    <p>I apologise for the rambling nature of this question, please bear with me and I'll provide all the extra info needed for you to stop me going mad from failing at something that looks inherently very straightforward...</p> <p>I've just installed CakePHP 2.2, and the first thing I've done is add the cakeDC Users plugin. It's all working, apart from sending an email verification when a user registers.</p> <p>I've tried so many combinations of different things in email.php, that I have now utterly got my knickers in a twist. Whatever I do, when the verification email should be sent, all I get is: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.</p> <p>My email.php currently looks like this:</p> <p>class EmailConfig {</p> <pre><code>public $default = array( 'transport' =&gt; 'Smtp', 'from' =&gt; 'blah@gmail.com', //'charset' =&gt; 'utf-8', //'headerCharset' =&gt; 'utf-8', ); public $smtp = array( 'transport' =&gt; 'Smtp', 'from' =&gt; array('Blah &lt;blah@gmail.com&gt;' =&gt; 'Chimp'), 'host' =&gt; 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com', 'port' =&gt; 465, 'timeout' =&gt; 30, 'username' =&gt; 'blah@gmail.com', 'password' =&gt; 'secret', 'client' =&gt; null, 'log' =&gt; false, //'charset' =&gt; 'utf-8', //'headerCharset' =&gt; 'utf-8', ); public $fast = array( 'from' =&gt; 'blah@blah.net', 'sender' =&gt; null, 'to' =&gt; null, 'cc' =&gt; null, 'bcc' =&gt; null, 'replyTo' =&gt; null, 'readReceipt' =&gt; null, 'returnPath' =&gt; null, 'messageId' =&gt; true, 'subject' =&gt; null, 'message' =&gt; null, 'headers' =&gt; null, 'viewRender' =&gt; null, 'template' =&gt; false, 'layout' =&gt; false, 'viewVars' =&gt; null, 'attachments' =&gt; null, 'emailFormat' =&gt; null, 'transport' =&gt; 'Smtp', 'host' =&gt; 'blah.net', 'port' =&gt; 25, 'timeout' =&gt; 30, 'username' =&gt; 'user', 'password' =&gt; 'secret', 'client' =&gt; null, 'log' =&gt; true, //'charset' =&gt; 'utf-8', //'headerCharset' =&gt; 'utf-8', ); </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>How do I get cakeDC Users plugin to just send a non-SMTP email? Or do I <em>have</em> to use, for example, my Gmail details? But, if I do have to go down the SMTP route, what is wrong with the above?</p> <p>Other info: I'm using the latest version of XAMPP and my PHP install is ssl enabled.</p>

    1. COOh, if I change the transport of $default back to Mail, the registration page runs through to completion, claiming to have sent an email (rather than erroring), but no email arrives.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
