I know about the mail function in php:
mail ($to, $subject, $msg_body,$headers);

But since I cannot access my host’s php.ini file, I’ve been provided with the following details:

SMTP host: mailout.host.com 
Port: 25 SMTP
Username: email@domainname.com
SMTP Password: not required
Authentication: Disabled
Encryption: Disabled

How can I use these details to send out emails?

EDIT: I used example pointed by Blender (below) and it seems to work fine for all emails except gmail. Any idea why? Is it to do with Fully Qualified Address?

    You can use SwiftMailer (http://swiftmailer.org/) to send out emails through any email account you can login to, including gmail. It’s very robust, but does have a bug where it uses a lot of memory for emails that have a lot of html in them.
