mail() function problem

Anon

I keep getting parse error everytime I use the MAIL() function. I tried different approaches and knowledge base without any resolution. Enclosed is a snippet of my php3.ini file and code used.

I am using NT4, IIS4, exchange smtp services

Thanks alot.

SMTP = abc.myserver.com ;for win32 only
sendmail_from = vcatrambone@abc.com ;for win32 only
sendmail_path = ;for unix only, may supply arguments as well (default is sendmail -t)

RESULT:

Test mail send

Parse error: parse error in c:\inetpub\wwwroot/testmail.php3 on line 5

The issue may be your FROM: information. I believe the 4th parameter of mail() is basically the mail header and must include "FROM: email_address" as opposed to just "email_address".

For a good little tutorial on structuring your data for use with mail(), check out Julie Meloni's article online at

Just a suggestion.
