Im building a site and I need to implement a form sending option, after a lot of research I settled on PHPMAILER. I set my script to work with my gmail address for testing purposes and it works fine, but when I inputted the clients email details it doesnt work.
When I submit the application, this is what i am getting
SMTP -> ERROR: Failed to connect to server: Connection refused (111)
I contacted support and verified the port and host, and contacted the client and verified the login info. Is there another reason why it might not be working?
Update I made a small script that allows me to easily test settings
<?php
require 'classes/class.phpmailer.php';
require 'classes/class.smtp.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
$mail->IsSMTP();
try{
$mail->SMTPDebug = 1;
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";no
$mail->Host = "smtp.domain.com";
$mail->Port = 25;
$mail->Username = "username";//user@domain.com
$mail->Password = "pwd";
$mail->AddAddress('alme1304@gmail.com');//RECIPIENT
//$mail->SetFrom('name@yourdomain.com', 'First Last');//IDK WHAT 'THIS' IS FOR
//$mail->AddReplyTo($_POST['email'], $_POST['f_name'].' '.$_POST['l_name']);//FOR THE 'REPLY-TO' FIELD
$mail->Subject = 'test email';
$mail->MsgHTML('test_email');
$mail->Send();
} catch (phpmailerException $e) {
echo $e->errorMessage(); //Pretty error messages from PHPMailer
echo $mail->Host;
echo '<pre>';
print_r($mail);
echo '</pre>';
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage(); //Boring error messages from anything else!
}
