Problem logging into Magento after installation

If you have just installed the Magento online-shopping cart system onto your "localhost" and are having trouble when you log into the backend-part:

Try replacing:
http://localhost/<path_to_magento>/index.php/admin/

with:
http://127.0.0.1/<path_to_magento>/index.php/admin/

The reason for this bug seems to be that Magento does not recognise "localhost" as being the equivalent to "127.0.0.1" (the localhost's IP Address) and only "127.0.0.1" seems to work. This seems to be a strange bug that I have never experienced in other applications.

  1. For enabling IMAP on TalkTalk mail it is advisable to set the Email address as the username after that the user should set the Email account password further the user should set the server hostname if needed then for more information the user should get connected with the TalkTalk mail experts. There is no such issue that cannot be resolved by the experts.
