 * Hello
 * I am running WP on a local envireonment ([http://local_address:port](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/send-mail-from-localhost/?output_format=md)).
   I am using “WP Mail SMTP”-plugin to send mails as I have no mail server on that
   server (RasPi). To send mail this way it is working fine so far.
 * What I now want to do is to send a form using SMTP to a valid mail adress with
   Contact Form 7. Unfortunately I receive syntax and config errors while form creation.
   It is telling me that the domain does not match in “from” field. As I mentioned,
   I am running WP on a local environment like [http://local_address:port](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/send-mail-from-localhost/?output_format=md).
   I have not a proper domain and I am not going to have.

 * Is there a way to send this form anyway?
 * Kind regards
