Use another SMTP

If you not using ssl in smtp host than you can use 567 smtp port

$config = array(
      'protocol' => 'smtp',
      'smtp_host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',
      'smtp_port' => 567,
      'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
      'smtp_pass' => 'correo',
    
     );


If you are using ssl in smtp host than you can use 465 smtp port

$config = array(
      'protocol' => 'smtp',
      'smtp_host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
      'smtp_port' => 465,
      'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
      'smtp_pass' => 'correo',
    
     );

@arugama: Gmail are picky on how you send your new lines and you may need to enable "Unsafe applications".

PHP Code:

$config = [
 'protocol' => 'smtp',
 'smtp_host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
 'smtp_port' => 465,
 'mailtype' => 'html',
 'smtp_user' => '',
 'smtp_pass' => '',
 'newline' => "\r\n",
]; 


@XtreemDeveloper: Your first example are wrong. It's port 587 and you need to set smtp_crypto to tls.

i made the change, and this happen

Download cacert.pem and place it somewhere on your computer.
Open your php.ini file and add the following:

Code:

openssl.cafile = "C:\path\to\your\file\cacert.pem"

awesome, work like a charm

You can also use your own internet providers smtp server, I'm on Comcast and I use their's.

It's a good idea to setup your smtp in the php.ini file under the php directory.

If your on a Windows system you can use this Email Tool.

Test Mail Server Tool

On Ubuntu you can install and use this Tool.

swaks – SMTP test tool
