what is the value of SMTP in your PHP.ini. If you have a SMTP server running locally, set it to "localhost". If you donot, then set it to your ISP's SMTP.

Create a file named "php.ini" in your "c:\phpdev\www" folder and then put the below content in it:

[mail function]
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25
sendmail_from = [email protected]
