I want to send emails from my Pc(Localhost) to external servers like gmail,hotmail or yahoomail.
There are option to send email using Gmail/Yahoomail SMTP settings but i do not want to use any SMTP setting because of there daily limits.
And we also do not want to buy any email/newsletter services.
We want to create it Fully Free in our PC(Localhost).
Please tell us how can do it using Xampp and any open-source softwares.
I'm using Laravel (4.2) to send emails in my application. Locally this works fine however when I upload to our internal server I get
Swift_TransportException: Connection could not be established
It's running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard and we have XAMPP v3.2.1 installed
We use a proxy but I have no idea how I can route my application through it.
Can anyone give me some suggestions please?
I want to use Mercury Mail as a mail server in a local network. I managed to set up everything and I am able to send mails from one client to another in this local network via the Mercury Mail server (part of Xampp) on Windows 7. The whole environment is set up locally, i.e. communication is only between local users and not with the outside world (internet).
What I want now: When a local user sends a mail to another local user, I want them to SMTP authenticate first. From Mercury Mail Admin Panel SMTP Server, I don't see such option. Could you point me to the documentation or guide me on how to do it? Thanks a lot.
I have a Windows 7 (32bit) pc and installed ColdFusion 10. The cfmail tag is not working. It was working on ColdFusion 8.
Mail is going to the ColdFusion10\cfusion\Mail\Undelivr folder.
(Update from comments)
In the mail log I am seeing:
"Error","scheduler-0","04/18/13","17:29:13",,"javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedExc‌​eption:
535 No SMTP server defined. Use real server address instead of
127.0.0.1 in your account. "
Looking at the error that you are receiving my guess would be that you have not defined the SMTP server for ColdFusion to use so it is attempting to route the mail through your Windows 7 pc. You can define the SMTP server settings in the ColdFusion administrator for all of your cfmail tags. (You can also define the settings in the cfmail tag itself.)
Here is a link to the docs for the mail settings under the ColdFusion administrator.
After adding the settings in the administrator be sure to check the "Verify Mail Server Connection" option. This will test the connection for you when you click the submit button. Your mail will not work until you can successfully connect to your SMTP server.
I'm trying to send a mail via python code via local SMTP server (localhost, port 25) in Windows 7 Enterprise edition. I'm obviously getting the irritating
[Errno 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
message, because I don't have any SMTP server installed. Because of Microsofts' ambigious documentation I thought that I can use the Server manager tool to install the local SMTP service, only to discover that it doesn't work on Windows 7.
I've read here in other threads that Windows 7 does not include the SMTP service anymore, so it doesn't have a local SMTP server. All threads directed the questioners to other, 3rd party SMTP services. The question is: is there any other way of configuring a local SMTP server yet? Or is it still an open issue, and I have no choice but to use a 3rd party software?
This response is a little late, but might help the next person...
No, Windows 7 does not come with an SMTP server. Supposedly Remote Server Administration tools includes an SMTP server, but according to this link, it does not work.
Some options for sending email from a Windows 7 machine are:
For development purposes, I like smtp4dev https://github.com/rnwood/smtp4dev. It is open source and emulates a SMTP server. However instead of actually sending the email, it keeps in in an app on the system tray. Great for making sure you don't accidentally SPAM your users.
If you are planning to send emails out for real, I would advise using a SMTP server with a static IP address as most spam filters dislike dynamic addresses and will block the email.
I have not used it, but if you must send email from your local Windows machine and am not worried about SPAM filters, Free SMTP Server from www.softstack.com seems pretty popular.
