mail() thru another server

[DYLG]

Hi

Our web server is pretty loaded and I would like to move qmail to another server. The php.ini config on mail are only for windows and were running red hat. How can I send email using the mail() function thru qmail running on another server?

Thanks

sendmail_path = sendmail -t -i

path to sendmail, maybe you can get it to point to another server, this is in your php.ini

It can't work if you change the sendmail path, you obviously can't use the sendmail script from outside the server without any change to sendmail/qmail. Doing more research, I found that the best solution would probably be not to use the mail() function but to build an smtp connection with the qmail program. If anyone found a better solution, let me know.

The smtp connection to an outside mail server should definitively be implement in php. 🙁
