Hi
Wanting to write php that will send email from my Freeola hosted website using MySql to store the email addresses. Does freeola allow php access to the relevant software to enable my site to send emails from a php script?
Thanks

Hi DaveShep,
Welcome to the forum.

You should be able to use Freeola's sendmail service [usr/sbin/sendmail] but you'll have to follow the guidelines in the form_to_mail help page [URL]http://freeola.com/support/form_to_mail/form_to_mail.php[/URL].

Some of the requirements are there to stop your script being taken over by someone creating spam - recently the service has been affected by badly secured scripts being compromised and swamping the system!
Something to consider as you write your script...

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Brilliant service.
