XAMPP PHP sending emails from to localhost

I'm trying to send messages from Localhost to Localhost (Thunderbird account), I'm using XAMPP following this tutorial How to use mercury ....

My php.ini conf is 

    [mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = localhost
; http://php.net/smtp-port
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/sendmail-from
sendmail_from = postmaster@localhost

; For Unix only.  You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
; http://php.net/sendmail-path
;sendmail_path

=

Despite that I still receive the next error 

 Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 421 Service not available, closing channel.

I had exactly the same issue! It was caused by not having a QUEUE folder. So I added a folder named QUEUE tot the MercuryMail directory C:\xampp\MercuryMail and this fixed the problem for me!

Complete path: C:\xampp\MercuryMail\QUEUE
