LiamProductions Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 SMTP = Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. Maybe the IP is for the login page or something Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/69774-can-the-smtp-server-be-an-ip-address/#findComment-350561 Share on other sites More sharing options...
