look at the examples found on php.net for the mail() function...you'll need
to look at the examples that show sending headers...that should get you the
rest of the way.
if you have access to you smtp server's pick up directory, i'd recommend
just writing directly to it with the output. imho, php has always had weak
support for sending email...especially where authentication is concerned.
this approach takes a lot of guess work out of the picture. at this point,
you be troubleshooting your own pertanent code...get that working and then
you could play around with how you want/should be sending the mail based on
other constraints you may be under.

| Well, I just tried it like this:
|
| mail($emailTo, "Important email for you", $text, $mail);
|
| And that worked, though the resulting email looked blank but when I
| viewed it in notepad, most of the formatting looked roughly correct.
| I'll just paste that and maybe give a clue. I tried sending myself a
| simple mozilla composed html/plain text email and it looked 'similar'.
