Thread:Project:Support desk/IIS / send e-mail/reply

Basically there is something wrong with how email is configured (When a new person registers, we send an email asking them to confirm their email).

Possible solutions are:
 * 1) Tell MediaWiki not to use email by setting $wgEnableEmail to false.
 * 2) Fix your email settings. It sounds like the issue is that php is trying to send email by connecting to a smtp server on the localhost, without there being one. You need to change the SMTP setting in php.ini to point to a real mail server. See http://php.net/manual/en/mail.configuration.php
