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.

However when trying to use mail(), i get an error "Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini"

I had previously tried to use my ISPs smtp server but also got the same "failed to connect" error which is why i tried going locally. Code:

[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 - Warning: Mail() [function.mail]: SMTP Server Response: 550 Invalid Recipient:
Whenever the recipient's email address includes a hyphen ( - ), I get the following error message...

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 550 Invalid recipient:

I should stress that this only seems to occur when the hyphen is in the URL portion of the address, i.e example@perfect-example.com

The current code works along the lines of...

mail ($_POST['email'], 'Email subject is here', $body, $headers);

SMTP Server Response: 503 This Mail Server Requires Authentication
I get this any time I try to send an email to someone that IS NOT in the domain of the company:

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");

$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:

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

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.

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.

else {

Zend studio didn't like 'REMOTE_ADDR' - Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR, which then meant it couldn't include any files and fell over. I am also having problems using cookies and sessions.
