I am having trouble sending mail with php

mail("email@gmail.com","Subject","helloworld");

I want to send potential contact information to an email address - however, it is not working..
I am using visual studio and vista - does that have anything to do with it?

Is there another way using php?

From: PHP: mail - Manual (Mail function descriptive text)

Note: The Windows implementation of mail() differs in many ways from the Unix implementation. First, it doesn't use a local binary for composing messages but only operates on direct sockets which means a MTA is needed listening on a network socket (which can either on the localhost or a remote machine).
Second, the custom headers like From:, Cc:, Bcc: and Date: are not interpreted by the MTA in the first place, but are parsed by PHP.
As such, the to parameter should not be an address in the form of "Something <someone@example.com>". The mail command may not parse this properly while talking with the MTA.

PHP: Runtime Configuration - Manual (SMTP configuration settings)

I would try using mail.domain.com as the SMTP setting, restart Apache, and see if that works.
