Hello there,
I had a question about mail() function and it's relation to what i'm allowed to do.
I am making a PHP site (which I am currently developing as localhost), and can't even send out a simple mail("arion279@yahoo.com", "the subject", "the message"
; and get it to work. The current page that the user fills out and submits is supposed to activate this mail function, but the site always freezes and stays frozen when I do this.
My outgoing SMTP server is:
outgoing.verizon.net
and my incoming POP3 is:
mail.csupomona.edu
The first, of course, is a large business which may or may not allow me to use them for this purpose, and second is a school, which also may have some restriction I am not aware of. I did set my PHP.ini file correctly to the correct SMTP, and set my default email to the one above. Do you have any idea why the mail will not send out? Everyone's always saying how easy this function is, but it seems that external elements are keeping me from enjoying the easiness!
Thanks for your time,
Arion279
