Not with the mail function under Linux/Unix systems.

You may want to try this MIME message class that comes with a wrapper
function named smtp_mail(). That function emulates the mail() function
but lets you send messages to a SMTP server of your choice and supports
authentication.

You also need this for SMTP delivery:

and this for authentication:
