Install Mercury after XAMPP installation

installation, mercury-mta, xampp

Solution

For who would be interested (that applies to any not-initially-installed module of XAMPP package):

- create a folder inside xampp, e.g. \xampp\mercury. In windows it should be "MercuryMail".

- download mercury from here: http://www.pmail.com/downloads_s3_t.htm

- during installation, point to the \xampp\mercury\ folder.

edit the file \xampp\xampp-control.ini:

[EnableModules]->Mercury=1

[BinaryNames]->Mercury=mercury.exe

Reload XAMPP Control panel That's all!

Problem

I have initially installed XAMPP without checking the Mercury installation. Of course, the module shows-up in the XAMPP Control panel but is disabled and there is no mean to install it from there. How should I do without re-installing the whole XAMPP package?
