asked on php send mail and xampp
I have been using xampp for some time and sending mail from php pages has been working fine (just using the inbuilt mail php functionality)
I am using a local website on windows
I have recently upgraded to windows 10 and mail no longer sends from my computer
Can someone please suggest where I need to check

xampp supplies a mail provider that php uses; I would therefore suspect the win10 firewall is blocking that component - will check tonight if nobody else supplies a solution before then :D

I have checked the php.ini and sendmail.ini settings
These are exactly the same as they were

Re this config file:
Do I need to use : after the variable names?
ie. host: smtp.demon.co.uk
or do I just use:
host smtp.demon.co.uk

I am still unsure of the Domain
My smtp server is smtp.demon.co.uk
username is info@ticktockit.net
My smtp server is smtp.demon.co.uk
username is info@ticktockit.net

I have tried this:
-----------
host smtp.demon.co.uk
port 465
user info@ticktockit.net
password ***********
domain ticktockit.net
from info@ticktockit.net
tls
tls_starttls
tls_certcheck off
----------------
The webpage just hangs

If I try running the test.txt command, again the system just sits there - no progress

The result of the above test:
sendmail.exe: the server sent an empty reply
sendmail.exe: could not send mail (account default from C:\ProgramData\msmtprc.txt

Something else I have found:
If I do the following:
telnet localhost 888
I get a connection to my local xampp servver port
If I do:
telnet localhost 465
telnet localhost 25
There is no response
