What you need to do is set your SMTP server inside the php.ini file...
[mail function]
SMTP = smtp.server.com ; for win32 only
sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; for win32 only
;sendmail_path = ;for unix only, may supply arguments as well ; (default
is
sendmail -t)
The test string I used to make sure my example worked:
?php
print mail ('[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'No need for reply -- PHP test!', /* subject */
hi JohnnLine 2n);/* body*/

Thanks :) Diana I can't comment on how your company's Exchange servers are configured, but they absolutely *can* talk SMTP. We are using a web-based application that sends email notifications through our internal Exchange servers. Now, they can be set up with SMTP turned off, or so that only certain other hosts can relay through them (send mail), and that might be what he's talking about when he says the authenticated list. I believe it's simply a list of hosts that are allowed to relay through the Exchange SMTP server. You'd be fine using SMTP on a connector server. It will relay the mail to the appropriate mailbox server (assuming they've separate the functions). Out of curiosity, why not give them the IP address and let them add the host to the authenticated sender list, as he offered? Or did I miss a part of the converation (very possible). --- Manuel Lemos [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb: Hello, On 06/11/2003 05:38 PM, Diana wrote: Hi, just today I stumbled into the same problem.

If you still have problems, just use the classes that I mentioned enabling direct delivery mode in the SMTP sending attributes. That does the same as sendmail but at least if it fails you can enable debugging to see what the SMTP protocol dialog reveals. --- Manuel Lemos [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb: Hello, On 06/10/2003 04:44 PM, Matthias Wulkow wrote: a friend of mine is trying to set up an automated mailing function.

Re: [PHP] Re: mail() function exchange
Hi, my company set their server up not to talk SMTP (disabled all -- that guy told me), and my tries to connect or talk to any of their Exchange servers failed :( so he must be true. Got onto their NT servers though ;) All the company uses Outlook Exchange, they use mapi to talk to each other. If a manager can`t be in the network, he`s connected via VPN uses Outlook as well. They`ve got a trust relationship between their NT servers the Exchange ones, lots of domains joined. As I said, I don`t have a clue of Exchange so correct me if something sounds strange. To your suggestions: of course that would be easy for me to tell them to set up a new box for me. They`ll do that. But who likes the easy way ;)? No, just my curiosity, maybe someone knows how the protocol or whatever these M$ servers use is working I could try to implement that. Would make my project more portable inside the company (They plan to use it on other sites as well), so they wouldn`t have problems with setting up separate Internal Mailsweepers everytime :). Can you tellme more about : You'd be fine using SMTP on a connector server. It will relay the mail to the appropriate mailbox server is that working even if SMTP is not enabled? The guy told me that SMTP is not enabled by default on Exchange servers and they didn`t change that! (that`s the reason for me to ask how that system works in the wholehow does outlook send the mail to the exchange server? Could it be that all the users just access something like a directory on the exchange server when starting their outlook (not a local program! not working when the exchange server crashed ;)). Maybe that`s the LDAP part? Anyone enlighten me please.. by the way, a lot of people ask these questions see here http://www.phpbuilder.com/mail/php3-list/199908/0344.php http://www.linuxsa.org.au/mailing-list/2000-07/954.html http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/13043/fid/21 I can't comment on how your company's Exchange servers are configured, but they absolutely *can* talk SMTP. We are using a web-based application that sends email notifications through our internal Exchange servers. Now, they can be set up with SMTP turned off, or so that only certain other hosts can relay through them (send mail), and that might be what he's talking about when he says the authenticated list. I believe it's simply a list of hosts that are allowed to relay through the Exchange SMTP server. You'd be fine using SMTP on a connector server. It will relay the mail to the appropriate mailbox server (assuming they've separate the functions). Out of curiosity, why not give them the IP address and let them add the host to the authenticated sender list, as he offered? Or did I miss a part of the converation (very possible). __ Gesendet von Yahoo!

Re: [PHP] Re: mail() function exchange
Hi, just today I stumbled into the same problem. It is true, I got this answer from an expert: Unfortunately this will not work. SMTP relaying is disabled on all the Exchange connector servers and a standard Exchange mailbox server does not support SMTP. The only way that you can send SMTP email from within our company is to use the Internal MailSweeper. And to allow this we need the IP Address of the box that will be sending the messages so that we can include it in the authenticated list. We have to have things set up this way for Security reasons. One other thing I should have mentioned. Outlook uses mapi to send on the Exchange servers. So we can use the mapisend command but I do not know if your application would support this. I think that this may also need a valid Outlook profile to work. I don`t understand that either, because I am trying to use my Linux server (inside my companys network) to deliver mails to the exchange server via sendmail. If anyone knows more about this topic, let me know.sorry that this obviously does not belong to a php list, but I deleted the original email could not find the email address of the author of this topic :( --- Manuel Lemos [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb: Hello, On 06/10/2003 04:44 PM, Matthias Wulkow wrote: a friend of mine is trying to set up an automated mailing function.

Can the mail() function send emails to multiple addresses which are

[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc with a
comma or a semicolon between them?

RE: [PHP] Re: mail() function
Not strictly true, the mail function will send to multiple email addresses
separated by a comma, you can also cc and bcc by using headers. See the
manual, which has some good examples of this.

I don't *think* you can even do it with just PHP's fsockopen to the much-hated Open Relays of the world... Or, at least, they'd be tracked back to that Open Relay anyway... That might be sufficient for your purposes, whatever they are. I suggest, however, that you re-examine your purpose, and decide if it's really worthy of your time and talent. For what it's worth, the only way to create a convincing fake routing history in a message's headers is to find an open relay that doesn't properly stamp mail it receives. There are a very few SMTP servers which will receive and forward a piece of mail without adding a Received: line that says where they got it from. Thankfully these machines are almost all gone since they have been brutally punished by spammers pumping messages through them. They're also listed on blacklists, so many people (myself included) wouldn't see messages that came through them. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
