I forward email from my server to my ISP smtp account to send emails using PHP. I can't help with receiving emails as I haven't needed to do that. To send emails using PHP, I first install postfix, during the installation you have to answer some questions. type = ‘internet site’; mail name = ‘<your isp smtp server>’ You then need to set up forwarding mail so emails sent using PHP get forwarded through to the smtp server Forward the rootmail to your local account: * Typ: sudo vi /root/.forward * Typ usern...@localhost (your username and your localhostname!) <enter> Forward your local mail to the external account * Typ: vi /home/username/.forward * Typ the external email address <enter> Ian -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
