I would like to use the phpMailer.
Haven't used it before but I am told that it is the way to go.
Anyway does anyone have any experience using the phpMailer
What I have done thus far is to load the files to my server and include them
into the php.ini file. this part works fine.
But when I call the file mailTest.php "see code below" it sends this error:
Warning: fsockopen() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in
/home/content/r/a/l/raleigh123/html/php/class.smtp.php on line 105
Message could not be sent.
Mailer Error: Language string failed to load: connect_host
Now when I contacted my provider godaddy.com for information they told me
that I had to use this string in my code in place of the username and
password: ( relay-hosting.secureserver.net ) minus the parenthesis of
course. However I don't know where to put this piece of information into the
phpMailer code.
I scanned the class.smtp file and the class.phpMailer file but couldn't find
anywhere that the information would fit.
I am using one of the test scripts that come with phpMailer:
<?php
require("class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
// set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = "http://www.mysite.org";
//relay-hosting.secureserver.net
// specify main and backup server
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "jondoe"; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "ADeer"; // SMTP password
$mail->From = "from@example.com";
$mail->FromName = "Mailer";
$mail->AddAddress("mysite@site.com", "Kevin Raleigh");
//$mail->AddAddress("ellen@example.com");
// name is optional
//$mail->AddReplyTo("info@example.com", "Information");
$mail->WordWrap = 50;
// set word wrap to 50 characters
//$mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz");
// add attachments
//$mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg");
// optional name
$mail->IsHTML(true);
// set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = "Here is the subject";
$mail->Body = "This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>";
$mail->AltBody = "This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients";
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
echo "Message has been sent again";
?>
Can anyone advise me on how to work with phpMailer
Your insights would be greatly appreciated
thank you
Kevin
