| Request: | Send a blank email to php-windows+get-24930@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message | ||
My system:
Windows XP
Apache
SMTP server: MailEnable
PHP 5.0.2
Whenever I try to use the mail function, it returns me a value of "false".
My php.ini settings are:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25
Here's the function I'm using:
<?php
$r = mail("a_real_email_address@gmail.com", "my subject", "line1")
;
var_dump($r);
?>
This always returns: bool(false)
What else do I need to setup in order for this to work???
I can send a regular email through using outlook express. any ideas?
