Who’s the idiot that decided to disable php.ini’s SMTP variable on linux and assume that everyone can use sendmail off the local box? Apparently, its a windows only setting. So its not that PHP can’t support using an SMTP server, its that they specifically disable that feature on linux. Brilliant.

Enter smtp_mail.php a php class that works similar to mail() but honors what you have set in php.ini. Not a perfect solution, but better than nothing.
