Dear All,
I am a beginner at PHP. I was studying the curl library and I came across
CURLOPT_URL.I think this can be used similar to wget ? What would be the
major differences in these 2 ?
Thank you,
Ashim

Hi Lukasz,
This tool looks great. Since I couldn't find the info on the site or in
your e-mail. Does keep track of aborted/cancel downloads in progress also?
Thanks,
Tommy

Probably not the solution you were looking for, but I've always found
mail()
very unstable and I tend to use a mail library instead. Like phpmailer or
swiftmailer. Easier to configure and figure out problems with.

Peter, that is warranted advice here.
I'm a little new to PHP. I'm set up to develop Apache/PHP/MySQL on my PC
uploading results to a unix server. My situation here is that I am trying
to get a PHP Mailing List program running for a friend's business web site
(on unix). That program has 2 options for mailing: 1) mail()/SMTP and
2) phpmailer options. Mail()/SMTP works, at least, on my PC. But I can't
get either of
the two emailing options to work on the UNIX server. (Whatever those mail
problems are, it is mangled with odd PHP/MySQL problems on unix).
I'm just 'back here' starting debugging with the mail()/SMTP option on
unix and my conclusion based on feedback above (thank you) is that email
IS reaching the unix SMTP server but is not being forwarded (and that's
unresolved now).
My mentioned "SMTP server echo problem" is irrelevant. Maybe they fixed it
last night, or maybe I was smoking something yesterday. It IS echoing
correctly.
I finally figured out that part of my problem was misunderstanding a
warning
message caused by my not single quoting SMTP (yikes!).
Or maybe I was just
enraged over my lack of success all day yesterday to confirm Apache server
information on the unix server (which would help me guarantee that I have
the same Apache/PHP/MySQL configurations between the PC and unix servers).
But today the SMTP server info IS echo'd on the unix server. From the Unix
server ...
