E-mail Print PDF

If you want to disable default smtp server in IIS and use the mail through any remote mail server you can use the pear package. To activate the pear mail service in your php kindly go through the following steps

According to my guide , I guess you have already installed php under your IIS

Open the command prompt in your server go to the php installed folder

eg : cd c:\php

execute the following command to install pear

c:\php\go-pear

give all those default

that will install pear

 

now if you try to send the mail through pear it may generate the following error

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'Mail.php' (include_path='.;c:\php\pear') in

 

This message indicate you have to install the pear mail package, you can install pear mail package by giving the following command in command prompt

c:\php\pear install mail

this will install the pear mail package

 

If you try to send the mail again you may get the following error

Warning: Mail_smtp::include_once(Net/SMTP.php) [function.Mail-smtp-include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\php\PEAR\Mail\smtp.php on line 206

Warning: Mail_smtp::include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening 'Net/SMTP.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;c:\php\pear') in C:\php\PEAR\Mail\smtp.php on line 206

Fatal error: Class 'Net_SMTP' not found in C:\php\PEAR\Mail\smtp.php on line 210

 

This error indicate you have to install Pear Net_SMTP package , you can install that through the following command in command prompt

c:\php\pear install Net_SMTP

Now you have installed PEAR packages to send the email with SMTp authentication.
