[SumitGupta]

Hi,

I am writing a application which use fsockopen to connect to pop3 mail server and check mails. It works fine for me.
But, Now i am having problem with checking same server.

I mean when i try to connect to example.com from a script running at http://www.example.com/myscript.php it doesn't connect to server gives

Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known 

Any idea why???

Thanks for help

Have you tried using "localhost"?
