Hi

So what’s your actionContact’s code looking now?

3

look like this

/**

 * Displays the contact page


 */


public function actionContact()


{


	$model=new ContactForm;


	if(isset($_POST['ContactForm']))


	{


		$model->attributes=$_POST['ContactForm'];


		if($model->validate())


		{


			$headers="From: {$model->email}\r\nReply-To: {$model->email}";


			mail(Yii::app()->params['adminEmail'],$model->subject,$model->body,$headers);


			Yii::app()->user->setFlash('contact','Thank you for contacting us. We will respond to you as soon as possible.');


			$this->refresh();


		}


	}


	$this->render('contact',array('model'=>$model));


}

Just check your server support mail functionality…

and

print each and every parameters passed in mail function as they are set well…

Change in the config/main the param adminEmail

nope

did that but still get this error massage

mail() [<a href=‘function.mail’>function.mail</a>]: Failed to connect to mailserver at &quot;localhost&quot; port 25, verify your &quot;SMTP&quot; and &quot;smtp_port&quot; setting in php.ini or use ini_set()

7

That means that you don’t have the mailserver properly configured in your machine, is not related with yii

do u know how to do that pls?

It depends on your system, you have to install a mail server.

OK

SO I HAVE WIN 7

WHICH ONE IS THE BEST FOR THIS DO YOU THINK?

11

u may upload this to ur server…and check thats simple.

12

I am not an expert of windows.

Take a look at google.

In any case, this is not a Yii problem, but a server configuration one.

I suggest that you use Mailchimp Mandrill. It will make your infrastructure simpler.

It is free if you only need a low amount of monthly email sending.
