First of all, this question should be posted to a PHP list: http://www.php.net/mailing-lists.php But, since you asked, you need to either supply your own local STMP mailer, or use a remote STMP server. Either works well. I'd highly suggest looking into using the PEAR Mail class: http://pear.php.net. Sean On 11/3/05, Hiep T.
