In order for PHP to send emails with mail() you need to tell PHP your SMTP email server address/port in the php.ini. However the mail() function does not support SMTP servers which require authentication. If your SMTP server does requires authentication then look into using PHPMailer instead.

php.ini =>

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
;SMTP = localhost
;SMTP = smtp.gmail.com
; http://php.net/smtp-port
;smtp_port = 25
;smtp_port = 587

; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/sendmail-from
;sendmail_from = you@yourdomain
;sendmail_from = ssmtpmailtesting@gmail.com
; For Unix only.  You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
; http://php.net/sendmail-path
;sendmail_path =
sendmail_path = "C:\wamp\bin\sendmail\sendmail.exe -t"

sendmail.ini =>

; configuration for fake sendmail

; if this file doesn't exist, sendmail.exe will look for the settings in
; the registry, under HKLM\Software\Sendmail

[sendmail]

; you must change mail.mydomain.com to your smtp server,
; or to IIS's "pickup" directory.  (generally C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Pickup)
; emails delivered via IIS's pickup directory cause sendmail to
; run quicker, but you won't get error messages back to the calling
; application.

smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
;smtp_server=mail.mydomain.com
;smtp_server=localhost
; smtp port (normally 25)

smtp_port=587
;smtp_port=25

; SMTPS (SSL) support
;   auto = use SSL for port 465, otherwise try to use TLS
;   ssl  = alway use SSL
;   tls  = always use TLS
;   none = never try to use SSL

smtp_ssl=auto
;smtp_ssl=none

; the default domain for this server will be read from the registry
; this will be appended to email addresses when one isn't provided
; if you want to override the value in the registry, uncomment and modify

default_domain=localhost

; log smtp errors to error.log (defaults to same directory as sendmail.exe)
; uncomment to enable logging

error_logfile=error.log

; create debug log as debug.log (defaults to same directory as sendmail.exe)
; uncomment to enable debugging

;debug_logfile=debug.log

; if your smtp server requires authentication, modify the following two lines

;auth_username=
;auth_password=

auth_username=ssmtpmailtesting@gmail.com
auth_password=[mypassword]

; if your smtp server uses pop3 before smtp authentication, modify the
; following three lines.  do not enable unless it is required.

pop3_server=
pop3_username=
pop3_password=

; force the sender to always be the following email address
; this will only affect the "MAIL FROM" command, it won't modify
; the "From: " header of the message content

force_sender=ssmtpmailtesting@gmail.com

; force the sender to always be the following email address
; this will only affect the "RCTP TO" command, it won't modify
; the "To: " header of the message content

force_recipient=

; sendmail will use your hostname and your default_domain in the ehlo/helo
; smtp greeting.  you can manually set the ehlo/helo name if required

hostname=localhost

php code =>

$message = "Line 1\r\nLine 2\r\nLine 3";

// In case any of our lines are larger than 70 characters, we should use wordwrap()
$message = wordwrap($message, 70, "\r\n");

// Send
mail('[myemail]@yahoo.com', 'My Subject', $message);

It is not sending email to [myemail@yahoo.com]

 

Where is the error/mistake ? What should i do in configuration?

 

Thanks
