I'm trying to send mail through PHP's Mail command. Here's what I've got;
mail($receiver, getMLText("notify_subject"), $msg);
$receiver = email taken from a mysql database field
getMLText gets the subject of the email
$msg = the message I'm sending (this works, don't worry)
I'm getting a Warning error saying
Warning: Failed to Connect in [path the php script is in] on line [# of line]
I checked my php.ini file and this is what is writen in the mail section:
SMTP=localhost ;for win32 only
sendmail_from = [my e-mail];for win32 only
;sendmail_path =;for unix only, may supply arguments as well (default is 'sendmail -t -i')
BTW, I'm worlink with WINNT4 with Apache server v. 1.3.24, php v.4.2.0 and MySQL DB v. 3.29.49
I've also tried to send an email using this form and getting the same message:
mail("[my e-mail adress]","","");
BTW, not behind a firewall
I've also seen that I need to have the "sendmail" configured correctly but I can't find anything that helps on the net... If that's my problem, could somebody here help with that please?
What could be the problem???
