I saw something like that on 
http://email.about.com/od/emailprogrammingtips/qt/PHP_Email_SMTP_Authentication.htm,
 and this is probably what you are talking about?

 $smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',
   array ('host' => $host,
     'auth' => true,
     'username' => $username,
     'password' => $password));
Do I still need to install a mail server? I have Evolution Mail on my Linux 
box, and looks like that is a client and not a server. 
Or, can I use any of the mail smtp setup, like Google? Or, do use some 
authentication information from 
http://helpme.att.net/pdf/uverse/uverse_hsi_qsg_english.pdf, since I use 
U-Verse at home? 

Thanks for your help.

Alice
