Thanks for sharing this Paul. I can now send the activation email in Ch 16 Example - User Registration using the mail function (on localhost). Previously, I was using my ISP's SMTP server to send emails but I recently switched to another ISP and couldn't use the new SMTP server becuase it requires authentication.
A section on how to configure the Mercury/32 mail server in future editions of the book would be great.
