It's never *mandatory* to use *anything*.

The php mail() function is OK, but has its limitations.  There are other
PHP APIs such as phpmailer, which is much more flexible.

You can set up your own smtp server, but that's not a PHP problem.  You
would need to check on what's available for your server.

As for being regarded as SPAM - again, not a PHP problem.  Check some of
the email-related groups to get hints on how to get your email through
without it being considered SPAM.
