The workaround mentioned above only works with IIS 5 assuming you've configured the Virtual SMTP Server to accept relays.
In IIS console, right-click SMTP Virtual Server and choose "Properties". On "Access" tab, click "Relay..." button and make sure "All except the list below" is selected.
Warning: This is just a quick fix which exposes a security risk because allowing your SMTP server to be a relay with anonymous access could make your computer susceptible to becoming a spam zombie. You should properly add your computer's IP address to the list and choose "Only the list below" instead to lock it down.

If you are sending e-mails in non latin character add charset information.
For example:
<?php
// header for Russian encoding will be: windows-1251
$header = "From: Shkodenko V. Taras p0dl0m@gmail.com"nContent-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1251\"\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit";
?>

What "Some Guy" stated is true (for my case at least).
I am running WinXP Pro, IIS5, PHP5.
To test PHP's mail function, I utilized the below code that "dev at realynospamspcweb dot nl" posted (the code that they stated worked for them without errors).
<?php
$Name = "Da Duder"; //senders name
$email = "email@adress.com"; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = "PersonWhoGetsIt@emailadress.com"; //recipient
$mail_body = "The text for the mail..."; //mail body
$subject = "Subject for reviever"; //subject
$header = "From: ". $Name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields
mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header); //mail command :)
?>
This (the above code) did not work for me.
But after utilizing "Some Guy's" tip and making the below modification, it did. Thank you "Some Guy".
<?php
$Name = "Da Duder"; //senders name
$email = "email@adress.com"; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = "PersonWhoGetsIt@emailadress.com"; //recipient
$mail_body = "The text for the mail..."; //mail body
$subject = "Subject for reviever"; //subject
$header = "From: ". $Name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'me@domain.com'); //Suggested by "Some Guy"
mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header); //mail command :)
?>
Now this code worked for me.
It might be of interest that I did not need to modify any of the default "php.ini" settings...
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

Under windows there is a bug in php/mail
See here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=28038
this results in you being unable to send 'From: Full Name <me@domain.com>'
Workaround is:
Set the following before calling the mail function:
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'me@domain.com);
