Hi,

Just as I am exploring some of my alternatives for using the mail() in PH=
P=2C I came across a web page that one of the users on the list has provide=
d me: http://email.about.com/od/emailprogrammingtips/qt/PHP_Email_ SMTP_Auth=
entication.htm. Does anyone know what the Mail.php is referring to here?=20


require_once "Mail.php"=3B

$from =3D "Sandra Sender "=3B

$to =3D "Ramona Recipient "=3B

$subject =3D "Hi!"=3B

$body =3D "Hi=2C\n\nHow are you?"=3B

?>

If it is something from PEAR package=2C why isn't it necessary for it to sp=
ecify the path to that code?=20
Can it tell by itself?

Thanks for your help.

Alice

Because if PEAR is setup correctly, then its directory is in the include
path and this file will be found there.

Although you have other problems (see below) this is unlikely to work.
When sending email, you need to either authenticate yourself with the
server, or use an SMTP server in your local domain (which *may* accept
all mail without authentication). This will be a mail server run by your
ISP.

Given your email address domain (iu.edu) you should probably try
mail.iu.edu or smtp.iu.edu, or just ask your local administrator where
you should be sending email, and if you need to authenticate.

All that said, you define $host, but don't seem to use it anywhere. I've
never used the Pear Mail package, so can't tell you where that should go.

Did you restart the web server after changing that? Changes to the
server php.ini won't get picked up until a restart.
