Hi Richard, The problem is that if I am using any open source software or
any other pre-built software then I will not be able to manage through
ini_set.
Also http://www.softstack.com/freesmtp.html which vikash mentioned works
through outlook settings.
Anyways the below will help-

You only need a local SMTP server if you want to hold and relay mail.
If you want to send mail directly to the recipients SMTP server you
can do that with standard PHP.
getmxrr() is your friend here.
You provide it with the domain of the recipient and you get back the
SMTP server(s) associated with that domain.
Now, you can send the message to THEIR smtp server ...
ini_set('SMTP', );
where is one of the servers returned from getmxrr().
No authentication required.

You can install any smtp server on your windows machine and the mail() will work with default settings.
