I have apache 2 loaded on windows xp home with php 4.3.11 loaded. I have phpbb and it gets an error saying it cannot send the email. I really want this function to work. What should I do? Thanks!

I searched these forums and google. However, I have had no luck. Thanks for your time!

you need to have sendmail module installed to use mail() ..

Thank you. Does sendmail work for Windows? Also, how can I configure it for PHP. Thanks!

I thought that if you have PHP installed it should have mail() installed as well.

Check you mai() line

in the php it should look something like,

mail(emailTo, emailSubject,emailBody, emailHeader);

I try BB2 I could not to get to work. i only got a error. I think it do some thing with mySQL not settup right

I know it has nothing to do with the coding because I uploaded it onto my host and it works. This is for phpBB's emailer.php script. I herd it uses sendmail. But how do you install that on a Windows XP SP2 based server? Thanks!

I found out my IPS blocks port 25. However, I can use thier SMTP server. However, it requires a username and password. How can I do that via the php.ini file?

Update: I got port 25 unblocked.
