My mail() does not work. Apache server tells me that no connection could be made. (I have: windows XP, Apache, PHP4, MySQL)I do not have a provider. I just have a bare ADSL line (which I could hire for a bargain).
1. what must I do in the ini-files? (send_mail etc.)
2. this is my small text which does not work:
$my_mail = "<my_email_address>"
mail ($my_mail, "No need for reply -- PHP test!", "hi Peter\nLine 2\n");
3. I have a XP-firewall.
As all the other programs work well (several messengers work fine: AOL, MSN) what did I do wrong, forget etc.
Can anyone help me?
with friendly greetings,
Peter
