I Need To Know!

Right now im using godaddy as a webhost, and when i set up both drupal, and wordpress on there, there were able to send emails, no smtp setup, nothing...

HOW! what does godaddy do!?

The ISPs they use don't block smtp like Comcast does. Or I could be wrong, also maybe a relay?

In php you can use the mail (http://nz2.php.net/function.mail) function to send email with smtp. Most hosts should allow this and you don't have to do any setup.

i ask because we will soon be switching from godaddy to in-house servers, and i was wondering how to do that?

any good how-tos?

I've never had to set this up myself, but this looks like a good simple guide for configuring PHP if that's what you're using: http://www.sitepoint.com/article/advanced-email-php/. For configuring sendmail this one might help: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/5507

I would look at this howto, as I relayed my smtp to my ISP's smtp servers.
