    'lo folks,
    When I try to send an e-mail through php, I keep getting the following error:

    "Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for [e-mail address] in e:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\e-mail.php on line 13"

    I'm presuming it's something to do with the php.ini file or the apache server settings.
    Any ideas how to get around this?

    Thanks,
    S.

    Do you have a mail server set up on the box? if so is the php.ini file configured to use it?

    Sounds like the mail server you have specified in your php.ini file won't send mail for that email address. That is, mail1.eircom.net won't send email for any addresses except *@eircom.net for example.

    If you're using a mail server set up on your own machine, it's probably in its settings somewhere to allow mail from domain x.
