localhost mail issue

I just installed the XP version of Exponential 3. I got it all working with a little pushing (I have PHP Admin installed also and had some issues with the localhost dir).

Anyway, I just signed up for an account at the admin link and of course my local system will not send an email for confirmation.

Is there a workaround for this issue via the GUI or if not what do I have to edit in the DB to activate accounts whilst I am developing locally.

Go to the settings\siteaccess\site.ini.append file and set the TransportServer=Your SMTP server name
TransportPort=25

it should work
