can some one please shed some lights , the application manual says that i do not need to change its source because i followd all instllation steps correctly.

thanks

you have to edit the sendmail.ini file in order to be able to send mail with a php aplication. You can find de .ini file under de folder sendmail in your xampp installation. Also you must setup you php.ini files, they are in the php folder. In the php.ini file you must find "[mail function]" and you put your address of your mail server, if you have one; or just leave it like that if it is a localhost....
