[PHP] SMTP - Authorization?

2003-08-26 Thread Mathiau
Hey all!

glad to bea here! got alot to learn!

k,

basically i am sending out a mailing list to customers, - using a PHP
script, however the SMTP i am using needs to have Authorization to log into
the outgoing SMTP  - i HAVE to use this authentication no if's and ot
butt's., otherwise i will be blocked by Yahooo / AOL and some other provider
for running a relay SMTP as they see it and contirbuting to spammers by
allow anon acces to my smtp.

I know i can put my SMTP server on an internal ip so the outside world can
not see if but that is a bandaid fix for me - i want to know if PHP can use
an SMTP server that requires authotization to use it?


HELP! me searches for this have turned up no results or people simply not
knowing what i need to get done.

Matt.

The mail() function does not support authentication. You may want to try

this SMTP class that lets you send messages via a server that requires 
authentication.

http://www.phpclasses.org/smtpclass

Use it in conjunction with this other class that lets you compose and 
send properly formatted messages:
