I am working on an email sending script in plain PHP
I am curious about this PHP mail function is this function is just an email client or I am configuring it wrong?

1No its an api to your mta.. it does not fetch email. – Lawrence Cherone Mar 24 '18 at 04:14

1You need first install a `MTA` on your server, maybe `sendmail`, then php mail function will put the mail message to the `MTA` & send the mail for you. – atline Mar 24 '18 at 04:22
