Best MTA out there!
Join the mailing list too, it's pretty funny at times.

Yeah, with the SMTP thing, I think that because I'm
using Linux, PHP defaults to Sendmail.  In my php.in
I've got the following...

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED]

; For Unix only.  You may supply arguments as well.
; sendmail_path = /home/eXtremail/bin/smtpd

All my mail just disappears into mid air now!
Well, all mail coming from my site anyway!

Any Ideas?
