Hi,

im trying to send a form in php to an email address...i keep getting this error. Im running a localhost server...

Warning: 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 c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\testing\mail3.php on line 10

The error message says that there is problem with your SMTP settings specified in the PHP.ini file... Did you look it up??? What does it say around the SMTP setting area???
