See https://github.com/ivantcholakov/codeigniter-phpmailer Try to use this library of mine.

application/config/email.php:

Code:

&lt;?php defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed.');



$config['useragent'] = 'PHPMailer'; // Mail engine switcher: 'CodeIgniter' or 'PHPMailer'

$config['protocol']         = 'smtp';                   // 'mail', 'sendmail', or 'smtp'

$config['mailpath']         = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';

$config['smtp_host']        = 'smtp.gmail.com';

$config['smtp_user']        = '[email protected]';

$config['smtp_pass']        = 'abcdefghijk';

$config['smtp_port']        = 465;

$config['smtp_timeout']     = 5;                        // (in seconds)

$config['smtp_crypto']      = 'ssl';                    // '' or 'tls' or 'ssl'

$config['wordwrap']         = true;

$config['wrapchars']        = 76;

$config['mailtype']         = 'html';                   // 'text' or 'html'

$config['charset']          = 'iso-8859-1';

$config['validate']         = true;

$config['priority']         = 3;                        // 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

$config['crlf']             = "\n";                     // "\r\n" or "\n" or "\r"

$config['newline']          = "\n";                     // "\r\n" or "\n" or "\r"

$config['bcc_batch_mode']   = false;

$config['bcc_batch_size']   = 200;

And testing within a controller:

Code:

$this->load->library('email');



$subject = 'Your client Sridhar, Invites you to join our website';

$message = '<p>From now on wants to transact business with you.</p>';

$body = $this->email->full_html($subject, $message);



$result = $this->email

    ->from('[email protected]', 'My Company Name') // Send from your Gmail account only.

    ->reply_to('[email protected]') // This is other account of yours.

    ->to('[email protected]')

    ->subject($subject)

    ->message($body)

    ->send();



var_dump($result);

echo '<br />';

echo $this->email->print_debugger();

I did a similar test. The setting

Code:
$config['useragent'] = 'PHPMailer';

works for me, but with the setting

Code:
$config['useragent'] = 'CodeIgniter';

I had no success.

[quote author="noideawhattotypehere" date="1375266466"]Isnt gmails smtp port 587? At least thats what im using with ssmtp...[/quote]

A Gmail configuration example, using port 587:

application/config/email.php:

Code:

&lt;?php defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed.');



$config['useragent'] = 'PHPMailer'; // Mail engine switcher: 'CodeIgniter' or 'PHPMailer'

$config['protocol']         = 'smtp';                   // 'mail', 'sendmail', or 'smtp'

$config['mailpath']         = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';

$config['smtp_host']        = 'smtp.gmail.com';

$config['smtp_user']        = '[email protected]';

$config['smtp_pass']        = 'abcdefghijk';

$config['smtp_port']        = 587;

$config['smtp_timeout']     = 5;                        // (in seconds)

$config['smtp_crypto']      = 'tls';                    // '' or 'tls' or 'ssl'

$config['wordwrap']         = true;

$config['wrapchars']        = 76;

$config['mailtype']         = 'html';                   // 'text' or 'html'

$config['charset']          = 'iso-8859-1';

$config['validate']         = true;

$config['priority']         = 3;                        // 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

$config['crlf']             = "\n";                     // "\r\n" or "\n" or "\r"

$config['newline']          = "\n";                     // "\r\n" or "\n" or "\r"

$config['bcc_batch_mode']   = false;

$config['bcc_batch_size']   = 200;

These are the changed settings in comparison with the previously posted example:
$config['smtp_port'] = 587;
$config['smtp_crypto'] = 'tls';
