Dear developers, someone has contacted me with a question regarding (see subject). Can you help him and me by giving or pointing out some information page for this problem of running MediaWiki and mail under Windows ? Tom

Original mail follows:

hello,

I am trying to configure my system to use the email notification. Apache, MySql, PHP and MyPHPAdmin have been installed by EasyPHP...

I set the variables 'smtp' and 'sendmail_from' in php/php.ini and '$wgSMTP' in www/mediawiki/localsettings.php.

In the login page of the wiki, when I fill the "user name " textbox and click on the "mail me a new password" button I've got the following error:

--------------------------------------------------- Warning: usermailer(Mail.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in h:\easyphp\www\mediawiki\includes\UserMailer.php on line 54

Fatal error: usermailer(): Failed opening required 'Mail.php' (include_path='.;h:\easyphp\www\mediawiki;h:\easyphp\www\mediawiki/includes;h:\easyphp\www\mediawiki/languages') in h:\easyphp\www\mediawiki\includes\UserMailer.php on line 54 -----------------------------------------------------

It seems that my system is missing "mail.php" but I don't know where to get it and how to install it. I've read in the Enotif documentation that Pear should not be used. I don't know what is Pear but it has been installed by easyphp. Shall I remove it, or replace it by another package to get this "mail.php"?

any help would be greatly appreciated!

thx
