Sending email using Apache

[greenmetal]

Hello All,

I've an Apache 1.3 running on win NT. I've an html pages from which I'm trying to send an email but I find that I never receive email. Is there anything I need to configure in Apache or do I need some mail server program running which will send an email

thanx in advance.

Hi greenmetal,
what SMTP server are you sending to? Have you a code example? Does the SMTP server you are sending to allow non-authorised usage?

regards

Hi Joel,

I just noticed that in order to able to send mail, one needs to specify the SMTP server name or IP address in the php.ini file. Then only the mail() function is able to send the mail.

Is there any option in Apache where I can specify SMTP server so that I don't have to set in PHP.ini file ???
