DeanWhitehouse Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Yes, and you shouldn't need to change anything, i take it you are setting up your own server?

PFMaBiSmAd Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Web servers are not responsible for sending email. You need an email server to send email, unless you are only sending it to yourself, in which case you can send it directly to your email address by using SMTP authentication. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/143277-qustion-about-sending-mail/#findComment-751414 Share on other sites More sharing options...
