My problem.... Number one is that I am very new at this! I've set up a database where users sign up for a membership. Once signed up they are allowed to create a page to post a listing or ad. Before the ad is posted I must aprove it. SO, once they post the ad I am suppose to receive an email. The emails do not work. What should I do? The advertising program I am using was free. I am asking them aswell, on how to get this to work. Any suggestions would be great! Here is the 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 W:\www\myDomain\include\misc.inc.php on line 435 Thank you people. Would phpMailer solve this problem?
