I found the solution

Although its not a 100% solution but its working .

Just add your mail server address in /etc/hosts

HTML Code:
12.115.40.19       amit.com
then check you are able to connect to the mail sever @smtp port (25)

PHP Code:
bash-3.00# telnet amit.com 25
Trying 12.115.40.19 ...
Connected to amit.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mumrel002.emea.amit-intra.net ESMTP generic mail handler
quit
221 2.0.0 mumrel002
.emea.amit-intra.net closing connection 
Then if everything is ok you can send the mail using this simple script from your machine. This is used by me on solaris 10 machine , you can adapt it to any other OS.

PHP Code:
#!/bin/ksh
auser=` who am i | awk '{print $1}'`
hname=`hostname`
( echo 
open amit.com 25
  
echo "HELO nsn.com"
  
echo "MAIL FROM:<$auser@$hname>"
  
echo "RCPT TO:<amit.ranjan.sahu@amit.com>"
  
echo "RCPT TO:<amit@amit.com>"
  
echo "DATA"
  
echo "what ever you want to send"
  
echo "."
  
echo "quit"    ) | telnet
