What if my host doesn't have SMTP?

My host doesn't have SMTP for the script to use. Is there another way to send registration e-mails and ecards? Is there a third party script that I could use? In the past I have used bnbforms with socket, and that usually works.

Thanks for your time,
Cassie

if you used bnbforms, you used sendmail (which is default on most Lunix hosts). Just leave the settings for SMTP blank (as suggested in the docs), then sendmail will be used.
If you have neither sendmail nor SMTP, you will have to ask your webhsot for support: this is a question of server setup - not something the coppermine community can fix for you.
