Yes, you're right. I have just solved my first problem. Now, I can send e-mails via php and they are scanned by SA. My solution is using another computer to send e-mails across private lan.
I'm trying to solve the second problem. It is how to send an e-mail with a fake header that is as like as header of real mail. Can you help me to solve this problem. Is there any program that can send an e-mail with header that i can chose. Thank you everybody and sorry to ask twice.
