Best mailer to use for a website with PHP email forms


I have a website that someone made for me with a PHP mailer i guess in it. I just need something simple.. I just need the form to be emailed i guess to a local email address or something. I hope im explaining this right. Just a mail server that can store the email and the mail can be viewed from outlook. Then hopefully i can easily configure the php.ini which contains

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost

; For Win32 only.
;sendmail_from = me@example.com

; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
;sendmail_path =



and be set.. Any suggestions on how I can go about doing this? Thank you.

No need to play with php.ini; php mail() does all stuff for you. Read the http://in.php.net/mail for more info on mail(). Please note that php.ini need to setup only if php itself failed to lcoate path to sendmail
