"how to configure wamp (localhost) to send email using gmail?" Code Answer

gmail servers use smtp authentication under ssl or tls. i think that there is no way to use the mail() function under that circumstances, so you might want to check these alternatives:

pear::mail
phpmailer
nettemail

they all support smtp auth under ssl.

you'll need to enable the php_openssl extension in your php.ini.
