I can set the host and port, but I don't see that there is anywhere to specify
the username and password for an email account on a remote server.
Is that do-able? |

Not with the mail command.
However, the PHPMailer class as Micha suggests can handle such things
(and more) for you.

yes, thanks, easy to use.
However, to enable SSL, I had to add to my php.ini:
extension=php_openssl.dll
and also to place a copy of that dll into the .../ext directory. It's
apparently already finding libeay32.dll because my system path still points to
the old PHP installation |
