RE: Emails sent to Hotmail are vanishing - Wouter60 - 12-29-2017
I tried sending emails with Gmail as smtp, but I get this error:
Code:
The following SMTP error was encountered: 145 Connection timed out
Unable to send email using PHP SMTP. Your server might not be configured to send mail using this method.My config/email.php file looks like this:
PHP Code:
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host'] = 'ssl://smtp.googlemail.com';
$config['smtp_port'] = 465;
$config['smtp_user'] = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'my_password';
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$config['charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';
$config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;

It gives your message/server a score out of 10, but breaks down the reason for that. I was getting below 3 on my message/server combination, but am now usually 9 or above.
My score is 8.6

My domain isn't on any blacklist.
But in the toolbox, the mail server gives 1 error: DNS not found. Could that be the problem?

@Wouter60: You may need to enable "Unsafe applications" and change your config.
Gmail are picky on how you send your new lines.

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