Im using the php mail() function to try send an email to a user that has just registered.
mail($HTTP_POST_VARS['emailaddress1'], 'Matchmakers Website Registration' , 'Welcome');
But when I get the following error back.: Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Can someone help me out, by telling me what it means or what Im doing wrong?
(Thank you Jason for the introduction! :-)
That means your SMTP server requires authentication to relay messages. The mail function does not support SMTP authentication.
Alternatively, you may want to try this class that comes with a wrapper function named smtp_mail(). It works like the mail() function but lets you specify the authentication user name and password.

You also need these two:
