Configuring email.php

[eluser]floweringmind88[/eluser]
I want to setup the email.php to use my local mail server and use standard php mail. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

$config['email']['protocol'] = 'mail';

$config['email']['mailpath'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';

$config['email']['smtp_host'] = 'mydomain.com';

$config['email']['smtp_user'] = '';

$config['email']['smtp_pass'] = '';

$config['email']['smtp_port'] = '25';

$config['email']['mailtype'] = 'html';

$config['email']['charset'] = 'utf-8';

I figured out how to send from my local mail server:

$config['email']['protocol'] = 'smtp';

$config['email']['smtp_host'] = 'localhost';

$config['email']['smtp_user'] = '';

$config['email']['smtp_pass'] = '';

$config['email']['email_address'] = '[email protected]';

$config['email']['email_name'] = 'Localhost test';

$config['email']['smtp_port'] = '25';

$config['email']['mailtype'] = 'html';

$config['email']['charset'] = 'utf-8';
