I get this any time I try to send an email to someone that IS NOT in the domain of the company: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 503 This mail server requires authentication when attempting to send to a non-local e-mail address. Please check your mail client settings or contact your administrator to verify that the domain or address is defined for this server. in corpevent.php on line 21 I have it setup like this (I removed the email address domain...but its correct in the code): // INI Settings // ini_set(sendmail_from,"info@domain.com"); ini_set(SMTP,"mail.domain.com"); ini_set(smtp_port,"25"); $headersĀ = "MIME-Version: 1.0"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"; $headers .= "From: info@domain.com"; $to = $_POST['txtEmail']; mail($to,"Your Email",$theEmail,$headers); Why am I not allowed to send an email to anyone that doesn't have a "domain.com" at the end of the email?

Setting Up SMTP Server And Mail()
I've never seen a clear and useful post about setting up an SMTP server and getting the mail function to work properly. Some info about my system: Windows XP Home (SP2) Apache 2.0.XX PHP 5 MySQL 4.1 ActivePerl 5.8.7 (If anyone knows how to set this up with apache, please send me a pm, thanks) I'd really like if someone could post a few links or someinfo on how to set up php's mail stuff From what responses I've gotten in the past, I think I need an SMTP server installed on my computer, when I googled, the only results that I seemed to get were servers I would have to pay for. I'd also like to know about configuring PHP's mail functions (php.ini options) so that it will work corectly.....

Test Mail() On Development Machine W/o Smtp Server
My development machine (WinXP, Apache 2.2.4) does not have an smtp server, and I don't really want to install one if I can help it. Does anyone know of a simple method of testing php scripts that employ mail() by simulating an smtp server and directing output to a text file or to an installed text editor. Right now I can modify the script to use something instead of mail(), then change it when I put into production, but I would really like to test the script in its production form w/o having to actually send email.

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.

I tried fsockopen and even it wont get thru Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to ******:25 in c:******** on line 2 ERROR: 10053 I have enabled anonymous access to exchange server and the RELAY is allso enabled in the smtp-settings.

$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?
