I am pretty new with the options of sending email via PHP code. The options available are sendmail, postfix, and PHPMail. If I use sendmail and postfix this means that I have to use PHP’s mail function. I don’t know about PHPMail. I will be sending email across domains (hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc). It’s an automatic email sent to a user’s email after they completed something (say a registration). What do you guys think about this?

I’ve tried setting up sendmail in my Ubuntu server, but had some difficulties in setting it up. So that’s why I am probably looking for more options.

    You need a MTA (mail transport agent) on your machine (sendmail, postifx, …) or you can connect to a mail provider like gmail using SMTP.

    PHPMailer might be a good class for sending emails if you’re not using any framework.

    PHPMailer is on Google Code and GitHub.
