PFMaBiSmAd Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 The SMTP setting must list either the hostname or IP address of your mail server and if your mail server is not using port 25, then you must set the smtp_port setting to match the actual port. sendmail_from is a default From: header if you don't provide a header parameter to the mail() function call. Stop and start your IIS service to get any changes made to php to take effect. Your post does not state a specific problem, what exactly do you need help with that is not working?

PFMaBiSmAd Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Are the settings actually getting changed? Check using a phpinfo(); statement. Telling us something does not work does not help us to help you. What exactly is it doing? What are the symptoms? Are there any errors? Have you checked your web server error log file or turned on full php error reporting to see if there are any errors? Add the following two lines immediately after your first opening <?php tag - ini_set ("display_errors", "1"); error_reporting(E_ALL); What is your script? Your settings might be correct but your script might not be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
