Got the Security Certificate installed. Now I need to enable PHP mail. I have a membership program that uses it to send emails. Can you help get PHP mail working?

Hi Larry

Windows does not have a Mail Server installed by default, this is why the PHP `mail()` function does not actually send mail.

You either have to setup a mail server, or probably your best option is to use something like phpMailer or swiftmail. Both are freely available and come with their own user manual
