Look for the lines below in your php.ini, then next to that line you set your smtp server and port.

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.

You can do one of these 3

1. Run an SMTP server on your local machine
2. Change the host setting of your SMTP configuration inside php.ini
3. Dynamically set it with ini_set() e.g. ini_set("SMTP","some.mailserver.com");

try mo if you have valid entry for the SMPT server/address.

If you can't use or don't understand how to use the sendmail program from linux, you can use a PEAR object to send mail.

<?php
include("Mail.php");

$recipients = "mailto@example.com";

$headers["From"] = "mailfrom@example.com";
$headers["To"] = "mailto@example.com";
$headers["Subject"] = "Test message";

$body = "TEST MESSAGE!!!";

$params["host"] = "example.com";
$params["port"] = "25";
$params["auth"] = true;
$params["username"] = "user";
$params["password"] = "password";

// Create the mail object using the Mail::factory method
$mail_object =& Mail::factory("smtp", $params);

$mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $body);
?>

In my case, i use a smtp server that require authentication, and sendmail configuration is almost cryptic to me.

PEAR is already installed in PHP 4.0.3 , if not, you must go to PEAR - PHP Extension and Application Repository and install it, in my case, I needed to add the Socket.php to the PEAR library.

if you have a mail server run your mail server before you can use the mail function but instead use admin@localhost since you are only using a localhost server.

Or try to find some free hosting and then you don't have nothing to configure the mail. though some host has disable the mail function to avoid spam
