Oh the pain! (ha!)

So, I am with Brinkster for hosting, helpful? Not...

I am a touch confused on the whole email thing. Like a lot of others I get "Could not send" so, I searched the forums and found the emailtest.php test - I run it and get this...

"Success: www.gtvone.com
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: "sendmail_from" not set in php.ini or custom "From:" header missing in C:\sites\single21\simonpollock\webroot\photos\emailtest.php on line 8
FAIL"

So, I speak to Brinkster who give me a "this is how to setup your website to use our php mailer" (below)

<?
require("c:\php\includes\class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = "mymail.brinkster.com";
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "you@domain.com";
$mail->Password = "EmailPassword";
$mail->From = "you@domain.com";
$mail->FromName = "Your Name";
$mail->AddReplyTo("you@domain.com");
$mail->AddAddress("user@domain.com");
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "Test message sent using the PHPMailer component";
$mail->Body = "This is a test message.";
$mail->Send();
?>

Yep - understand all this (sort of! after coffee) I just don't know how to combine the two together - imagevuex install and brinksters email spec.

I'd LOVE any help!!..

And (can I slip this in?) the text on my page in orange ( www.gtvone.com ) like at the top of my images "photos 1/3" how do I change his color...

Sorry - I realise you have better things to do, but any help from anyone appreciated!
