XAMPP and SMTP settings

Hi guys,

I'm trying to setup the email to work with a contact form in wordpress on XAMPP running on a server on my own pc...

I changed the following settings in the sendmail.ini:

smtp_server=smtp.zoho.com

smtp_port=465

auth_username= info@mydomainname.com (the username used to login to zoho mail)

auth_password=password (the password used to login to zoho mail)

However when I try to contact form on the wordpress website it does not send the mail... I'm clueless why, since it says it does. But then nothing arrives....

I NEED HELP :(
