[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = me@example.com

at the time of installation of php it asks the smtp and from address.And i give as smtp=localhost and from address as me@example.com

And my php code is

PHP Code:


			
<?php

$to = "sravanik@eminosoft.com";

$subject = "Test mail";

$message = "Hello! This is a simple email message.";

You need your own smtp server to send mail from your local system. Localhost won't work.
