Have you ever been frustrating, why e-mail is not going from the localhost while using XAMPP or WAMP or any other PHP servers in windows environment? well in that situation i think i can help you.In this article i am going to tell you how to send e-mail from localhost in PHP . 1) Open the “ php . ini “. You should know where it is located because it depends upon the particular server you’re running. 2) Search for the attribute called “ SMTP ” in the php . ini file.Generally you can find the line “ SMTP= localhost “. change the localhost to the smtp server name of your ISP . And, there is another attribute called “ smtp_port ” which should be set to 25 .I’ve set the following values in my php . ini file. SMTP = smtp.wlink.com.np smtp_port = 25 3) Restart the apache server so that PHP modules and attributes will be reloaded. 4) Now try to send the mail using the mail() function , mail(“you@yourdomain.com”,”test subject”,”test body”
