Oh, I think that may be the problem: it looks like your host has SMTP authentication enabled, and PHP’s mail() doesn’t support that.
So does this mean that I’m SOL or is there some sort of workaround?
I’ve found that I can do the authentication with PEAR’s mail function…but I’m assuming that would involve changing Textpattern wherever there is a call to mail…

Re: Change SMTP Settings
Yes, you’d have to change every call to the mail function to use SMTP authentication. Not just in TXP, but also in plugins that send email.
