Hi,

I have made an email forum, but each time someone is trying to send an email to uss trou it we get

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\xampp\htdocs\sources\sendmessage.php on line 116


Using windows 2003 server x64

Thanks

You have a problem on your own computer or on your dedicated server (with another XAMPP installation)?

Okey did i explain bad or is the support bad ? :/

I make a new explination then and we will see if anyone CAN understand it...

When i had my website on my home computer (the one i use daily) i just edit the SMTP setting and wrote something with my ISPN name

But now when im renting an dedicated server from another country my mail dosent works anymore

What do i have todo to get it working ?!
