ID: 11779 User Update by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Mail related Operating system: Win 2000 PHP Version: 4.0.6 Description: mail() returns an "Unknown error ..." in line [mail(...)] It wasn't a bug. I placed the php.ini in winnt\system32, not in winnt. Now it's on the right place and it works. Sorry, best wishes for php.

I want to create a mail while using this code: ------------------------------------- <script language="php"> echo ("--- line before mail function ---"); mail ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "PHP mail test","test mail body"); echo ("--- line after mail function ---"); </script> ------------------------------------- I got this result: -------------------------------------- --- line before mail function --- Warning: Unknown error in C:Inetpubwwwrootphprootmail.php on line 17 --- line after mail function --- In the php.ini I changed the SMTP entry several times. I could change it in a valid, an invalid mailserver or i commentet it out (;SMTP = ]), I always got the same result. For me It seems that the php engine ignores the SMTP entry. I didn't got help in the php newsgroups, so I think it is'nt a simple problem. So I hope you can help me.
