Sorry for the late reply - the MsSQL worm of late knocked out my email :(
So, your PHP server is offsite. What kind of access to this machine do you
have? Is it simply FTP/HTTP? If so, your options will be limited.
If you don't have access to PHP.INI, you could use the ini_set() command:
ini_set("SMTP", "newvalue");
ini_set("sendmail_from","[EMAIL PROTECTED]");
You would have to do that each time you wanted to send mail.
It is possible (if the host is using Apache) you can set up a ".htaccess"
file (you'll have to change that in the config because windows hates dot
filenames) to change the values there. The syntax is like php_value, I
don't use it enough to remember exactly what it wants.
Debugging would most likely require some kind of administrative access to
either the web server or the mail server. Most likely the mail server. I
have had relay issues abound with Exchange servers (even when set to their
DEFAULT relay capable status, stupid *stupid* Microslop). I gave up and
just pointed it to my linux box instead. Worked fine for internal emails,
though (i.e. for domains Exchange handled).
