I am using Acquia-Drupal DAMP on Win32 running it on localhost. Is it possible to receive email triggers when running from localhost? I got this error message after trying to receive an email when a new post is created.

* 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:\Documents and Settings\Ira\Sites\acquia-drupal-site\acquia-drupal\includes\mail.inc on line 193.
* Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the site admin, if the problem persists.

This is the info in my php.ini
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25

Thanks!

According to the Acquia Drupal DAMP Stack info page, the package does not include a mail server.
This means that email cannot be sent/received until you add a mail server to your system.
