Hey there
I have a home server running. I am using wamp server. MY ISP (verizon) blocks port 25. Becaus of this i cant sent emails out from my php scripts( like feedbak forum). so i desided to get "Mail Relay Outbound Service" from www.dnsexit.com. I configured php.ini

Code:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = you@yourdomain


TO

Code:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = relay.dnsexit.com
smtp_port = 26

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = me@yourdomain


but the problem is dnsexit require that i enter username and password
so i installed pear and pear mail.
Now what text or script do i edit so i can enter the username and password.

pleas help
thank you

You need to modify the script that calls mail() currently. This line of code needs to be replaced by PEAR::Mail's calls. Examples can be found in the PEAR manual.

Well, you need factory(), but maybe this example helps you more:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail.send.php#package.mail.mail.send.example

Remember: You don't need mail() if you use PEAR::Mail.

The first example looks good for your issue. About mail(): see above, you don't need it anymore.

Hey there,

thank you for the fast replay.
my problem is i cant send mail from my PHP SCRITS. (which uses php.ini) because my ISP block port 25. so got dnsexit to mail relay. but in order for this to work, i need to enter username and password (i cant enter this information is php.ini). From searching on the web i came to understand that i can use PEAR ( i think). where in pear i can enter the username and password, port# etc..... .
my question is where is factory() ? is it in PEAR folder which is in php folder or is this something that i need to create?

Please help
thank you

Did you have a look at the examples? Especially the one that you've provided yourself?

You can find both the factory() call there, and also examples for using the Mail package with SMTP authentification. Simply copy one of the examples, replace the username and password etc., and it should work.

hey,
where do i copy the example to?Smile
see the problem that am having is " i dont know what file to edit in PEAR" Is it the "mail.php" file? If it is, there are two of these files in PEAR folder(one inside the PEAR folder and one in a sub-folder named MAIL).

Thank you for trying to help me

You need to edit the script that you're working with, i.e. the script that calls mail() currently. This call isn't needed anymore, instead you'll now need the code that is provided in the examples.

PEAR files or classes don't need to be modified.

If you have a specific question / problem, please ask with more details. I've already tried to give you the needed hints to find the lines of code that needs to be replaced by something like what you can see in the mentioned examples.
