sendmail in e107

why when I try to use anything other than SMTP on e107 it fails to send the email? If I leave it on the PHP setting, it fails to send and asks me to set up my server correctly, and if I do sendmail it says it sent it but it never gets received.

Sendmail is only used in linux boxes, unless you use some type of sendmail-like clone.
If you use PHP settings, then you must have the correct SMTP settings in your php.ini file
and it must not require any authentication.

I run an e107 site for testing and I have mail set up for PHP. I have my ISP's SMTP details
in my php.ini file. All mail sends just fine.

If you're still having trouble, try this script. It will send mail through your Gmail account to any address. I've used it on a few different sites I run.
