SMTP Mail not sending - Codeigniter Email Library - anburocky3 - 06-29-2018
I'm having issues in sending mail through SMTP Protocol.
**Welcome.php**
PHP Code:
$this->load->library('email');
$config = array();
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host'] = 'smtp.zoho.com';
$config['smtp_user'] = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass'] = '**************';
$config['smtp_port'] = 465;
$config["smtp_crypto"] = "ssl";
$this->email->initialize($config);
$this->email->set_newline("\r\n");
$this->email->from('[email protected]', 'Support name'); // change it to yours
$this->email->to($to);// change it to yours
$this->email->subject($subject);
$this->email->message($message);
if($this->email->send())
{
echo "Success! - An email has been sent to ".$to;
}
else
{
show_error($this->email->print_debugger());
return false;
}
}
Here is the output error:
Code:

These are the things to remember:
1. The code is fine (Tried in different hosting and it works)
2. Changing $config['protocol'] = "smtp"; to $config['protocol'] = "sendmail"; it works. But I want to send mail only through SMTP Protocol.
3. Using Zoho Mail SMTP Protocols (smtp.zoho.com)
4. Tried, Google SMTP, Still not sending. (Used PHPMailer Library to test with the credentials. It's working on them.)

You need to add the SMTP server and PORT to your php.ini file.

Can you describe clearly?
RE: SMTP Mail not sending - Codeigniter Email Library - InsiteFX - 07-01-2018
Like I mentioned you need to edit the php.ini file usually it's in the php folder on development machines.
I use my internet providers settings like below
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = smtp.comcast.net
; http://php.net/smtp-port
smtp_port = 587

anburocky3 use $config['protocol'] = "smtp"; and not $config['protocol'] = "mail";. The config will not work... .

The problem was fixed! The culprit was Valid Hostname & Reverse DNS. Thank you.

In my case I cant make it work at first using this config:]
define('SMTP','true');
define('SMTP_host','mail.example.com');
define('SMTP_user','[email protected]');
define('SMTP_pass','xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');
define('SMTP_port','465');
then, I just change the port to 2.. and all are just fine now!
RE: SMTP Mail not sending - Codeigniter Email Library - InsiteFX - 10-07-2018
That's not a secure port number.
The port is setup in your php.ini file like I mentioned above.
