As far as I remember, the xampp is by default contains the Mail package, but
you should check the presence of the Mail.php in the C:\xampp\php\PEAR
directory.
the include_path seems good but the last ; is not necessary.
Could you check that you removed the ; from the begining of the line, and
that you don't have any other active include_path line in your php.ini, and
you modified the correct php.ini?
last time when I checked xampp, the php.ini was in xampp/apache/bin
