I'm having trouble using mail() on XAMPP1.6a PHP5. I am running
Windows server 2003 64bit. I have tested that sendmail.exe -t under
DOS, and it just worked fine. I could send mail by using
;however, when I used mail() function to send simple email in my PHP script, its executed without any error messages but mail never sent. Also when I opened that mail PHP script, the DOS console is opened and closed right after. Was that console tried to displayed some error message to me?C:\xampp_path\sendmail\sendmail.exe -t < mymailfile.txt
[my mail function in C:/xampp_path/apache/bin/php.ini ]
- Code: Select all
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
;SMTP =
;smtp_port = 25
; For Win32 only.
;sendmail_from =
; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
sendmail_path = "C:/Program Files (x86)/xampp/sendmail/sendmail.exe -t"
[my sendmail.ini]
- Code: Select all
; configuration for fake sendmail
[sendmail]
; you must change mail.mydomain.com to your smtp server
;smtp_server=localhost
smtp_server= smtp.webhostmailserver.com
; the default domain for this server will be read from the registry
; this will be appended to email addresses when one isn't provided
; if you want to override the value in the registry, uncomment and modify
;default_domain=local
; log smtp errors to error.log (defaults to same directory as sendmail.exe)
; uncomment to enable logging
;error_logfile=error.log
; create debug log as debug.log (defaults to same directory as sendmail.exe)
; uncomment to enable debugging
;debug_logfile=debug.log
; if your smtp server requires authentication, modify the following two lines
auth_username=admin@mydomain.com
auth_password=mypasswd
; if your smtp server uses pop3 before smtp authentication, modify the
; following three lines
;pop3_server=
;pop3_username=
;pop3_password=
; to force the sender to always be the following email address, uncomment and
; populate with a valid email address. this will only affect the "MAIL FROM"
; command, it won't modify the "From: " header of the message content
;force_sender=me@localhost
; sendmail will use your hostname and your default_domain in the ehlo/helo
; smtp greeting. you can manually set the ehlo/helo name if required
;hostname=localhost
Did anyone experience something like this?
Thanks for your help! appreciated!
