GMAIL works with MYBB 100% on Windows

[ksr]

I must be stupid, so I have to edit the php.ini file before I can send email

---

Also extension=php_openssl.dll does not show up at all

---

also ; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25
auth_username =
auth_password =

am I supposed to enter those values here? Or in the MyBB settings?

You need to enter this values in mybb settings and not in your php.ini file:
Goto ACP => Settings => Mail Settings=> <Fill the values>

Does this work for Linux servers to? (just the uncomment openssl part?) cuz I'm having a google apps email issue too.. I moved to a VPS and now MyBB won't connect to gmail smtp server.

It does work for me in Linux Hosting.
