Hello!

i hope its really a bug and not a documentation problem, but I did'nt found a way to 
solve the problems in several php web sites, manuals or newsgroups :-(

My system:
Windows 2000
PHP 4.0.6 (win32 binary downloaded from php.net)
Apache 1.3.12 an IIS (Win2000-included)
   I used both! webservers  on different ports, I got exactly the same result!

I want to create a mail while using this code:
-------------------------------------
<script language="php">
    echo ("--- line before mail function ---");
    mail ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "PHP mail test","test mail body");
    echo ("--- line after mail function ---");
</script>
-------------------------------------

I got this result:
--------------------------------------
--- line before mail function ---
Warning: Unknown error in C:Inetpubwwwrootphprootmail.php on line 17
--- line after mail function --- 

In the php.ini I changed the SMTP entry several times. I could change it in a valid, 
an invalid mailserver or i commentet it out (;SMTP = ]), I always got the same result.
For me It seems that the php engine ignores the SMTP entry.

I didn't got help in the php newsgroups, so I think it is'nt a simple problem.
So I hope you can help me.

Best regards
