Failed to connect to mailserver

[grace01]

Hello,

My php program can send mail on php 5. But some of other php programs cannot work on php 5, so I switch to php 4. Now my php program cannot send mail. I use remote smpt server to send mail. I got error:

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in htmlMimeMail.ph p on line 670. Actually I already configured to use remote smtp server not localhost. Why php5 can detect my setting in htmlMimeMail.ph p but php 4 cannot? What should I do?

My server os is windows.

Thanks

Grace

Refer to the line specified in htmlMimeMail.ph p and set the smtp host name with the Service providers Smtp host name and port. I think in your file it is "localhost" but your service provider is using another name. like "smtp.ispname.c om".
