I cant use PHPmail to send, so i set it to use my SMTP host.
I put it in, and when i try and register a new user, on submission i get this error:
Invalid STMP return code: 553 sorry, that domain isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)

This is an SMTP error, meaning that you are trying to send an email from a domain not supported by your mail server or it could be that your mail server has a restriction on the domains you can send email to.
Bottom line, this is NOT a FUDforum error, but rather a STMP configuration issue.

Hello,
the problem u describe has definetly nothing to do with FUD itself. The remote server simply refuses to accept mails from ur server, because its address range mismatches the access control list. This is the case when u use internet provider specific accounts. The only workaround is to use a different account which isn't bound to a specific service.
bye

The error you are seeing is generated by PHP's mail() function. It also appears to encounter an error but does not know what the error is.
In your phpinfo() the SMTP server is specified as 'localhost', which is what PHP's mail() will try to use when sending emails. I am guessing you've tried to use your home(?) smtp server, which declined to send the email because your domain www.hellasmirc.com (?) is not listed as local.

What you need to do is contact your hosting provider and ask them why you cannot use PHP's mail() function to send email. This is clearly a problem they should solve for you. If they do not, you need to find an SMTP server that will allow you to send email.

It is a windows box, it's mailing system works based on SMTP rather then sendmail, so compile options don't really matter. Plus there is a >80% change they are using pre-compiled binaries.
