Sending mail from local server

[cal123]

Hi Guys

We have just setup our Oscommerce site on our local server for testing purposes. Everything is working fine except if we try to send mail whilst doing an order. It seems as if the mail is sent but it never arrives in our mail box. When we do this on the live site it works perfectly. Is there something we have to setup on our local server for this to work? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

More information required, eg what software.

Okay we have WINXP with Apache, php and MySQL setup on it. All the functionality of OsCommerce 2.2 MS2 is working except if I send a mail either through the order process or through the contact us functionality. The system says that the mail was sent successfully but it never arrives in our inbox. The mail setup is as follows:

 

Transport: smtp

mime: false

dns verify: false

sendmail: true

 

But it still does not work... any ideas?

In your server php.ini

 

[mail function]

; For Win32 only.

; SMTP = localhost

SMTP = YOUR OUTGOING MAIL (SMTP) SERVER OF YOUR ISP

smtp_port = 25

 

; For Win32 only.

sendmail_from = A VALID EMAIL ACCOUNT ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR ISP

 

; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").

;sendmail_path =

 

I think that is all.
