Hi,

I'm sortof a "n00b" network admin here at our small office, and i'm trying to get sendmail working in php.

i editted my php.ini file (on server) to reflect the proper smtp server, and created a basic script that only had this:

<?php

mail(&quot;scottcybak@hotmail.com&quot;, &quot;sampletitle&quot;, &quot;Some text&quot;, &quot;From: chuckwoolery@iamkewl.com&quot;);


?>

but, it keeps telling me &quot;Warning: Failed to Connect in pathofmahstuff\sendmail.php on line 3&quot;

.. .. i read something somewhere about using ms's virtual smtp server .. but i can't figure out where the management snap-in thingy ma-bober is..

anyone have any suggestions for me?

TIA Scott Cybak

You should be able to access the MMC for the SMTP through the Administrative Tools. This can be found in 2 places - Control Panel and your Programs menu. Of course, you'll need to be a member of the Administrators group.

I hope that helps.
