Hello Thorpe, sorry for not using the tags, didn't pay attention i'm under sooo much pressure and deadline is tomorrow! thanks for pointing that php cannot send email via mail servers that require authentication, you saved me a lot of time searching for a way to do it. thanks again

the content of mail.php is below... <?php include 'includes/common.inc.php'; // If user is not logged in redirect to login page if (!$user->is_logged_in()) { $_SESSION['REDIRECT_AFTER_LOGIN'] = 'mail.php'; header('location: user_login.php'); exit; } $x = (isset($_GET['x']))? $_GET['x'] : ''; $u = (isset($_GET['u']))?

Hello, i am trying to send email upon user registration on my site. i am getting the error: SMTP server response: 503 This mail server requires authentication when attempting to send to a non-local e-mail address. here is my php code: … function sendmail() { if (is_array($this->to)) { for ($i = 0; $i < count($this->to); $i++) { mail($this->to[$i], $this->subject, $this->message, $this->headers); } } else { mail($this->to, $this->subject, $this->message, $this->headers); } } function email_basic($subject, $to, $message, $from = '') { $this->to = $to; $this->subject = $subject; $this->from = $from; $this->message = $message; $this->build_header(); $this->sendmail(); } function email_sender($to, $file, $subject) { $this->to = $to; $this->subject = $subject; $this->build_header(); $this->buildmessage($file); $this->sendmail(); } } from searching around i found that i should insert something like: $smtpinfo["host"] = "smtp.mycorp.com"; $smtpinfo["port"] = "25"; $smtpinfo["auth"] = true; $smtpinfo["username"] = "smtpusername"; $smtpinfo["password"] = "smtpPassword"; but i don't know how, where to code this... any help would be appreciated
