Hi to all,
While trying to develop my own web blog, I want my application to be able to send emails to users that have previously posted a comment.
I read the Email class of CI and it is pretty straightforward but I am stuck of how to connect CI with an SMTP server on Windows 7.
a word about my programming environment:
on Windows 7 I am running: PHP, CI, Apachie, Mysql
As I saw; I have to create an email configuration file. The most important option there is
mailpath what's that? If I understood right; it's the path where your SMTP server should run plus of course the name of your server. Sendmail must be a SMTP server running on GNU/LINUX right ??
In my case I downloaded and I installed the hmailserver which is a free email server (supporting SMTP protocol). I installed it as a service on Windows 7.
Now I am stuck
and I would appreciate your help & feedback. Can CI's Email class work/cooperate with any SMTP server (in my case hmailserver)??? what email server do you use under windows 7 o.s?
Thanks in advance
