Hi

Posting this here because you guys will know.

Before I buy hosting here I want to know that Bluehost meets my needs.

I have a script that requires the usual php / mysql / cron / email aliases .. etc. but it also requires:

wget enabled and php mail() enabled to send mail to ALL email address rather then only email addresses on my domain.


Previous host fell short on those last two requirements so I need to move hosts after just being there a few days.

Thanks in advance
Tom

as i know, all the requirement is here.
Official answer... you can always get from support.

the sendmail path will be available at cpanel.

Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail

php mail() enabled to send mail to ALL email address rather then only email addresses on my domain.


All of the requirements listed are covered, the only one I am unsure of is sending to any email address rather than the domain only, but a workaround if you are only sending to one account is to use the email forwarding option in cPanel. Basically set your code to email to a local domain, then use the email forwarder to forward from that email address to the one you need.
