Hi there everyone,
Is there any e-mail server, can be even simplest, smallest one, that can be used in XAMPP Lite?
I don't like the idea of moving from well know lite version to "big" one only to be able to use e-mail sending functions. And even more - I have done it at my work and had so many problems configuring or using included Mercury server that I would do this again (move Lite -> Full) at home only if it would last think I can do.
I'm using XAMPP Lite 1.7.3 on Windows as my development (localhost) environment. Page I'm developing will finally be hosted on Linux in production version and as far as I know there are no such problems there as nearly every Linux distro is preconfigured so Apache (and XAMPP even Lite version) are ready to send e-mails out-of-the box.
I saw a copy of sendmail insilde my Windows Lite 1.7.3 version of XAMPP and thought that it will also be able to send e-mail. But either it is not configured properly or I'm doing something wrong, because I get annoying "mail() function failed" and info to check if my e-mail server is properly configured. And I am a complete newbie (or even dumb) in the area of e-mail servers and sending therefore I have no bloody idea what to do to have that Mercury at work or that sendmail at home to work!
Thanks in advance for any help or idea here,
Trejder
