server error

[reggie_styles]

I believe I have now set up my mail server correctly or at least I thought I did, when a new user is added I get the following error:

Warning: Server Error in c:\apache\htdocs\modules\Your_Account\index.php on line 144

When I look on line 144 on the index file of your_account module it reads as follows:

mail($user_email, $subject, $message, "From: $from\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());

I don't know what needs to be edited for my mail server to send the e-mail.

I have another question concerning e-mail but I will leave that for now.

I did a search in the forums and didn't find this particular error.

Any suggestions?

from manual
The Windows implementation of mail() differs in many ways from the Unix implementation. First, it doesn't use a local binary for composing messages but only operates on direct sockets which means a MTA is needed listening on a network socket (which can either on the localhost or a remote machine). Second, the custom headers like From:, Cc:, Bcc: and Date: are not interpreted by the MTA in the first place, but are parsed by PHP. PHP < 4.3 only supported the Cc: header element (and was case-sensitive). PHP >= 4.3 supports all the mentioned header elements and is no longer case-sensitive.

Got MTA set?

Is the MTA setting within the mail server?

Check the setting in php.ini:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost

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