PHP Mail functioning ...... !
Posted: Wed Mar 24, 2010 3:42 am
Hi All,
I am very new to this php world and learning on my own. I am in process of implementing a Simple Contact form but could not get the mail functioning running.
I am Win XP (Home Edition) and managed to install PHP 5.2 and Apache and a SMTP server
My question is Do I need to I need to provide any username /passwords in SMTP FOR LOCAL TESTING PURPOSE
Or in other words, do I need to do any level of authentication in SMTP FOR LOCALHOST
Now, when trying to submit the form, there is mail function warning regarding Authentication required
Can I just bypass this by any means.
Also, can you please give some pre-requisites that I need to ensure to get my mail functioning working
Help would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Kapgupta
