You need to change
SMTP = localhost ; for Win32 only
to
SMTP = MyMailhost.domain.edu ; for Win32 only
(MyMailHost being your mail service's server -> pop3.hotmail.com)
If you don't have that then you may need to install a mail service of
your own ...
If you need to do that research the archieves I know I've seen a load of
different free mail services and how to install (I didn't have to do
that so I'm not going to try to tell you how to do it ...)
