Problem with SMTP authentication in PHP using PHPM

I´m having trouble sending a e-mail with the PHPMailer class, but it works with PEAR Mail::factory.

I guess the problem is with the SMTP authentication, but I couldn´t find the problem.

The code with problem is:

<?php
require("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsSMTP();       // set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'mail.xxx.com.br';  // my host here
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;     // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'xxx@xxx.com.br';  // a valid email here
$mail->Password = '***';  // the password from email
$mail->From = 'from@xxx.com.br';
$mail->SMTPDebug = true;
$mail->AddReplyTo('from@xxx.com.br', 'Test');

$mail->FromName = 'Test SMTP';
$mail->AddAddress('teste@xxx.com.br', 'teste@xxx.com.br');

$mail->Subject = 'Test SMTP';
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Body = '<b>Teste</b><br><h1>teste 2</h1>';   
//$mail->Send();

if(!$mail->Send())
{
   echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
   echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
   exit;
}

?>

The code with PEAR that works is:

<?php
include('Mail.php');
include('Mail/mime.php');

$text = 'Versao em texto';
$html = '<html><body>Versao de email em <b>HTML</b></body></html>';
$crlf = "\n";
$hdrs = array(
              'From'    => 'from@xxx.com.br',
              'Subject' => 'Test  - mail.php'
              );

$mime = new Mail_mime($crlf);

$mime->setTXTBody($text);
$mime->setHTMLBody($html);

$body = $mime->get();
$hdrs = $mime->headers($hdrs);

$mail = Mail::factory('smtp',
  array ('host' => 'mail.xxx.com.br',
    'debug'=> true,
    'auth' => true,
    'username' => 'xxx@xxx.com.br',
    'password' => '***'));

$mail->send('teste@xxx.com.br', $hdrs, $body);
?>

When I run the code with problem with debug activated (SMTPDebug = True) I got:

回答1:

strange issue that i solved by comment this line

//$mail->IsSmtp();

whit the last phpmailer version (5.2)

回答2:

Try adding this:

$mail->SMTPAuth   = true;
$mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";

By looking at your debug logs, you can notice that the failing PhpMailer log shows this:

(..snip..)
SMTP -> ERROR: AUTH not accepted from server: 250 orion.bommtempo.net.br Hello admin-teste.bommtempo.com.br [200.155.129.6]
(..snip..)
503 AUTH command used when not advertised
(..snip..)

While your successful PEAR log shows this:

DEBUG: Send: STARTTLS
DEBUG: Recv: 220 TLS go ahead

My guess is that explicitly asking PHPMailer to use TLS will put it on the right track.
Also, make sure you're using the latest versin of PHPMailer.

回答3:

This happened to me as well. For me, Postfix was located at the same server as the PHP script, and the error was happening when I would be using SMTP authentication and smtp.domain.com instead of localhost.

So when I commented out these lines:

~~$mail->SMTPAuth = true;~~
~~$mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";~~

and set the host to

$mail->Host = "localhost";

instead

~~$mail->Host = 'smtp.mydomainiuse.com'~~

and it worked :)

回答4:

that the OpenSSL extension enabled and the directory languages with "br"? first checks the data.

回答5:

Exim 4 requires that AUTH command only be sent after the client issued EHLO - attempts to authenticate without EHLO would be rejected. Some mailservers require that EHLO be issued twice. PHPMailer apparently fails to do so. If PHPMailer does not allow you to force EHLO initiation, you really should switch to SwiftMailer 4.

回答6:

Check if you have set restrict outgoing SMTP to only some system users (root, MTA, mailman...). That restriction may prevent the spammers, but will redirect outgoing SMTP connections to the local mail server.
