Above is complete script my error is
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\Apache2\htdocs\workspace\sendMail\mailsend.php on line 30
Failed to send Mail !

SMTP localhost
smtp_port - 25
sendmai_from admin@localhost.com[/img]

well the error is that the mail() isnâ€™t used, if i use a if statement it just goes to the else part.
