title: sending php email with gmail xampp not working
body: <p>but whenever i submit execute the file, the email is not sent to my gmail. </p>
  
  <p>I have already changed the php.ini in xampp in which the sendmail_path does not start with the ";". </p>
  
  <p>In the sendemail.ini i have also changed the smtpp_server to smtp.gmail.com. as well as the smtp port to 587(tried 465 too). lastly i changed the auth_username and auth_password to my email and pw. but the code still does not work. </p>
  
  <p>i am using windows 8</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  mail('hello.3i@gmail.com', 'sample mail', 'sample content', 'From: freak@freakzoid.com');
