Enable Send Email in XAMPPHow to enable email send in XAMPP lite with Google SMTP

I use XAMPP lite 2.5 USB version, and the thing i hate about it is that i cannot test email

notification in my WordPress install. This is very crucial to test eCommerce site so i can meke sure

the system deliver email to user, or in bbPress to check user subscricribtion is working, and you

can also be creative and use it for a very simple email newsletter, etc.

I used to create a live test site just to check this. But not anymore since i found this tutorial How to

send email from XAMPP (PHP).

However the tutorial is not working, maybe it’s different XAMPP version. This is the working code

i’m using:

Edit your php.ini in “xampp\php\php.ini”

first always make backup, just in case.

And change this in line 1086:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Edit your php.ini in "xampp\php\php.ini"

Edit your sendmail.ini "xampp\sendmail\sendmail.ini"

[ mai l f uncti on]; For Wi n32 onl y.

; htt p: / / php. net / smt p

SMTP = l ocal host

; ht t p: / / php. net / smt p- port

smt p_por t = 25

; For Wi n32 onl y.

; ht t p: / / php. net / sendmai l - f rom

; sendmai l _f r om= post mast er@l ocal host
