I am totally confused. Who uses an SMTP server written in PHP? mail() just writes a bit of stuff into a mail queue by default.

- UnoriginalGuy 14y agoPeople set their PHP config to connect to a remote SMTP server rather than a local queue. It isn't something you can control in the code.
- jcampbell1 14y agoThanks, I understand. Configuring PHP that way would be an unmitigated disaster. If you want that functionality, it makes the most sense to configure Exim or whatever to do that for you.
