Re: how send email using zend php?

You are doing pretty much what you are doing Steve - and it works just fine.

This is the equivalent bit of my script.

// Set for e-mail
ini_set ( "SMTP", 'xxx.yy.z.n' );
ini_set ( "sendmail_from", "info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" );
ini_set("smtp_port", "25");//define the receiver of the email

Notice that I am using the IP address of the server because the mail server's name is not known to my system's DNS.

From the error you are getting it looks like you have the same problem - try using the IP address instead and see if it works. If it does then you have a DNS issue - not a php one.

what do you mean "without a mail router"? I do not have the PHP.INI file
setup to send mail. Was hoping the PHP "ini_set" functions would take
care of that.

Looks like it's trying to send directy without a mail router if it's trying
to look up mail severs for the recipients domain.

I am able to send mail from the ibm i using QTMMSENDMAIL API.
Meaning the mail server framewok is running?

here is the PHP code I am running. thanks,

<?php
$serverUrl = 'mail.company.com' ;
$smtp_port = 25 ;
$fromMail = 'is_dept@xxxxxxxxxxx' ;
$toMail = 'target@xxxxxxxxx' ;

ini_set("SMTP", $serverUrl) ;
ini_set("sendmail_from", $fromMail ) ;
ini_set("smtp_port", $smtp_port ) ;

$message = "this mail message sent from IBM i" ;
$headers = "From: " . $fromMail ;
mail( $toMail, 'test subject', $message, $headers) ;

echo "check mail. message sent." . "<br>" ;

?>
