I have edited my code to hold the information as we have discussed earlier, and this is the error I have now: Warning: include_once(Net/SMTP.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/share/php/Mail/smtp.php on line 348 Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening 'Net/SMTP.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /usr/share/php/Mail/smtp.php on line 348 Fatal error: Class 'Net_SMTP' not found in /usr/share/php/Mail/smtp.php on line 349 I am not sure what this means. If I have installed pear correctly, what else do I have to do here? I can see that I have some "significant" error messages than not getting anything at all. Thanks for your help.
