How do I setup so mail() will work under windows?

I changed my php.ini file as SMTP= smtp.mail.yahoo.com,but it gives a server problem,why?

No problem. Just set:

    SMTP   = the.mail.server.name   ;for win32 only
    sendmail_from = you@wherever.com ;for win32 only

in your php.ini file and then call the mail function as described in the
manual.

I'm encountering problems configuring this for a shared server 
environment.  Users of virtual web hosts have different mail servers on 
other machines.  There appears to be no facility to set the SMTP server 
within the script.  Is there any way to do this?

Thanks.  --mark--
