Hey

I'm developing a web site using php (version 5.2.0). I want this web site to
be able to send email to the registered users of the web site. I use IIS as
web server. I'm developing using my winXP computer.

I use the php function mail() for sending mails
http://no2.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

The PROBLEM is that sending emails fails...

This is the error I get:
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 550 5.7.1 Unable to
relay for <here is the email address I use as from address>

Then I tryed to reconfigure the "Deafult SMTP Virtual Server":
In the Relay window I select "All except the list below" and restarts the
default smtp virtual server.

Then I don't get any error message any longer... But I don't get the email
my php web site sent either... So there must be something wrong with the
smtp configuration on my pc or well I'm not sure... I'm stucked here.. Hope
maybe someone here has some suggestions on what I should do
