Method 1  Preferred   - Using hMailServer   After installation  you need the following configuration to properly send mail from wampserver   1  When you first open hMailServer Administrator  you need to add a new domain  2  Click on the  Add Domain      button at the Welcome page   3  Under the domain text field  enter your computer s IP  in this case it should be 127 0 0 1  4  Click on the Save button  5  Go to Settings gt Protocols gt SMTP and select  Delivery of Email  tab 6  Enter  localhost  in the localhost name field  7  Click on the Save button    If you need to send mail using a FROM addressee of another computer  you need to allow deliveries from External to External accounts  To do that  follow these steps   1  Go to Settings gt Advanced gt IP Ranges and double click on  My Computer  which should have IP address of 127 0 0 1 2  Check the Allow Deliveries from External to External accounts checkbox  3  Save settings using Save button     However  Windows Live Hotmail has denied all emails coming from dynamic IPs  which most residential computers are using  The workaround is to use Gmail account    Note to use Gmail users    1  Go to Settings gt Protocols gt SMTP and select  Delivery of Email  tab 2  Enter  smtp gmail com  in the Remote Host name field  3  Enter  465  as the port number 4  Check  Server requires authentication  5  Enter gmail address in the Username 6  Enter gmail password in the password  7  Check  Use SSL     Note  From field doesnt function with gmail    p s  For some people it might also be needed to untick everything under require SMTP authentication in     for local      Settings Advanced IP Ranges  My Computer  for external   Settings Advanced IP Ranges  Internet      Method 2  - Using SendMail  You can use SendMail installation     Method 3  - Using different methods  Use any of these methods
