winlowdrosilen 0 Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 I'm following Script 8.10 now. I want to send an email to my Gmail address by using mail() function. But I don't know how to adjust the PHP configuration. In Appendix A, Larry mentioned we may need to adjust the php.ini file, but how? Also, I saw on some other websites that I may also need to configure the Mercury/32. Is this true? If yes, how? I'm using XAMPP on Windows 7. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Antonio Conte 426 Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Search on this forum. This is a pretty common problem. You need to add some config for the mail function to work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm using XAMPP on Windows 7. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Same problem here. I followed a couple of online tutorials and two YouTube videos but still couldn't get it working. We do actually need a proper guide for this. I'm using XAMPP on Win 7 as well. Like you, I'm trying to send from Mercury Mail (inside XAMPP) to GMail. Actually, I couldn't get it working with Thunderbird either. I moved on to the next chapter and promised myself I would revisit the mail problem later. I Quote Link to post Share on other sites
