Not Sending email from localhost

Posted by myengg on January 2, 2013 at 10:32am

I have successfully installed Drupal 7
But no emails send either through contact form or during creating new user account

The contact form is not sending email the message to the contact form recipients, but a message is displayed saying 'Your message has been sent'.

The create new account form also does not send email notification but a message is displayed saying "Thank you for applying for an account. Your account is currently pending approval by the site administrator.In the meantime, a welcome message with further instructions has been sent to your e-mail address."

No, I don't have problems with spam folders and that's not what's happening here. I have tested with several different email addresses. What is the problem now?
Please help

The module has written in its README:

REQUIREMENTS
------------
* Access to an SMTP server

So I have to have working SMTP server before I use this module, it doesn't help me to install it. Do I understand it correctly?
