You can configure your PHP script to send emails without using an external mailing service like Brevo by utilizing the built-in `mail()` function in PHP. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Configure Your PHP Script:

   Below is a basic example of how to send an email using the `mail()` function in PHP:

   “`php

   <?php

   $to = “recipient@example.com”;

   $subject = “Test Email”;

   $message = “This is a test email.”;

   $headers = “From: sender@example.com”;

   // Send email

   if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) {

       echo “Email sent successfully.”;

   } else {

       echo “Failed to send email.”;

   }

   ?>

   “`

   Replace `”recipient@example.com“` with the recipient’s email address, `”sender@example.com“` with the sender’s email address, `”Test Email“` with the subject of the email, and `”This is a test email.”` with the content of the email.

2. Configure PHP to Send Emails:

   – Ensure that your PHP installation is correctly configured to send emails. You may need to configure the `php.ini` file to specify the SMTP server settings. Look for the following directives in `php.ini` and configure them accordingly:

     “`

     [mail function]

     SMTP = smtp.example.com

     smtp_port = 25

     sendmail_from = sender@example.com

     “`

     Replace `smtp.example.com` with the address of your SMTP server and `sender@example.com` with the sender’s email address.

   – Alternatively, you can specify the SMTP server settings directly in your PHP script using the `ini_set()` function:

     “`php

     <?php

     ini_set(“SMTP”, “smtp.example.com”);

     ini_set(“smtp_port”, “25”);

     ini_set(“sendmail_from”, “sender@example.com”);

     // Send email using mail() function

     ?>

     “`

3. Test Your Script:

Once you’ve configured your PHP script and PHP settings, test it by running the script to send an email. Check the recipient’s inbox to verify that the email was delivered successfully.

By following these steps, you can configure your PHP script to send emails without relying on an external mailing service like Brevo. However, keep in mind that sending emails directly from your server may require additional configuration and may be subject to limitations imposed by your hosting provider or mail server.
