Have you searched then?

 

Anyway,

 

You need to set your specify your mail server instead of "localhost"

in php.ini (on how to do this Google is your friend)

 

or choose the easy way out and set sent mail to false

So your doing this local then? using easyphp?

 

Then you prob need to customize your php.ini

 

Dont blame me if i'm wrong, so make a backup if you change anything, i'm new at this to :)

 

Go to your easyphp folder (you prob installed it on your C: ) in that folder go to a folder called php there you must find a folder 'php'. In that folder locate 'php.ini'. Make a backup of it then go edit it (with whatever you like to, you can do it with notepad).

 

Hit ctrl+F to activate the search. If i'm not wrong, search for something like 'mail function' you'll prob see something like sendmail_from... might change 'localhost' to your mailserver.
