Oh!  It depends upon the system's php.ini configuration.  For which
there might be many.  Here is an (older) 7.0 system for example.

    /etc$ find php* -name php.ini
    php/7.0/cli/php.ini
    php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
    php/7.0/fpm/php.ini

And the php.ini for both FPM and Apache contains:

    [mail function]
    ; For Win32 only.
    ; http://php.net/smtp
    SMTP = localhost
    ; http://php.net/smtp-port
    smtp_port = 25

My bad for posting my previous misguided information.  Sorry about that.

Bob
