Mail Function

[IvanIvan]

Hi,

I am having trouble with installing pear and net_smtp modules on my xamph I run on mac, I should open terminal and run command, but i don't know which command, I need these modules to send mails from localhost.

We also dont know the command, which you *should* run. How can we??

Anyway, sending Emails from a private PC (localhost) is not only extremely difficult as you need to install and configure a full featured SMTP server (what is really difficult), you also will face the problem that MOST Email servers (like gmx etc.) will block your emails coming from private IPs, as they fear SPAM emails, which mostly are coming from private servers.

If you really need to send emails to customers, you should go for a professional webhoster including email support. Xampp is not suited for email support.
