Is it possible to send a mail in PHP without any external packages or tools? If so, is there any requirement to configure the php.ini file? Its as follows: $to = $row-EMail_ID; $subject = "Reset your password"; $body = "Hi ".$row->Username.", \n\t\t\tA request to reset your password was received from you. \n\n\n"; $headers = "From: [email protected]\r\n"."X-Mailer: php/"; mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers); The error i get: 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 F:\wamp\www\pwd.php on line 20
