I get this:
Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port
25,
verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use
ini_set().
I tried by changing the php.ini and it does not work.
I hope you can help me
Request: This is the third time I am posting this query to PHP Bugs,

Hi,
I am also having the same problem with this. I am using Mac OS X, and
it doesn't seem to be sending.
Script:
<?php
if(!mail($_POST['email'],"blabla","$text_body")){
echo("Unable to send verification email.");
}else{
echo("Sent verification email.");
}
?>
Mail seems to always return true.

$headers = "From: ".$from;
// Set the name of the server for mail processing. This should
be
handled at the server level but the following
// statement allows dynamic setting of the SMPT server for
testing
purposes.
ini_set("SMTP","mail.sunet.com.au");
// Attempt to send the mail message.
//$db_result = mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
}

I have this same problem.
I have Windows Server 2003 SP2 IIS 6. PHP6-dev (also same problem with
5.4)
Port 25 is open and I can telnet to the server from my home machine
completely outside the network and manually send an email. So I know
that SMTP is not the problem and relaying is not a problem.
Here's my script:
<?php
$success = mail("m...@address.tld", "subject", "body", "From: My Name
<m...@address.tld>");
echo ($success);
if ($success)
{
echo (" success!");
}
else
{
echo (" problem...");
}
?>
When I run this test script I see:
1 success!
However I never get an email. I have php.ini set to log errors (have
also tried display errors) and there is never any errors logged or
displayed.
php.ini SMTP section:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25
; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = m...@address.tld
phpinfo() shows all of this information properly (only after I moved
the .ini file into the PHP install directory.
I have PHPRC environment variable set to PHP install directory and have
added same directory to my PATH env var.
Mail was successfully being sent until another issue caused me to
uninstall and reinstall the SMTP Service portion of IIS.
I see no solutions or cause to this problem in this thread. Any new
news? Original issue was posted 6 years ago... I can't believe this is
still cropping up for people.
