Gralf Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone has ever succeeded sending email through Wamp. I have read tons of blogs/forums but I was not able to send emails. I have downloaded third-party softwares such as sendmail http://glob.com.au/sendmail/ but nothing happened. Any suggestions will be much appreciated. Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HartleySan Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I've never had much luck (I've had some luck) with sending emails from localhost on XAMPP. The following might be worth a try: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4652566/php-mail-setup-in-xampp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Honestly, I stopped bothering with it some time ago. Too much effort to set up, each OS upgrade breaks it (when using OS X's built-in tools), and I don't really need to send emails from my desktop as a server with any regularity. Just my perspective on this... If you only have a desktop computer to use and test on (and no domain), I guess it'd be something worth pursuing.

HartleySan Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I agree with Larry here. I can't imagine any instances where I'd want to send emails but don't already have a domain and web server set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gralf Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Hi guys, Thank for the info and suggestions. I am going to try the link to set that up on xamp otherwise I will just use a domain. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
