Anyway, you can use your FAI smtp server to do some testing and send mails while working in local.

Under XP:
1. Edit php.ini
2. find the line
SMTP = localhost
And replace localhost by your FAI smtp server.
for example:
SMTP = smtp.yourfai.com


3. When i do that, i also uncomment the following line :
;sendmail_from = me@example.com
And i put my real e-mail adress in it
for example:
sendmail_from = myrealemail@myfai.com

It works for local testing. once my testing are over, I switch back to the originals php settings.

Hope it can help.

Hope it works for you since most mail provider don't allow you to use their mail server in order to prevent spammers

Yes i know this.. but i think it would be nice to have it as a plugin, since i really like the new WAMP that you can install any php / apache version.. But i think it would also be nice if it was possible to install an optional SMTP server like XAMPP has MercuryMail.

You might want to make that request to Rom, wamp's developer

In my own opinion, I like it this way so I can install any mail server that I like instead struggle to figure out how to uninstall original mail server in order to install own mail server
