Mail Server

Because most of my programming is done offline PHP’s mail() function doesn’t work, and I’ve never been bothered to setup anything to make it work until now.

Have a look at this…

It’s so simple and easy to do. I used Thunderbird instead of Outlook, and it works fine.

Now all your activation / signup emails can be tested offline.

  1. So this works with XAMPP? If so, you rock Peter. =D

  3. Yep, works fine, you don’t have to touch XAMPP at all, which is good. :)

  5. I wish I had known you needed a local SMTP server sooner. I’ve been using ArGoSoft for quite some time now. Granted, it’s not CURRENTLY on my PC (reformatted recently), but it was before the reformat and I also had it on my old desktop.

    It’s a very good SMTP/POP3 server. =D
