Not really - simply relying on SMTP from a PHP script is not really a

server.
That's exactly what I'm doing :). But I'm trying to avoid having to
setup another box with postifx and all the other stuff on it.
Basically I don't want to maintain my own SMTP server. I'd like a 3rd
party service which I can just send the emails to and they would send
it out on my behalf
Okay, coffee's kicking it and I think I get this a little more. Of
course, I could be wrong...
Check out DynDNS. I've used them for DNS and mail port altering services
when I hosted my own site in-house (literally). Their support was always
pretty good. When I get back to doing stuff this will be the first place
I look for a solution.
