I have XAMPP ver 1.8.2-2 set up on a win xp home sp3 system. All is operating fine except for Mercury Mail not sending php forms.
I have MercuryC smtp relay client set up to send to my Go Daddy mail server. Mercury Test emails to this server are working fine - there seems to be no problem with Mercury itself. It is listening on all the right ports and doing its job.
The problem is with php email scripts sent from apache web pages. They just will not connect to MercuryC smpt and be sent to the Go Daddy Server. I have tested these email scripts in my website on Go Daddy and the both work fine. When I check the Mercury Mail logs, they show zero activity when an email form is sent.
Apart from email scripts, I am trying to set up a simple email link to this remote server to run xcart, which requires an email link to their web site for verification and reporting purposes.
Am new at this - there is something simple that I am missing.
Thanks all.
