OK, here's what has been done:
I contacted X-Istence because I had difficulties setting up qmail, well it was setup, but it didn't work. I spoke with him on MSNM and it turned out that somehow qmail sent out the mail with as from:anonymous@server1.thuisnet.lan, the Wanadoo mailserver freaked out and said server1.thuisnet.lan is not a valid domain. Logical, since that is from my internal network. In the end I let qmail think that I was part of the msn.com domain, where e-mails would be sent out as anonymous@msn.com. Since MSN.com is a valid domain, it worked. But now the reply-to address was wrong, so I added a header in the PHP mail() function to send out mails from:glaanieboy@msn.com. I am still not sure what happened, I think it all has to do with the fact that Wanadoo (ISP) has blocked port 25, so I can't make my own smtpserver, instead I have to route it to smtp.wanadoo.nl. I'll play with this when I come back from school, see if I can find something.
