    Exclamation SendMail ?! Need help!

    Hello,
    I'm using Apache 1.3.20 on Win 2000 with PHP 4.0.5.
    I need to know how to get the mail()-function in php to work.

    I think I have to install "SendMail" but where do I get it, how do I install it and whatever?


    Thanks in advance,
    Dennis.
    Code that I author is neither elegant nor efficient. It is, however, functional. Once I get something that works, I'm generally satisfied with myself - I mean, if it works, that's good enough, right?

    Lightbulb Well done!

    Thanks scoutt,
    I managed to call a linux-server to send the mails thru it.
    But is there a way to configure it on the local system (nt)?

    I've never done this for nt so can you help me?

    It's not neccessary but it would be fine - incase the linux-server is down or has too much traffic.

    Thanks a lot,
    Dennis.

    well

    your welcome. I think all you need to do is set it up to whatever your mail settings are, like when you send mail through outlook or whatever you use. same settings as above. the smtp_path is primarily for unix systems so you don't need anything there.
