I am trying to use the php mail function but have been getting errors. I am using a localhost address to send to another localhost address. I set up www.ituk.com as a url for 127.0.0.1 in my etc/hosts file. I also set up admin@ituk.com in the etc/hosts file. I then configured my httpd-vhosts adding to parts.
| Code: | <VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin postmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot "/xampp/htdocs/"
ServerName www.ituk.com
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@ituk.com
DocumentRoot "/xampp/htdocs/project/website/admin/email/inbox/"
ServerName admin.ituk.com
</VirtualHost>

I am trying to send email using a php form but keep getting the same 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 I:\xampp\htdocs\Project\Website\pagecontent\site_text_content\mail.php on line 32
I have checked my php.ini file. port 25 is set as it smtp. So i do not know what is going wrong. THis is my first time trying to set up an email. All i am trying to do is set up an email_us form on the localhost that will allow an email to be sent to the administration folder for the site. Does anyone know what I am missing. |

Which email server do you run on your computer?
PHP can't connect to it. |
