Dean,

I was told by my host that,"...normal users are not allowed to access the SMTP socket in the server for security reasons.  So you cannot use this method. :shock:
You need to use the second method 'Internal PHP mail()'."

Okay....I've tried it in every combo of input that I could think of and I keep getting that the Server in NOT enabled. :oops:

What do I do now.....besides find another host....which I WILL....but, until then....I have to get this working.  :cry:

Thanks in advance. :D

Ruben,

You can try disabling SMTP and using PHP mail() as your host suggested (ListMail "Configuration" page).  After that, I highly recommend considering one of the recommended hosts:
