Hello I would like to say thank you for any help you might give me.

I'm new to Apache / PHP and MySQL
I have all them up and running propertly I think.
I want to make a PHP online game and I need to set up an email server so I can have and authincation system. When the player creates an account I want the computer to email the player a link the have to click on to make there account active.

I have a Comcast 8mbits broadband connection
My server is running at http://192.168.1.105
My PHPinfo file is http://192.168.1.105/phpinfo.php
My FormMail File http://192.168.1.105/formmail.php

I have the PHP.inf file email stuff set up smtp.comcast.net port 25
I see nowhere in the php info file where to put in my username and password for the smtp server.

but last time I tried to send email I accedently spammed my smtp server and they put a port 25 block on my modem they thought someone was using my account to spam mail people. I finally gotten the block off my modem and would like to try to set it up again but im a little afraid to try again because of what happened last time.

This is the script Im using:

<?php

// Add as many Names/ Departments -- e-mail addresses as you want here
$eMail[] = array( 'Information', 'richard.tester@gmail.com' );
$eMail[] = array( 'Tech Support', 'richard.tester@gmail.com' );

// CC sender?
$ccSender = True;

//  Handle older versions of PHP
if( ! isset( $_GET ) )  $_GET = &$HTTP_GET_VARS;
if( ! isset( $_POST ) )  $_POST = &$HTTP_POST_VARS;
if( ! isset( $_SERVER ) ) $_SERVER = &$HTTP_SERVER_VARS;

?>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Mail Me!</TITLE>
<?php
  if( ! isset( $_POST["EMail"] ) ) {
?>

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin

TLD.  1 means check it, 0 means don't. */

different pieces that are easy to analyze. */

If your going to mail do not skimp... Do it the right way. I would suggest robo mail and a couple of good servers which I can recommend as well.
