Hi,
Problem is realted to your smtp server.
Make sure it allowed outgoing mail without authenctication.
You must also set a header in fourth parameter of mail function, it is
good practice and can save you from some basic indentification problems.
In windows you can set default send mail from in php.ini
Try
Mail("you@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx","test subject","test
body","from:your_email@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\r\r");
If it fails contact your ISP.

Subject: php mail() error
Im using the php mail() function to try send an email to a user that has
just registered.
mail($HTTP_POST_VARS['emailaddress1'], 'Matchmakers Website
Registration' , 'Welcome');
But when I get the following error back.:
Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for
garth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Can someone help me out, by telling me what it means or what Im doing
wrong?
Thanx
