I tried using fopen('.....') on a script hosted at a domain that belongs to
me that sends email... trying it here (even calling the script elsewhere on
the internet 'http://www.mydomain.com') it wordked perfect...
then I tried the fsockopen alternative... it didn't work...
f2s runs in safemode... so in their faq, they tell us that if we won't some
more advanced scripts... to use the cgi version (script.cgi starting with
'#!/usr/bin/php'... and so on)... nothing works... they must have a real
protection against acessing outer files there...
