i

The mail server that the linux box is running is Postfix. IŽve tried with the central server of the office, that has an SMTP server (10.0.0.150), but without no luck.
the strange thing is that mail works if the webserver is a Win2k machine, relaying the email to the ip listed above.

am I restricted to sendmail or postfix on linux or may I use an external SMTP server?
what could be wrong? IŽll post the mail function, but as IŽve said it works as expected when using a win2k server: PHP Code:

Per-server PHP Config Override
I'm using Apache webserver 1.3.27 and PHP 4.3.0. On my development machine,
I have created several virtual hosts. AFAIK PHP configuration is stored in
php.ini. I want some of the virtual hosts override some of PHP
configuration, while the rest retain the configuration in the php.ini. How
can I achieve this? I'm thinking a similar approach like Apache's
httpd.conf and .htaccess, but how to do it with PHP.

Furthermore, one of my project involves multiple subdomains, each
implemented by way of virtual hosts. Say a domain dev.foo.net have several
subdomains (dev.sd1.foo.net, dev.sd2.foo.net, etc), and I have other
domains configured in my machine, like dev.bar.org and wdv.blah.com. Also
say that default php.ini is the default config for all domains in my
machine. How can I make a configuration override applicable only from
dev.foo.net and it's subdomains, but not applicable to other domains
(dev.bat.org and wdv.blah.com uses the default php.ini entirely).

BTW, the machine is running on WinXP sp1a.

Missing Charset Or Bung Server Settings?
I was wondering if some one could take a look at the two
example server outputs below, and help me understand what is wrong.
I'm getting garbled characters.

The php script I'm developing delivers XML to a client side
application I'm also putting together in VB.NET .. Example 1 is my
development PC.. It has a recent build of PDP & Apache. This output is
good.

Example 2 is the production server and is adding all sorts of strange
characters, that are causing the XML to be invalid.

I'm thinking it has somthing to do with the lack of charset in Ex2..
perhaps. If that is the case can I specify it in the .htaccess file
because I dont have direct control over the production server. Has any
one seen this before?

Server And Document Root Settings In Apache
I'm not sure if I'm even asking the right question, but my website (not hosted by me) used codes like include $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] . "/include/header.php";.  Per a forum member's suggestion, I ran an echo on that command, and it gives a folder tree three folders deep...  So, online, it points to the correct page, but I'm trying to set up Apache (I used WAMP) to get a beta test site on my own computer.  So, the above command doesn't work. 

I ran searches for "document_root" and "php5/pear" (a directory in the error messages I get) to see if I could find a path setting in either Apache or PHP config files with no success. Does anyone know how to set up either my Apache or PHP config so I can define what $_SERVER and DOCUMENT_ROOT are pointing to when they're on my localhost without making them not work when I upload them to my web host?
