Unable to complete an order due to SMTP errors

[cipineda]

I just recently installed the oscommerce application (Version 2.2-MS2) on windows XP SP2 and Apache 2.0.55 and PHP 5.1.2.

 

When I try to create an order I get to the point of entering the Credit Card info, then I click on continue verify the shipping information and when I click on continue I get the following screen error:

__________________________________________________________________

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 501 unacceptable mail address in E:\ApacheGroup\Apache2\htdocs\catalog\includes\classes\email.php on line 520

any help or direction is greatly appreciated

Hello Dudacao,

 

I already have a functioning mail server and would like to use it if possible.

 

is OS commerce unable to work with SMTP?

 

P.S. there is a fuction within the Administration tool that allows to send emails to the registered customers and that works fine!
