As I explained, the class comes with a wrapper function named smtp_mail() that emulates mail() function (but without the bugs). All you need to do is to replace mail() calls by smtp_mail() calls including smtp_mail.php where needed.

Even if you do not want to replace anything, you can still try the class test scripts to see if it works for you. If it doesn't, it will provide helpful error messages unlike the mail() function. Now it is up to you if you want to progress in solving your problem.

I'm running under Win2k, new install of PHP(last week), I have

been trying

to test the mail() function, but it doesn't seem to work.  I host my own
mail server on the same machine and I know it works, has been

for months,

all other mail come/goes just fine.  I don't have the default

SMTP server

for IIS installed since I have my own SMTP/POP3 mail server on this same
server.

I have tried it with the following:
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "test message", "this is a test");

I have SMTP authentication turned off on my mail server for

this testing.

It never arrives, I never get an error.

I can telnet to port 25, all works fine.

phpinfo.php reports that everything looks good, only thing i

saw was that

the extension directory shows c:\php4 instead of c:\php.

I don't have any extra .dll's or anything turned on since it

has built-in

support for MySQL.

Have you tried this alternative as I suggested in this other message to
you? Many people solved their problem with it, so can you.
