Problem-I'm trying to run eFiction, a story/fanfiction archive script. On 
this, people self register, and they are supposed to get an e-mail with their 
password. However, I and one other attempted signing up, and neither of us got 
our password-email. After doing research, I heard I needed to make sure that my 
sendmail function was activated.

How do I make sure that my sendmail function is on and running? I read the 
documentation and checked my php.ini, but I have some doubts.

1. My php.ini doesn't seem to include everything that should be either. In 
the documentation, it shows your mail section having four parts: SMTP, SMTP 
Port, sendmail_from, sendmail_path. However, php.ini looks like this (windows 
section):

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
;sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED]

     There is a sendmail_path down below, but it is under the For Linux Only 
section. What's with that?
     Also, I have a router. Do I need to port-forward port 25 to get sendmail 
to work?
     Thanks in advance.

-Andrew
