As Keith and Richard already told, it is not enough to point PHP to an existing mail server, you also need to take care of proper authentication or relaying of messages. To get you started, here are two tutorials for sending mails with SMTP authentication (one using a PEAR class, the other uses sockets instead of the mail function): http://email.about.com/od/emailprogrammingtips/qt/PHP_Email_SMTP_Authentication.htm http://www.codewalkers.com/c/a/Email-Code/Smtp-Auth-Email-Script/ If your provider requires "SMTP after POP", it will be quite tricky (but not impossible) to send mails with PHP.
