mail() + localhost

PHP'ers, I am sure this would have been asked a zillion times but I take this as my turn to get some help. I hate to ask such rhetorical questions but quite couldn't understand how to tweak this. All I am trying to do is send a mail from my localhost to my Gmail ID. I read stuff about how the SMTP port should be accessible; should be open et al. My set-up is very simple: 1. Using Easy PHP. 2. Windows XP Also, when the comment says that you need to 'configure' your php.ini, which .ini should I modify? The reason being, I see that file in two locations, apparently. (i) C:\Program Files\EasyPHP 3.0\apache (ii) C:\Program Files\EasyPHP 3.0\conf_files *My php.ini (will remove the semi-colon)* * * ; For Win32 only. ;SMTP = localhost ;smtp_port = 25 ; For Win32 only. ;sendmail_from = me@example.com *My code: * * * * <?php * $from= "shreyasbr@gmail.com"; $to ="shreyasbr@gmail.com"; $subject = "PHP Testing"; $message = "Test Me"; mail ($to,$subject,$message,'From:'.$from); ?> * * * Regards, *Shreyas Agasthya
