I need help, i get the following error when i try to send an email.
Error connecting to SMTP Server.
111 : Connection refused
----
SMTP (sending mail) is very spam sensitive .. last thing you want is to be a open-relay. So an SMTP server needs to be picky on from who it accepts mail. If it refuses mail, blame it on the Server, not on the tool that is connecting to it.
----
If you are using sendmail, you need to tell it to listen to to ports other than the localhost:

----
If you are using qmail, and get this error:
"Command not implemented
Server replied: 502 unimplemented (#5.5.1)"
Change SMTP Authentication to 'None' in the config (under SMTP Settings)
----
Fedora Core 4 runs Apache under SE Linux settings, so it cannot connect to the mail system (SMTP, IMAP, sendmail).
Temporarily disable SE Linux with this: "setenforce 0" and restart Apache.
You can permanently disable SE Linux with the instructions here: http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc3/index.html#id2825880
