emailing from a localhost

He city_coder,

Since you didn't ask anymore i assume everything is working now? I hope you weren't offended by my last post.

I do believe you are pointing the finger of blame in the wrong direction on this one... The reason you are not able to send an email via "localhost" is not because of xampp. I use it all the time, you must first contact your ISP and get the SMTP settings from them. You'll need POP3 settings from your server you host through, and SMTP settings from your ISP as they almost always have their own settings that they never bother telling anyone about.
