Configure mail to use Gmail smtp

[debussy007]

Hello,

I have read here : http://www.geekzone.co.nz/tonyhughes/599
that I can use Gmail as a free SMTP server.

Is it possible to change the php.ini in order to have this running ?

I need to specify in some way the following :

Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: smtp.gmail.com (use authentication)
Use Authentication: Yes
Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
Port: 465 or 587
Account Name: your Gmail username (including '@gmail.com')
Email Address: your original isp address (username@isp.c0m)
Password: your Gmail password



I can see in the php.ini that I can specify the port, smtp server and the from.

But how do I do for he other parameters ?

Thank you !!

I succeeded using the Zend Framework.

i'm quite sure you can't with php's built-in mail() function.

however more advanced modules should support it. look in PEAR, google
for phpmailer, etc. i'm sure there's got to be some. worst case i
think you have all the tools in PHP to make your own anyway.

the only possible problem is that with Gmail you cant send too many mails at
once, more than 30 or so and it gives you an error .  so if you are going to
be doing mass mailing you may not be able to use it.
