i have apache, mysql and PHP setup on my pc for development purposes and i
can run the scripts fine - except when it comes to the mail() funtion
what is the easiest way to set it up so i can send email's using the
mail() funtion
at the moment i upload it to my donain and test it but that is a pain
Thanks in advance
Forgive me, but this depends on what you mean by easy, there are a couple
solutions, that allow you to test easily, but sometimes, not so easy to set
up.
I recomend, getting another machine, put redhat on it, and keep it next to
your desktop.
or you can use something like virtual pc, and run a virtual machine on your
desktop.
with either one, you can map your a pc drive, say L: to the linux box, this
way you do not even have to mess with ftp or anything.
