Can not email using PHP 1

[likelylad]

I have an Apache Server with php on a Win 2000 Professional PC.
The settings with the php.ini file is as follows
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = 10.76.10.11
smtp_port = 25

The 10.76.10.11 is a different server that has Exchange 5.5 running on it.

I can Telnet into this server using the above specified settings. However I did not test if any command here (mainly because I do not know how to).

When I run the following code:

<?php
$email = &quot;mmouse@disney.com&quot;;
$subject = &quot;Welcome To BAA&quot;;
$message = &quot;Dear Blaa,Thank you for blaa blaa ..more blaas.&quot;;
mail($email,$subject,$message);
?>


I get the following error:
Warning: Server Error in C:\

http://www\email\email.php

on line 5

Is the problem with the code or are the setting on one of the servers incorrect.
If it is with the servers then what things can I check.

Thanking you in advance for any help received

I gave instructions as to how to send and email using telnet in this thread: thread434-407735

Try that first, and see what errors Exchange is serving up. Exchange could, for example, be requiring SMTP login before it will accept mail. ______________________________________________________________________

Thanks for getting back to me.
The following happened.
I typed in mail from:<me@mydomain.com> [enter]
and I received the following error
500 5.3.3 Unrecognized Command

I then typed in mail from: <me@mydomain.com> [enter]
and I received the following error
503 5.5.2 Send hello first

Where it says me@mydomain.com, I replaced it with a valid address.

Any ideas?????

Hi sleipnir214

Done a bit of research on the Hello bit.
And got the thing working.
Thanks for setting me off in the right direction.
