You still follow her instructions by hitting enter until you get to the end of the message (either your mail message if you have an SMTP server set up locally, or the error message) and then type delete to get rid of it and quit to exit.

$mail->setFrom($email, $name);
$mail->addAddress('your personal address@example.com', 'your name'); // Add a recipient
if everything is right, use the form again and you should receive an email directly in your inbox.
