PHP - sending mail using xampp localhost

Question

I'm trying send to a gmail, using xampp.

my PHP version is 5.6.8

Using this source as a guide, I changed the config of my php.ini and sendmail.ini But it didn't work for me. The page always display Failure: Email was not sent!

This is my php:

$to      = '[email protected]';
$subject = 'No subject';
$message = 'Hello, this is the content of the email.';
$headers = 'From: [email protected]';

if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) {
    echo 'Email sent successfully!';
} else {
    die('Failure: Email was not sent!');
}

These are the things that I changed in my php.ini:

SMTP=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
sendmail_from = [email protected]
sendmail_path = "\"C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t"

sendmail.ini:

smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
error_logfile=error.log
debug_logfile=debug.log
[email protected]
auth_password=**********
[email protected]

Do you have a SMTP server in your local host??
