I'm getting problems with the mail() function.

ERROR:

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\wamp\www\php_sandbox\user_auth_fns.php on line 170


I'm using Windows XP prof. and WAMP5 -server

Here what I did:

1) I download sendmail.zip from http://glob.com.au/sendmail/

2) I unzip this in a folder on c:\wamp\sendmail

3) I edited  PHP.INI file

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP =
smtp_port =

; For Win32 only.
;sendmail_from =

; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
;sendmail_path = "C:\wamp\sendmail\sendmail.exe -t"

I don't mean to be rude, but what part of "For Unix only" confused you?

You need to point the "For Win32 only" settings at a mail server on Windows. The error message pretty clearly states that it's trying to connect to the server specified in those settings.
