Topic: PEAR Mail installation [not sure where this goes?]

[owner]

Hello,

I am trying to install some of the PEAR mail packages but am not having much luck.

First I installed pear and have configured it.  I followed: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.checking.php

and I get bool(true) when running the test to check if pear is installed correctly.

Now when I try to use this sample php script:
 <?php
include('Mail.php');

$recipients = 'joe@example.com';

$headers['From']    = 'richard@example.com';
$headers['To']      = 'joe@example.com';
$headers['Subject'] = 'Test message';

$body = 'Test message';

$params['sendmail_path'] = '/usr/lib/sendmail';

// Create the mail object using the Mail::factory method
$mail_object =& Mail::factory('sendmail', $params);

$mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $body);
?> 

I get these errors:

Code: [Select]

Warning: Mail_smtp::include_once(Net/SMTP.php) [mail-smtp.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/************/******/testMail/Mail/smtp.php  on line 348

Warning: Mail_smtp::include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening 'Net/SMTP.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/************/******/testMail/Mail/smtp.php on line 348

Fatal error: Class 'Net_SMTP' not found in /var/www/************/******/testMail/Mail/smtp.php on line 349
If I download the pear package manually and throw the files in the same directory(the testMail directory), I get the same errors as well.  Here is a list of the pear packages it says I have installed.
