Mail Settings

[Fedlerner]

Hi!
I'm installing a script which needs to send mails in some cases...

And it gives me these three options...

1)

"Standard Mail"

2)

"Send Mail"
Path to send mail:

3)

"SMTP"
SMTP Host:
SMTP Port: (BY DEFAULT COMES 25)
Use SMTP Authenication: (OPTIONS YES OR NO)
SMTP User:
SMTP Password:

I want to know which one of this ones are supported by x10hosting, which are the differences between them and which option would you recommend me.

Thanks!

"Standard Mail" probably uses with PHP mail() function... I'd say go with that. SMTP means it would connect to x10's SMTP (ie. outgoing mail) server, and send a message from your account, whereas the PHP function sends it from the server (I think). Not sure what "Send Mail" is... looks like some kind of external script would be required though.

Any other recommendations?...
