Dear all,
I'm currently using Drupal 6 to develop websites, here is the problem I don't know how to solve:

# warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 553 5.5.4 ... Real domain name required for sender address in C:\apache2triad\htdocs\drupal\includes\mail.inc on line 193.
# Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the site administrator if the problem persists.

Anyone knows what's solution for this? Really appreciate if you could help!

Thanks,
Ning

Your problem has nothing to do with Mail API. Mail API is used to retrieve mail from storage like IMAP. Your inability to send mail has to do with your webserver/mail server configuration. In this case your Drupal instance isn't configured with the right outbound email.

Thanks, I put valid email address, the warning msg errors whenever the function of sending system email is triggered, do I have to change the mail.inc coding?or any setting in my windows?
