ph_sendsmtpemail

Argument	Description
Server	String. The IP or DSN of the SMTP server.
Port	Number. The port of the SMTP server. This is typically port 25.
fromAddr	String. The email address you are sending the email from. Most SMTP servers require you to enter a valid email address registered on the SMTP server. You may optionally enter a userid and password if your SMTP server requires authentication.
toAddr	String. The email addresses you wish to send a message to. Separate multiple email addresses with commas.
Subject	String. The subject of the email.
text	String. The text of the email message.

Integer. Returns 0 if successful. Any other value signifies an error occurred. You can specify multiple recipients by separating the email addresses with commas.

Use this function to send email using raw SMTP rather than the MAPI interface that the ph_sendemail function uses. If an error occurs while sending using SMTP, the PowerHome system will not hang like it does when sending using MAPI.

If your SMTP server requires authentication, then supply the userid and password in the third parameter after the "From" email address. Separate the "from" email address, userid, and password with commas (do not add spaces).

If your SMTP server uses SSL or TLS, then use a negative port number. In the case of Gmail, the port number is 465 and uses SSL so you would specify a port of -465
