Description:
------------
In [mail function] section of php.ini, windows users can just set :
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25
And linux user can just set :
sendmail_path =
options.

But, It is better for linux users to be able to set SMTP and SMTP_PORT in addition to sendmail_path.
This is very useful when php is run in chroot jail, mails can simply transfered to localhost:25 local smtp server.
I mean the linux user be able to set both SMTP and sendmail_path settings and select in php.ini which one is used by default.

That would be request #9308. Given that's been open for nine years, I think it's fair to say that we'd happily look at a patch to implement this, but that it's unlikely to get much traction otherwise.
