You are unfortunately posting in the wrong place… this should be in the beginner or general forum. This forum is for the IRC channel feedback.
(I moved it for you.)
Looks like you have something set up wrong in your mail() headers. Have you looked at the manual? There are good examples in the English online version. We will need more information to help you out more.
I suspect (by the error message and it’s Windows reference to a path), that you do not have sendmail installed (or other MTA). Thus, you are relegated to utilize the SMTP functions (your own ISP’s info) which must be configured in the PHP.INI file (see the [mail function] section.)
