Php and Microsoft Exchange Server Issue

Post by thomas777neo »

Hi All

Have an intranet site running that currently uses the php mailer class. It was working until some bright spark in management decided to change the infrastructure. So there is no SMTP available, which is why my current script does not work.

I would now need to authenticate to the new exchange server and send the email through there.

I did have a look at most of the posts in the forum, but did not find any answers.

A point in the right direction would be much appreciated.

What kind of authentication?
Doesn't exchange use (e)smtp as well?

I'm not sure. Have not dealt with exchange server at all, our infrastructure guy said that smtp will no longer be available.

Are there any other methods that exchange server could use?

I am going to go and have a look at exchange server on the web to get a better idea about it.

My logical guess is that it uses a different port? And a different communication method other than smtp.

I think that I will have to check these things out first to narrow the problem.

Thanks for the reply, will post again if I get stuck
