Mail（）不会在Windows Server2003中发送

Question

I installed PHP in windows server 2003. All the files are working fine except the mail issue. There is no problem in SMTP. Because I run the JSP project in the same server.In that mail function working fine. So where is the problem? And how can i manage? I set the SMTP server in PHP as

; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

Answer 1

Does the SMTP service need authentication? Maybe there is a setting in the JSP code which authenticates against the SMTP server? You could look at the JSP code to see if there is a different SMTP configuration.

Another reason could be that the SMTP allows only specific sender addresses/domains. Are the sender addresses of the PHP and JSP applications different?

Answer 2

If your smtp server is not exposed and protected behind a firewall you can allow relay and that should take care of it.

If not then verify you can send the email you want using telnet
