Hi,<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/12/22 Andrew Thomas <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:andy@datavox.co.uk">andy@datavox.co.uk</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
You don't really need to use any local MTA if you use the sendEmail<br>
script.<br>
<br>
I got it from - <a href="http://www.caspian.dotconf.net/menu/Software/SendEmail/" target="_blank">http://www.caspian.dotconf.net/menu/Software/SendEmail/</a><br>
<br>
This actually works by 'talking' directly to any SMTP server - even<br>
remote ones (I use our Exchange server for our e-mails).</blockquote><div><br>I will second Andrew's advice regrading SendEmail :<br>for me, SendEmail and esmtp were very easy to install, compared to default exim4, which required a better understanding of emailing.<br>
<br>Though, I must also say I couldn't (in a short time frame) figure out how to send emails using SendEmail and 1and1's AUTH LOGIN process.<br>(so I used another ISP which let me use AUTH PLAIN logins).<br><br>Cheers<br>
