For the purposes of this task, mailer is not an option.
This is a class assignment to put us into the weeds.
I am neck deep googling the heck out of this and finding snippets of
un-related code which do not fit.
Just because you can't use php-mailer in your project doesn't mean you
can't use it as a reference.
Grab phpmailer and look at the process it follows to do smtp sending.
smtp authentication is a pain at the best of times but trying to do it
the way you are now will just drive you mad (been there, done that).
Looking at a working code sample will make things a lot clearer in your
head rather than random code from 100 different locations.
http://www.cosmonroe.org/~devin/postfix/smtp-auth.txt under "SMTP
Authentication" will give you an idea of what you need to do but there
is a ton more error checking and validation you need to do along the way.
