thanks. everything seems to be working when i have my server running. (http://theeightelectron.net). now im working with php doing a simple mail program to my email. i use the proper SMTP server (comcast) and i have checked all ports as to be open, but i get the following error.

"
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\wamp\www\processContact.php on line 10"

And we see on line 10

"<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$to = "the.eight.electron@gmail.com";
$from = "Website Message";
$subject = 'the subject';
$message = "Message from ". $name . "/n" . $_POST['message'];


mail($to, $from, $subject, $message);

?>"

thanks alot for help
