I tried everything, editing the ONLY php.ini on my system, rebooting,
even ini_set... and so on...
Searched google for hours before I posted here.. No luck! I DID find
quite some other users who had the exact same problem! But never got an
answer as well... So sniper, before you post again: I am appearantly not
the only retard/one who has this problem!!! The exact description is in
my first post... Can not think of anything else...

The ini setting for STMP can be changed anywhere. Saying that it simply
doesn't work doesn't help any.

And this machine is a clean install of Windows XP Pro with Apache
2.0.49 and PHP 4.3.7 with no extra IIS stuff or local mail servers
running and PHP.INI is configured to use a 3rd party mail server?

I just tried on 3rd Windows XP machine since your claim this doesn't
work and guess what: IT STILL works...

Have you seen the Votes? Obviously I am NOT the only one. Hey sniper,
can you perhaps have someone else look at it who does not immediately
dismiss a bug report to avoid extra work? Furthermore, second oppinion
is always a good idea of course... Thanks!

It works fine for everyone else but you, thus, you must be doing
something wrong. Simple.

Apache2 module.
Only 1 PHP.ini file. Searched entire system.
I AM using "show extensions" option in WinXP, so I do not have
php.ini.ini

Are you using PHP as Apache module or CGI? Do you have 
php.ini files anywhere else on the system? 



[2004-06-07 07:34:58] herps at raqtweak dot com

OK just did that, still nothing!!

You have to reboot before the php.ini kicks in, it seems.

Description:

I run a small server on WinXP Professional.
Apache 2.0.49, PHP 4.3.7 and mySQL 4.0.20

My PHP.ini file is in C:\Windows.
I see this when I do a phpinfo();

I edit register_globals from off to on for example, and restart apache.
That works.

Now, I edit 
SMTP = localhost
to
SMTP = mail.my-other-server.com

save, and restart Apache.
Mail function doesn't work. So I check my phpinfo();
It STILL shows localhost. PHP.ini shows mail.my-other-server.com

It just does not seem to load this value from PHP.ini

Expected result:

Change in phpinfo();

Actual result:
--
No change.
