eits Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Sendmail is a mail transfer app that runs on linux servers allowing them to send mail. You will need to find an alternative way to send mail.

arianhojat Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Maybe Postcast Server if u can get it to work for you. i got it to 'work' with a user based site i was testing on my machine but hotmail, yahoo, and others didnt like reciving emails from me. try googling up free smtp server and see what else u find.

tippy_102 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 There is a fake sendmail for windows available at http://glob.com.au/sendmail/ It may or may not work for you - all it does is forward the email to your ISP's smtp server.....some ISP's don't allow that.
