smtp error while installing

Posted by Rajibalu on August 3, 2009 at 4:55pm

While installing Drupal I am getting the following error.

* 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:\wamp\www\Residency\includes\mail.inc on line 193.
* Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the site administrator if the problem persists.

How to rectify the above problem?
