I get this error:
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 C:\xampp\htdocs\personja\test\inc\utils.inc.php on line 425 as well as a series of 2 more errors, how do I change the localhost to k2.secureserver.net ? I have XAMPP, with the latest of everything. I changed PHP.ini & PHP5.ini from localhost to k2.secureserver.net, but it still says that error. Any help would be appreciated!

Silly question, but did you restart the server? I know I had a headache once setting up SMTP because I didn't restart and get the new .ini file loaded.

Its hosted by go-daddy which means I need to redirect all localhost smtp to k2.secureserver.net. Sad isn't it? I'll restart it - again. For the last time I hope.

The problem is with your server, not the script. If the problems persist phone up your host and ask for some guidance on getting it working.

Create a simple mail script. If it doesn't send this will confirm the problem is with the server.
Next thing to do is look at your php.ini file and confirm that the mail settings are correct. -------------------- |

Seal appears to have done that based on his first post...
The fact that the error is saying SMTP is pointing to localhost flags that the ini file is not loading with the new settings. @ Seal, any change after the latest restart? -------------------- |

No, is there anyway to force the ini to go in?
Is the error, I'll post the ini 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 C:\xampp\htdocs\personja\test\inc\utils.inc.php on line 425 This post has been edited by thesealportalteam: Mar 17 2008, 09:12 AM -------------------- Got spare time?

CODE [sendmail]
smtp_server=k2smtpout.secureserver.net ; smtp port (normally 25) smtp_port=25 default_domain=personja.com ; log smtp errors to error.log (defaults to same directory as sendmail.exe) ; uncomment to enable logging error_logfile=error.log ; create debug log as debug.log (defaults to same directory as sendmail.exe) ; uncomment to enable debugging ;debug_logfile=debug.log ; if your smtp server requires authentication, modify the following two lines auth_username= auth_password= ; if your smtp server uses pop3 before smtp authentication, modify the ; following three lines pop3_server= pop3_username= pop3_password= ; to force the sender to always be the following email address, uncomment and ; populate with a valid email address. this will only affect the "MAIL FROM" ; command, it won't modify the "From: " header of the message content force_sender= ; sendmail will use your hostname and your default_domain in the ehlo/helo ; smtp greeting. you can manually set the ehlo/helo name if required hostname= -------------------- Got spare time?

FIXED!!!!!
I used the PHP ini_set() to fix the problem. CODE ini_Set("smpt","k2.secureserver.net");
