Configuring PHP sendmail

Hi all, I have my own Windows 2003 Server with IIS 6 (no mail server installed on it). In order to practice my skills on PHP, I installed PHP 5.2.11 on my server, everything is fine except sendmail operation. I tried to configure PHP.ini for sending mails through smtp.gmail.com. The changes I made in PHP.ini is: [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP = ssl://smtp.gmail.com smtp_port = 465 When I try to run a simple mailer script, it genereates the following error: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in D:\Web Sites\mytestsite\mail.php on line 6 The weird thing is, although I changed it, the script still tries to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25. Does somebody have any idea about this? -- Tamer Uçar tameru@gmail.com
