You need to change the SMTP
You need to change the SMTP server in your php.ini
where can i find the php.ini?
tnx, but where can i find the php.ini? and what modifications that i have to do? tnx...
This deppends on your
This deppends on your installation of PHP.
Do you use XAMP or something like that?
Else just make a search on your system after php.ini
The changes you have to make can also deppend on a few things.
So you need to find a SMTP server you can use in your location or with your IP.

this is not an issue
this is not really an issue, it just means that, because u are working on localhost, that you do not have an smtp server installed on ur pc. its not something to be worried about - when u install drupal on a live webserver (which will have an smtp server installed) you wont get an error anymore.

Need Help with SMTP Configuration V5.10
I am new to Drupal and I can't seem to get Drupal to Send mails.
I have also noticed that a lot of new comers have the same problem. I am working on a laptop and Appserv 2.5.9. I would also lke to be able to add a new user to see how my work is coming, and as you know i need to configure the mail to get the password.
I would be grateful if someone can please explain all about this topic so myself and other niños to Drupal can get it. Thanks a whole bunch.

Can you send any emails at
Can you send any emails at all from your web server using mail() ?
If not its most probably your smtp setting(server) within the php.ini file.
