How does one get the ability to email using PHP?  I can't email out of ASP,
I have to call a component to get that service; either CDONTS or Dundas or
one of several others.  These components act like mini mail servers, format
an email and then forward it to the mail server of your choice.

I was ready to code in Perl because I can have access to MySQL there;
another requirement.  But I assume that PHP will access a database.

Yes and no. You will feel the real power of php at the time u are using it
under linux ;), since you can integrate/control nearly the whole system with
php. But such solutions are not cross-plattform.
