Description:
------------
This is the error I get
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in C:\PHP\PEAR\Mail.php on line 90

Using default Windows php-5.1.4 php.ini with mysql dll uncommented.

Here is the code snippet. Please insert your own values for the variables.

$backend = 'smtp';

$headers['From'] = $from;
$headers['Subject'] = $subject;

$params["host"] = $host;
$params["username"] = $username;
$params["password"] = $password;
$params["auth"] = TRUE;
$params["debug"] = TRUE;

//create the mail object
$mail_object =& Mail::factory($backend, $params);
//send the email
Mail::send($to, $headers, $body)

Your code is wrong. You can't call send() statically.

It works fine on my linux server. Just have the problem on windows.

if I try:
$mail_object->send($to, $headers, $body);

in place of:
Mail::send($to, $headers, $body);

it times out : DEBUG:QUIT
