Email handler using phpdev/apache

[Chris_Evans]

Hi - I'm using the following script to send an email but I keep getting the error message below:

mail ($mailTo, $msgSubject, $msgBody, $xHeaders);

Error message:
Warning: Failed to connect to mailserver, verify your "SMTP" setting in php.ini in c:\phpdev\www\ptweb\admin\mailscript.php on line 62

Any ideas? Thanks.

Go into PHP.ini and see what SMTP settings have been set.

Copy and post the SMTP/mail settings here and i can help.

Hi - thanks:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = mail.mydomain.com

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = [email][e-mail][/email]

Mine looks like this:

[mail function]
SMTP = smtp.ntlworld.com ;for win32 only
sendmail_from = [e-mail] ;for win32 only
;sendmail_path = ;for unix only, may supply arguments as well (default is 'sendmail -t -i')

Ok - thanks, I'll try that. 🙂
