This will work from the dir that contains php.exe......

<?
    mail( "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "subject", "test" );
?>

here are the php.ini smtp lines...

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
;SMTP = stimpy - this works fine as does
SMTP = 192.168.0.2

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't see how this could be a config problem. The emails I have been
sending state that the script works *fine* from the same dir as php.exe. The
problem arises when I attempt to run the script from another directory...

Jeff.
