I am really not a big fan of putting smtp code into PHP on UNIX. The whole philosophy of UNIX is to have a collection of small specialized tools that work together instead of one mammoth tool. Which UNIX system does not have the ability to send mail? We really should not be re-inventing every wheel out there.
