when i try to register from the front-end of Joomla, its displayed that the activation email has been sent but actually there is no email sent. i have tried this before but on a Web host and it works fine on any Web host. For now i need to test user registration on LOCALHOST?

I am using PHP MAIL, don't know anything about SMTP config?
