I installed PEAR on my server and the Mail package that came with it.
In the doc on Mediawiki's site it is written as:
$wgSMTP = array(
'host' => "localhost",
'IDHost' => "domain for MessageID",
'port' => 25,
'auth' => false,
'username' => "my_user_name",
'password' => "my_password"
);
And you wrote it as:
$wgSMTP = array {
"host" => 'myMailServer',
"IDHost" => 'mycompany.com',
"port" => "25",
"auth" => false
};
Which one is right? Or are both valid?
This is running on Windows 2003, IIS 6 and PHP 5.0.5.
I tried and still haven't received an email.
Thanks!
Simon

My setup is as follows:
1) Yes you do need the PEAR thing. I'm running Gentoo so it was a simple
"emerge PEAR-Net_SMTP", and everything just dropped into the right
place.
2) My $wgSMTP is as follows:
$wgSMTP = array {
"host" => 'myMailServer',
"IDHost" => 'mycompany.com',
"port" => "25",
"auth" => false
};
In my situation I have a Linux machine running within a Windows network.
The mail server is a Microsoft mail server, myMailServer - the names
have been changed to protect the innocent, so I just pointed wgSMTP at
it. I don't need to log in to send email hence "auth" is false. If you
do need to log in then you have to provide a user name and password.
3) That's it.

Andrew Lowe

Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Email setup
Hi,
I'm trying to setup Wiki 1.6.X to use email notification.
In my LocalSettings file:
$wgEnableEmail = true;
$wgEnableUserEmail = true;
$wgEmergencyContact = "wiki(a)castortech.com".com";
$wgPasswordSender = "wiki(a)castortech.com".com";
$wgSMTP is giving me problems.
I checked:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:%24wgSMTP but
I'm not sure how to set it up.
Do I need that PEAR thing?
I use an external SMTP server with my backup app and I only
had to tell it the name and port of the server.
Do I only need host and port or everything? And Must I keep
the "" where they are?
$wgSMTP = array(
'host' => "localhost",
'IDHost' => "domain for MessageID",
'port' => 25,
'auth' => false,
'username' => "my_user_name",
'password' => "my_password"
);
Thanks!
Simon
