    On most normal php hosting accounts, the mail function is disabled until you pay a small fee (to prevent fake details being used in the account, and prevent spam), so I doubt that you would even be able to use a php mailing script; even if you could, there are strict rules regarding spam, and you would get your account closed very quickly if you decided to use their servers for spam. On my hosting account, it was a simple $0.** fee by paypal. But if you really wanted to spam, there are much more efficient ways to do it than through php scripts.

    You need to send mail by SMTP instead of webmail. Either use an email client (like Mozilla Thunderbird), use mass mailing program, or write your own. If you use hotmail, then there is NO smtp access for normal accounts, so you can't 'legitimately' mass send emails from hotmail unless you spoof the headers. Of course, spammers never send spam from within an account, so spoofing headers is not a problem for them.

    In other words, spammers can send emails from any server and without an account (because they don't usually need a reply), but for normal users, you need to find yourself an email account that has SMTP and imap/pop enabled, so you can use a software email client to send and receive emails without using the webmail interface.

    Dude, I never said I encourage spam. I get over 5 poorly written 4** scams each day, so you can probably understand my feelings toward spam at the moment. If you want information on spam, then google for topics similar to these:

    SMTP protocol
    mail bomber
    email spoofing
    anonymous emailer

    Thanks, i downloaded the Portable Mozilla Thunderbird it fits in a pen and created an account with gmail it allows only 500 emails to be send 'legitimately' as you said but i only need *20 for now.
