I have a fresh install of PHP on a Win2k server. It is installed along with
MySQL to allow me to run and XMB message base on my website.
Everything works great except for the fact that I never receive any email
notification when someone replies to a message I (or anyone else) posts. I
think the problem is that I don't have the email part of PHP configured
correctly.
I used the php.ini-recommended file to set it up. In the mail section it
says:
SMTP=localhost
There is a mail server on the local host.
Do I have to install a sendmail app to get this working correctly?
Nothing shows up in the event logs.
One more question, when I make a change to that ini file, do I have to
reboot the machine or just restart IIS?
