you need to have an smtp server installed if you want to use localhost

Hi friend,

What do you think sendmail is? An mail MTA supporting smtp.

 

Have you tried looking at your sendmail logs?

He copied and pasted the values from phpinfo(), where it displays both the local and master values. =P  Also, is this a personal computer?  So ISPs don't allow outgoing mail directly from your computer; you need to go through their e-mail restrictions and stuff.  Contact them if you have to and find out.
