As a point of warning - be sure that you know what you're doing before you simply enable an SMTP server that is externally routable. If you're not sure how SMTP servers work then you could be creating an open relay that people will quickly find and use to spam other people. When you turn on the IIS SMTP server it is initially enabled as an open relay. Be sure you spend some time learning how to lock it down so that your machine can't be used by spammers. And trust me, they'll probably find you within a matter of hours if you do have an externally routable IP. -M > -----Original Message----- > From: Wu, Jin Yong [mailto:jinyong.wu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Monday, May 09, 2005 1:56 AM > To: php-windows@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: RE: How to setup the mail server so that I > can use mail() function > > > enable SMTP Server in IIS and have a try.
