Hiya all,

I'm trying to create an SMTP server relay in IIS 6.0 so that I can us
PHP's 'mail()' (http://www.php.net/mail) function. I want all mail t
me sent to a different SMTP server for handling. I have an SMTP serve
on paid host which requires authentication.

The problem is that with the php.ini file there is a setting for th
SMTP server address and port, but none for authentication. I understan
that SMTP server with in IIS can authenticate based on IP address.

So how can I set up an SMTP Virtual Server in IIS 6.0 to route al
email generated by PHP to my paid hosting which require
authentication?

I've searched all over and cannot find a guide that works. I also hav
not enabled port routing with in Routing & Remote Access, does the por
needed to be forwarded to 127.0.0.1 for SMTP to work? Bearing in min
that the PHP scripts will be run on the same server?

Can anyone please give me a simple guide as to how I should setup up a
SMTP Virtual Server to acomplish my goal?


Thank you all for your time,

Brent Newbur
