Pls i need someone to help me with this SMTP configuratin in my mail script(PHP)

SMTP Server: your domain name
SMTP Port: 25
SMTP Username: email address you created
SMTP Password: the password of the email account you created

pls how do i code this in my mail script in php

except you are doing some kind of OOP, just using mail() function would send out emails, no need to assign values to your port and what not / configure your php.ini

mail('email', $subject, $body,
"To: Contact Name <email>\n" .
"From: Sender Name<email>\n" .
"cc: Extra Contact Name <email>\n" .
"X-Mailer: PHP 4.x";

PLS CHECK THIS CODE FOR ME. IS IT NOT CORRECT?


$date=date("d-m-y";

if($date=='02-03-10')
{
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$email=$row[email];
$recipient = $email;

$mailsent=mail($email,$subject,$body3,$headers);
if($mailsent)
{
echo"Mail has been sent to $email<br>";
}
else
{
echo"No Mail has been sent to $email";
}

}
}

syntax seem right, it is generating an error ?

yes but now working fine. Only that i dont know how to modify the sender's name. It is writing the email username.
I dont know if i can change it to a desired name such as "heralds bulletin"

And it only delivers to the spam folder. what can i do

the from field will assign the sender's name in the code i gave,

if its going to spam, include the sender's address in your contacts' list

If it doesn't write the name in the from field instead it uses email address then

Put your email address in this manner in the sender's field

<email address here> Name here

this causes your name to be used instead of your email address when mail is delivered!
