I have used phpmailer with great success. Here is a code snippet that works for me: http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/ <?php require("../phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php"); $html = "<html><body><h1>Hello World!</h1></body></html>"; $mail = new PHPMailer(); $mail->IsHTML(true); $mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP $mail->Host = "mail.yourdomain.com"; // SMTP server (sendmail) $mail->From = "TestMessage@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; $mail->FromName = "Test Message"; $mail->AddAddress("you@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"); $mail->AddAddress("youtoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"); $mail->AddCC("me@xxxxxxxxxxxx"); $mail->AddCC("metoo@xxxxxxxxxxxx"); $mail->Subject = "Printer Request for $System"; $mail->Body = $html; if(!$mail->Send()) { print "<html><body>"; print "Message was not sent<br>"; print "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo; print "</body></html>"; } else { print "<html><body><h1>Message Sent</h1></body></html>"; }
