If you're on Windows, you must use SMTP to send mail. Thus sendmail_path is ignored, because PHP does not support using sendmail to send mail on win32 (As most users won't have it installed)

Therefore you'll need to set up and correctly configure a local MTA to relay messages to wherever they need to go; this is site-specific and needs to be set right.

Talk to your network admin and ask them how to do this and what software to use. A lot of windows users seem to use the IIS SMTP server which works but is lousy at error reporting / logging (i.e. it doesn't do either).

I didn't understand that at all I'm afraid.

Apache is a web server and is NOT a MTA (mail transfer agent). If you want to use your machine as a MTA (which you usually do if you're sending mail with PHP), then you must install one of those separately.

Hi,

I don't know secureserver.net really good. But do you have to enable SMTP authentication in outlook ? If yes, then the usage of phpmailer or swift mailer can solve your problems.

The mail port should be 25 not 80. 80 is for a webserver, change your php.ini to that and it should work. To test just send an e-mail to your self.
The SMTP should be whatever you use to use you Outlook , Outlook Express or Thunderbird or whatever mail client you normally use to download your e-mail and send it with.

[XPertMailer]

If you want to use a Relay SMTP server to send the e-mail, then it is simple:

// path to smtp.php from XPM2 package
require_once 'path/smtp.php';

$mail = new SMTP;
$mail->Delivery('relay');
$mail->Relay('relay-hostname.net', 'username', 'password', 465, 'autodetect', 'tls');
$mail->From('[e-mail]');
$mail->AddTo('[e-mail]');
$mail->Text('text/plain version of the message');
$sent = $mail->Send('Subject');
echo $sent ? 'Success' : $mail->result;
