HI x

I also new to PHP but by friends said me

instead of using localhost, use your ISP's smtp adress in php.ini

[dr4g]

The issue is definetley connecting to the mailserver.

I agree trying a public SMTP server.
One i know of is: smtp.blueyonder.co.uk (Port: 25. SSL: No)

Let us know how u get on.

Cheers
