    Hi

    I run windows xppro, apache as a local server on my laptop, along with php and mysql.

    I am developing a site and I want to be able to send email from my local host when testing. Is this possible?

    Have tried searching google but I don't really know where to start.

    thanks

    E

    You need to be running a mail server, and do it within your web application you can use the mail function of php ;)
