Sending mail to local mail server - “SENT: 550 The

问题:

I am trying to send mail to my local mail server. I am using hMailServer as mail server and I have configured it as mentioned here:

Setting up local Mail (SMTP, POP3, IMAP) Server on XAMPP

But when I try to send mail I am getting this error:

( ! ) Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 550 The address is not valid. in C:\wamp\www\kariyersitem\register.php on line 161

Log files of the mail server indicates this error as below:

"DEBUG" 3108    "2012-01-08 18:04:24.447"   "Creating session 14"  
"SMTPD" 3108    14  "2012-01-08 18:04:24.448"   "127.0.0.1" "SENT: 220 localhost ESMTP"

"DEBUG" 3392    "2012-01-08 18:04:24.462"   "Ending session 14"  

I have checked address and I am sure it is correct.
Can anyone tell me what is the problem?

Here my mail code:

$to      = $frm_kadi;  
$subject = $site_title.' Üyelik Aktivasyonu';  
$message = 'hello';  
$headers = 'From: '.$contact."\r\n".'Reply-To: '.$contact."\r\n".'X-Mailer: PHP/'.phpversion();  
$mresult = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);  

I have checked $contact and It is written as [e-mail] in my config.php file. Before sending mail I have use echo function to debug my code and it is correct.

Currently my $contact variable is set to:

$contact = "[e-mail]";

UPDATE 1

Setting sendmail_from to [e-mail] in php.ini as @Jared Farrish suggested solved the first problem. But now I have a new problem:

"DEBUG" 3108    "2012-01-08 22:15:28.497"   "Creating session 24"  
"SMTPD" 3108    24  "2012-01-08 22:15:28.498"   "127.0.0.1" "SENT: 220 localhost ESMTP"

"SMTPD" 3108    24  "2012-01-08 22:15:28.500"   "127.0.0.1" "SENT: 250 Hello."  
"SMTPD" 4380    24  "2012-01-08 22:15:28.511"   "127.0.0.1" "RECEIVED: MAIL FROM:<[e-mail]>"

"SMTPD" 2040    24  "2012-01-08 22:15:28.552"   "127.0.0.1" "RECEIVED: QUIT"  
"DEBUG" 2040    "2012-01-08 22:15:28.552"   "Deleting message file"

"DEBUG" 4380    "2012-01-08 22:15:28.555"   "Closing TCP/IP socket"  
"DEBUG" 4380    "2012-01-08 22:15:28.556"   "Ending session 24"  

It seems like it does not get destination address completely. I am trying to send mail to myself but it gets only username olcayertas and missing domain @gmail.com.

UPDATE 2

I have solved the second problem. It was my mistake.

UPDATE 3

Now I am getting this error:

"SENT: 530 SMTP authentication is required."

But I have already filled SMTP authentication settings under Settings->Ptotocols->SMTP->Delivery of e-mail->SMTP Relayer. Server requires authentication and Use SSL otions checked.

UPDATE 4

Disabling Require SMPTP authentication options of hMailServer in Settings->Advanced->IP Ranges->My Compter solved SMTP authentication problem.

回答1:

To solve SENT: 550550 The address is not valid. problem, you have to set sendmail_from to a valid mail address in php.ini file.

To solve SENT: 530 SMTP authentication is required problem, open hMailServer Administrator. Go to Settings->Advanced->IP Ranges->My Compter. Disable all options under "Require SMTP authentication" section.

回答2:

It seems that you are sending the "sender"-email (From-Header) like this: you@yourdomain. yourdomain is an invalid domain. Change this to a valid email-address.

回答3:

You're using you@yourdomain as the From address and the server rejects it.
Use a real address instead.

回答4:

I'm guessing $contact is <[e-mail]> and that's what's causing the problem. Try changing it to [e-mail].

回答5:

KEEP IN MIND, every time, after You change php.ini,

you should restart wamp (! ! !)

to read the updated php.ini

p.s. you may need to use ini_set("sendmail_from", "[e-mail]"); in your php script, before mail();
