Dear colleagues,

My webhost has notified me that my php scripts that send mail in my public_html directory are being used by spammers to send mail.

They asked me to correct any open holes by changing to SMTP authorization instead of phpmail going forward, but I don't know the necessary scripts to do that.

Could anybody give me hand, please, with any code example?

Thank you!
