Chesso Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hi, is anyone familiar with WAMP5 or the like? for building and testing php/mysql applications locally. This is basically how I build my site, and it would save a lot of trouble if I could build and properly test emails locally and not need to upload to my web host just for it to work. I use the mail() function. If anyone knows how I can setup my WAMP5 locally to be able to test this, it would be greatly appreciated.

trq Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 You need to place a valid mail server (usually provided by your isp) in the SMTP directive of your php.ini.

Chesso Posted May 16, 2007 Author Share Posted May 16, 2007 Oh, like the mail server address etc? What would a web host use? they must have something special setup for that. I just need anything I can use to make emails work to my main gmail account to make sure there aren't any holes or problems before I put it live.
