I'm not able to send mail from localhost. I tried to change configuration of php.ini and sendmail.ini as code of both file mentioned below.

This is my mail function from php file.

if (mail("[email protected]", "this is subject", "this is testing message", "From:[email protected]")) {
    echo 'Email sent successfully!';
} else {
    die('Failure: Email was not sent!');
}

and here is the the php.ini configuration:

SMTP=localhost
SMTP =smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port =587
sendmail_from [email protected]
sendmail_path = "\"C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t"

and Sendmail.ini code is here:

account Gmail
tls on
tls_certcheck off
host smtp.gmail.com
from [example]@gmail.com
auth on
user [example]@gmail.com
password [**********]

port 587
account default : Gmail

Are you getting any errors when you try this (is your system configured to show you errors?) – Frits May 31 '16 at 05:44
no there is no error. – Nauman Hanif May 31 '16 at 05:45
Do you have error reporting set to so you're sure to see all errors? – Niklaus May 31 '16 at 05:47
no i didnt set error report @Niklaus – Nauman Hanif May 31 '16 at 05:51
is there is anyone point out the main problem because i also used PHPmailer library for that but i m not able send mail. @Niklaus – Nauman Hanif May 31 '16 at 05:53
If you didn't before, do it now. Add error_reporting(-1); before if (mail(....)) and tell us what it says. – Niklaus May 31 '16 at 05:55
