I have used PHPMailer for SMTP and there is problem in sending mail with error "Mailer Error: The following From address failed: no-reply@mydomain.org.uk"
My code is as follows:
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP
$mail->Host = "localhost;"; // SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = ""; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = ""; // SMTP password
$mail->From = $email_address;
$mail->FromName = $email_address;
$mail->AddAddress($arrStudent[0]["email"]);
$mail->WordWrap = 50; // set word wrap
$mail->IsHTML(true); // send as HTML
$mail->Subject = "Subject";
$theData = str_replace("\n", "<BR>", $stuff);
$mail->Body = $theData; // "This is the <b>HTML body</b>";
$mail->AltBody = $stuff;
if (!$mail->Send()) {
$sent = 0;
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
i researched everything and when i debug inside class.smtp.php i found error the function "get_lines()" is returning error value "550 Authentication failed"
The code was working fine previously, i am wondering how this problem came suddenly.
Desperate for some help.
Thanks,
Biplab
public function sendEmail ( $subject, $to, $body, $from = FALSE ) {
require_once('mailer.class.php');
$mailer = new PHPMailer();
//do we use SMTP?
if ( USE_SMTP ) {
$mailer->IsSMTP();
$mailer->SMTPAuth = true;
$mailer->Host = SMTP_HOST;
$mailer->Port = SMTP_PORT;
$mailer->Password = '';
$mailer->Username = '';
if(USE_SSL)
$mailer->SMTPSecure = "ssl";
}
$mailer->SetFrom($from?$from:ADMIN_EMAIL, ADMIN_NAME);
$mailer->AddReplyTo ( ADMIN_EMAIL, ADMIN_NAME );
$mailer->AddAddress($to);
$mailer->Subject = $subject;
//$mailer->WordWrap = 100;
$mailer->IsHTML ( TRUE );
$mailer->MsgHTML($body);
require_once('util.class.php');
$mailer->AltBody = Util::html2text ( $body );
//$mail->AddAttachment("images/phpmailer.gif"); // attachment
//$mail->AddAttachment("images/phpmailer_mini.gif"); // attachment
if ( ! $mailer->Send() ) {
return FALSE;
}
else {
$mailer->ClearAllRecipients ();
$mailer->ClearReplyTos ();
return TRUE;
}
}
I've used like that... SetFrom should be used in place of From... that's your error buddy... :))
try adding belowe line to php.ini
extension=php_openssl.dll
restart and try again
I am using YII's Mailer with PHPMailer, and this works for me:
$mail = Yii::createComponent('application.extensions.mailer.EMailer');
$mail->Username = $this->SMTP_USERNAME; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = $this->SMTP_PASSWORD; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->From = $this->fromAddress;
$mail->Host = $this->SMTP_SERVER_ADDRESS;
$mail->FromName = $this->fromName;
$mail->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
$mail->Subject = Yii::t('mailer', $this->subject);
$mail->Body = $this->message;
$mail->AddReplyTo($this->toAddress);
$mail->AddAddress($this->toAddress);
$mail->IsSMTP(true);
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Send();
Hope that helps?
