Hi..

I already set the setting at application/librarry/email.php .But,still i can not send email through this codeigniter.

Below shows the error message that i had encountered.

Severity: Warning

Message: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set()

Filename: libraries/Email.php

Line Number: 1519

If i am not mistaken,the space for smtp just leave it blank right?
Does anyone know how to send the email correctly?

Thank You

A quick Google :

http://www.google.co.th/search?aq=f&sour...ie=UTF-8&q="Failed+to+connect+to+mailserver+at+“localhost”"

Reveals umpteen results.

This is not a CI problem

I don't know if you fixed it already.

From user guide - email class

Code:

Preference     Default Value     Options     Description
................................
................................
................................
smtp_host    No Default    None    SMTP Server Address.
smtp_user    No Default    None    SMTP Username.
smtp_pass    No Default    None    SMTP Password.

so you should set your host, user and password.
smpt_port defaults to 25, so if that's what you use you can ignore this config.

Best way edit php.ini and set it to your hosting provider SMTP port etc!

Like I have Comcast and use their SMTP config in php.ini
