  Well, the mail() function is a wrapper for the UNIX/Linux sendmail program (which is called a mail transport), which is a lot easier than any other way.
  
  However, if you don't have sendmail, then the best way to do that is to write a SMTP script that will connect to an SMTP server and send the mail for you, using sockets.
  
  Hope that helps.
