Hi JC,
some php applications can connect over external smtp servers to send emails to 
users, but mostly they need their own mailserver. The recommended way is to use 
your own mailserver. I have choosen postfix for my own server - its easy to 
setup and works almost out of the box. I have given up with sendmail, didnt get 
it running on Slackware.

Hope that helps
herbs
