Here is how I got hMailer to work with my WAMPServer's PHP

First setup your hmailer server.

1. Create a domain, lets call it testmail.net
2. Create an account that has no password attached to it, lets say nopwd@testmail.net
3. Create an account that is set up as a Catch-all lets say postmaster@testmail.net. Using this you dont have to create an account for every user you want to send mail to and then login as that user, all mail comes to this account.

Now add your mail server domain name to the HOSTS file

Edit c:\\windows\\system32\\drivers\\etc\\hosts and add a line like this

127.0.0.1  testmail.net

If you are running the mail server on another PC use the IP of the other PC instead of 127.0.0.1

Change the php.ini file ( use the wampmanager icon menus to make sure you are editing the correct php.ini )

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = mail.testmail.net
; http://php.net/smtp-port
; assuming you are using the standard port number, change if you used something else.
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/sendmail-from
sendmail_from = nopwd@testmail.net

Now just make sure that you also use the from address when you send mail as the hmailer will want this or it will probably reject the email.

$to = 'xyz@testmail.net';
$subject = 'Customer_Details Report';
$msg="php mail";
$headers = 'From: nopwd@testmail.net' . "\r\n"    

$result=mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers);
