Hi,
I have WAMP2.0 installed on a Windows XP Pro SP3 system.

I want to test the email functionality from my localhost.

I have the username, password, host and port number of the mail service provided to my account, by hostgator.

Can you help me please ?

Thanks

When you installed wamp - you should have filled in those details

Otherwise left click wamp>php> php.ini

And fill in your mail details onto the section near the end of the file

Search for "mail" to find the section

Save and restart wamp

Now you can use php's mail function

Wamp does not come w/ mail, so recommend you join some other coding forums for help on mail. Thanks winking smiley
