If you do followed Yii tutorial, then you should have the site already. Then you can use contact form to test your email function.

The code in controller/SiteController.php

And find actionContact.

test.php means used as a template for different mails. For test.php, you should create a folder inside your application based on viewpath in main.php file.

Here you should create folder named with mail in app/protected/views/ and create test.php in it.




    'viewPath' => 'application.views.mail',
