WP/XAMPP local version - trouble with 'post by e-mail' (2 posts)

    Hello
    I have set up on a local network
    - a virtual serveur through XAMPP
    - a local version of WP

    I have then set up the 'post by email' function (using gmail, then a classical POP3 without SSL > eg gmx.com)

    However, when I go to /wp-mail.php, I get the below error message:

    POP3 connect: Error [10061] [No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. ]

    (and consequently, the post-by-email function is not working)

    Thanks in advance for any suggestion !

    Just to complete: is there any way to solve it by installing a pop3 thing with Mercury/XAMPP ?

    Thanks a lot in advance !
