I can't send email from my webserver on Mac OS X Leopard.

[vigour]

Dear forum,

When I run my php script on my web hotel it works without problem. Sending emails as it should. I use php standard mail function.

But when I run the same script on my own webserver no email is sent from the webserver. My webserver is a Mac mini running Mac OS X Leopard latest version with apache2, php, mysql, pureftpd manager, imagemagick. Can someone please tell me what the problem is?

What is the error you are getting? I dont really know much about running apache on Mac OS X but have you checked your SMTP in your php.ini file ?

This is how my php.ini file looks like:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = localhost
; http://php.net/smtp-port
smtp_port = 25

ok so where is this hosted on a home web server? or out there somewhere in the big wide world?

you prob need to change SMTP = localhost to somthing like smtp.btinternet.com or what ever your smtp address is.

again im not sure if this is just a windows this or a if it applies to macs as well, but its worth ago.

I tried what you said and it did not work. No email sent so I looked in my mail log.
