mail() function error: (SMTP server response: 501 5.5.4 Invalid Address)

[Ronald Raygun]

I am calling the mail() function in a PHP script and I get the ff error:

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 501 5.5.4 Invalid
Address in C:\test\test.ph p on line 394

Relevant Info:

OS: Win2k
Web Server Apache: v2.2.8

Has anyone come accross this before - and whats the solution?

It means your MTA has rejected the mail for some reason. You need to
find out what your MTA accepts and rejects.

If I had to guess, either that server doesn't support the FROM / REPLY TO
address or the TO address. figure out which, and why, with the help of the
server admins of the particular SMTP server.
