It may be because you do not have a configured mail server. Are you tying this on your desktop?

I had the same problem on my Ubuntu desktop but the same code worked on my shared server (at hostgator).

I have never set up a mail server so I can't help you with that .

Hello rafee
It won't work on the localhost. so you need to upload it on the web server and then try to send the email again.
