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).

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?

Use The Mail() Function: Warning: Mail() [function.mail]:

So I'm asking two things.
1) How can I make this work with out using Verizon's SMTP server? The server I am using for this website is a Windows XP machine with Apache as the webserver.
2) Once I have an alternative smtp server option, what is it I need to do to set it up properly?

I need an alternative smtp server because this machine is just a development machine at my house, while the file site is in a colo and isn't connect to verizion or anyone else with a smtp server.

Mail() Function - Using The Mail() Function To Send Emails To Members Of A Website
I am using the mail() function to send emails to members of a website. For some reason when I include words such as "free" or "winner" the mail does not send to any of the addresses - it just seems to disappear in space. I figured this out by trial and error - once I removed those words, it worked. I am running cPanel on the server and have no problem sending emails as long as they don't use those words. It seems to be blocking certain words - ones that I assume spammers would use.

Emails Blocked By Certain Mail Hosts? (mail() Function)
I'm using mail($address,$subjectheading,$message,"From:
me@mysite.com") to send emails from my site. For the most part, it
works okay (for example, I receive the mail in my Yahoo box). But when
I check my university email, the message is not delivered. I thought
maybe it was because I had included my web address in the subject
heading and that it was being filtered out, but I removed that from
the subject and it still fails to get through. I'm making a wedding
site for some friends now and they want to be able to email everyone
on their guest list at once, but I'm afraid the same will happen to
some of these addresses as well. Any comments/suggestions on what may
be blocking the mail and how I can get around it? I'm not trying to
send out any kind of mass ad mailings or anything. Just to people on a

PHP Mail() Function Failing To Send Mail
Our setup: PHP 4.3.11, FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE, Sendmail 8.1, 1 host
environment, 2 jails.

Our problem: While we can send email from the command line just fine
in one of the jails, we cannot use the php mail() command to send email
using sendmail at all. The function, when executed, does absolutely
nothing. No error, no reports to the maillog, nothing.

I've read somewhere that it's "not possible" to send mail using the php
mail() function within a freebsd jail, but i'm nearly certain we have
it working this way on another server, but can't seem to figure out the
issue.

Send Out The Most Basic E-mail Using PHP And The Mail() Function.
im trying to send out the most basic e-mail using PHP and the mail() function.
the problem i have is that it will always return true but the message is never received and im not sure if its even sent. heres my code....

      $email = "jonathangilmartin@yahoo.co.uk";
      $subject = "Subject!";
      $body = "whatever you want to email";
      $from = "From: Jon <john@beach.es>";
      $p5 = '-f john@beach.es';
if(mail($to,$subj,$mesg,$from,$p5)){
echo " sent ok ";
}
else {
echo " failed ";
}

I think the problem I have could be due to the server I am hosting the site on, but dont quote me on this as im not sure. The site is hosted on my university server, ive now graduated so I cannot ask the support team if any ports are blocked. Does anyone know a way of testing a servers ports, if this is even necessary of course !

can anyone explain the typical server requirements to send e-mail using PHP, i assume port 25 must be open and the server must accept SMTP. Forgive me for asking a dumb question but I take it that i cannot test the mail() function from my testing apache server installed on my local PC ?

Also you will have noticed that i have a yahoo e-mail address, would i have to make any changes to my account to get this working ?? its only a standard free e-mail account.

Sending Mail To Hotmail Using The Mail() Function
I have been doing some research into how to send mail to a Hotmail address using the mail() function provided in PHP, in previous posts I may have been wrong in mentioning that you need to add your mail server to the hotmail PostMaster website using Smart Network Data Services (SNDS), after doing some research I have found that in order to send e-mail to a Hotmail address you need to add/ask your host to add an SPF record to your domain.

What is SPF?

Well, SPF is a protocol used to eliminate forged e-mails, much like SSL certificates help eliminate phising websites. Microsoft use the SPF record against the SenderID Framework that they have in place.

How do I go about obtaining an SPF Record?

Easy! use the Microsoft wizard found at:

http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/safety/content/technologies/senderid/wizard/

to generate a unique SPF record for your domain, then add it to your DNS server, or ask your web host to do this.

I manage my own DNS server, how do I add an SPF record to a domain?

To begin, open the DNS MMC from the Administrative Tools menu of your Windows Server 2003 system. Next, find the domain that will host the SPF DNS lookup record. 

Highlight the folder for the domain, and select Other New Records from the Action menu. You can also access this menu by right-clicking the domain folder.

The resource Record Type dialog box will be displayed. From the Select a Resource Record Type area of the screen, scroll down the list and select Text (TXT) from the list.

Click Create Record. This will bring up the New Resource Record dialog box to appear. This is where you paste the SPF record generated by the above website

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope this helps, I have tried it myself and e-mails went straight to my inbox (not junk mail). Would also appreciate feedback if this works for other providers such as Yahoo! etc as I have not tried it with them

Give me your feedback on how it works for you, also if it works possibly make this thread sticky as I'm sure it will resolve many problems for people out there who are denying access to people who have public email addresses.

domain. This makes my think that the From: address is somehow not getting sent to my server properly or that I'm pointing at the wrong server.

The confounding thing is that it was working for a while and I don't think I changed anything and it just stopped.

I'm running these PHP pages for a client off of one of those cheap hosting services, I think it's called 1dollarhost.com or something, although I can't remember at the moment.

Has anyone else had trouble with this or found a solution?

Mail Sending Within A While Failed
I have a table with some email addresses of a mailing list subscribers.
I'm triying to send a mail to them by querying the table and sending
the mail from a 'while' loop, but I only get sent the mail to the first
address, and no more, and the 'while' is correct and I can see the
debug traces from within for each address.

I don't know if there is any reason for this, if the smtp server is
busy sending the first mail when receiving the second and next...
