Hi there,
I have recently installed Apache and PHP on my PC and am trying to run it as a testing server.
After creating a PHP mail() script I receive the following error in my Apache log file:
"PHP Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "smtp.localhost.com" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\\Program Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Apache2.2\\htdocs\\send.php on line 8"
I later discovered that i need a SMTP server. I replaced 'smtp.localhost.com' in my php.ini file with smtp.gmail.com but it still does not work, returning the error:
"PHP Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. p10sm177365gvf.7 in C:\\Program Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Apache2.2\\htdocs\\send.php on line 8"
Could anyone let me know how to resolve this problem?
I just want to test my PHP mail scripts on my own computer regardless of whether it is online or offline.
Thank you for your support!
