You can't install IIS on Windows 98 at all AFAIK and that also seems to be what MS say:
Cannot Install IIS 5.0 on Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT 4.0
You can install PWS from your Windows 98 disk, or you can forget about PWS and IIS and just use Apache.

There's two different types of servers that you connect to when you do your e-mail, there is the POP3 or IMAP server where your e-mail is stored, this normally requires you to login in to it so that you can see that e-mail. However, when you send an e-mail you do not use the POP3 or IMAP server, you use the SMTP server which, in the vast majority of cases for ISPs does not require authentication in the same way. If you want to send e-mail from PHP you only want to use the SMTP server and probably won't have to authenticate yourself (above and beyond being connected to your ISP's network).
Check your account settings for your e-mail, look for the SMTP server address (outgoing server). Put that in as the SMTP address in your php.ini and run a simple mail script to see if it works.

I found that my ISP's email adress is smtp.earthlink.net..
I get this error when I try to send an email
Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in c:\ftp\users\straterra\cgi-bin\mail.php on line 2
And I have these lines filled out in my php.ini
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP=smtp.earthlink.net; for Win32 only
; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from=straterra@eckclan.sytes.net; for Win32 only
I wonder..why does it say localhost when I told it to connect to earthlink's smtp server?

Hmm, are you sure you're editing the right php.ini, that's the first thing to check if you are getting an error message that doesn't correspond to your php.ini settings. Do a quick check by running:
and see where PHP thinks it's getting its config information from.
