Mail.php & Smtp Authentication Issue

问题:

I've been trying to utilize a mail.php file from the jquery contactable plugin (found on google!) to use on my website. Although the script provided is fairly simple I'm running into issues with integrating it with my Host's SMTP requirement. Here is the original script without SMTP authentication:

<?php
    // Assign contact info
    $name = stripcslashes($_POST['name']);
    $emailAddr = stripcslashes($_POST['email']);
    $issue = stripcslashes($_POST['issue']);
    $comment = stripcslashes($_POST['message']);
    $subject = stripcslashes($_POST['subject']);    

    // Set headers
    $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

    // Format message
    $contactMessage =  
    "<div>
    <p><strong>Name:</strong> $name <br />
    <strong>E-mail:</strong> $emailAddr <br />
    <strong>Issue:</strong> $issue </p>

    <p><strong>Message:</strong> $comment </p>

    <p><strong>Sending IP:</strong> $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]<br />
    <strong>Sent via:</strong> $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]</p>
    </div>";

    // Send and check the message status
    $response = (mail('[e-mail]', $subject, $contactMessage, $headers) ) ? "success" : "failure" ;
    $output = json_encode(array("response" => $response));

    header('content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8');
    echo($output);

?>

I've tried using suggestions from Google and played around with it for hours. Here is the latest version based on my nil-understanding of php thus far. -__- (Based on this: http://blog.geek4support.com/php-mail-script-with-smtp-authentication-how-to-send-mails-by-php-mail-script-using-smtp-authetication/)

<?php
 require_once "Mail.php";

    // Assign contact info
    $name = stripcslashes($_POST['name']);
    $emailAddr = stripcslashes($_POST['email']);
    $issue = stripcslashes($_POST['issue']);
    $comment = stripcslashes($_POST['message']);
    $subject = stripcslashes($_POST['subject']);    


 $host = "mail.mywebsite.com";
 $username = "[e-mail]";
 $password = "mymailpassword";

    // Set headers
    $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

    // Format message
    $contactMessage =  
    "<div>
    <p><strong>Name:</strong> $name <br />
    <strong>E-mail:</strong> $emailAddr <br />
    <strong>Issue:</strong> $issue </p>

    <p><strong>Message:</strong> $comment </p>

    <p><strong>Sending IP:</strong> $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]<br />
    <strong>Sent via:</strong> $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]</p>
    </div>";

 $smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',
   array ('host' => $host,
     'auth' => true,
     'username' => $username,
     'password' => $password));


 $response = ($smtp->send('[e-mail]', $subject, $contactMessage, $headers))  ? "success": "failure";
$output = json_encode(array("response" => $response));  
    header('content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8');
    echo($output);

 ?>

I've actually run into a bit of a problem. My host doesn't support PHPMailer :-(. Only PearMail with SMTP. They have suggested tweaking the code listed above and incorporating my existing one with it. Exactly, what I've been trying to do before posting this online. Back to square 1, any ideas?

Comments, suggestions, anything would be most appreciated! :-)

For sending mails, try PHPMailer, it's tested, everybody uses it, and it just works. It also has a lot of features and configuration options.

The latest version is this one, as for sending mails using SMTP with PHPMailer this is all the code you need

// Data received from POST request
$name = stripcslashes($_POST['name']);
$emailAddr = stripcslashes($_POST['email']);
$issue = stripcslashes($_POST['issue']);
$comment = stripcslashes($_POST['message']);
$subject = stripcslashes($_POST['subject']);   

// Send mail
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP

// SMTP Configuration
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;                  // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Host = "myhost"; // SMTP server
$mail->Username = "[e-mail]";
$mail->Password = "yourpassword";            
//$mail->Port = 465; // optional if you don't want to use the default 

$mail->From = "[e-mail]";
$mail->FromName = "My Name";
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->AltBody = "To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!"; // optional, comment out and test
$mail->MsgHTML($issue . "<br /><br />" . $comment);

// Add as many as you want
$mail->AddAddress($emailAddr, $name);

// If you want to attach a file, relative path to it
//$mail->AddAttachment("images/phpmailer.gif");             // attachment

$response= NULL;
if(!$mail->Send()) {
    $response = "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
    $response = "Message sent!";
}

$output = json_encode(array("response" => $response));  
header('content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8');
echo($output);

This my test script for getting around the disabled PHP mail() function. It uses PearMail. The print statements are for testing in a browser, you may want to remove them.

<?php
/*
 * Script to send an email as the PHP mail() function is disabled.
 * The hosting company requires SMTP authentication etc.
 * need to install the pear mail package in the cPanel
 *
 * Use the [e-mail] as the sending/from email 
 * (or maybe the welcome one?)
 *
 * Sunday, 11 october 2015 
 * G O’Rilla

 function pearMail( $e_mail, $subject, $content ) {
 /*
 // To ignore the Strict Standards (which are non fatal) change your error 
 // reporting level in the php.ini file or better, inline with error_reporting()
 */
 error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_PARSE);
# To use installed modules (cPanel - PHP Extensions and Applications Package Installer)
# Add “/home/myaccount/php” to the include path. To do this, add the following code to your script:
