Hi guy, I am trying to send an email using the codeiginiter class mailing class function, but I found a problem with the SMTP protocol. I am using gmail smtp protocol. I am running this on a local machine. I am using the Xampp 1.7.4 package and I tried the installation as shown below:
function index() { $config['protocol'] = 'smtp'; // mail, sendmail, or smtp The mail sending protocol. $config['smtp_host'] = 'smtp.gmail.com'; // SMTP Server Address. $config['smtp_user'] = ' me@gmail.com '; // SMTP Username. $config['smtp_pass'] = '123'; // SMTP Password. $config['smtp_port'] = '25'; // SMTP Port. $config['smtp_timeout'] = '5'; // SMTP Timeout (in seconds). $config['wordwrap'] = TRUE; // TRUE or FALSE (boolean) Enable word-wrap. $config['wrapchars'] = 76; // Character count to wrap at. $config['mailtype'] = 'html'; // text or html Type of mail. If you send HTML email you must send it as a complete web page. Make sure you don't have any relative links or relative image paths otherwise they will not work. $config['charset'] = 'utf-8'; // Character set (utf-8, iso-8859-1, etc.). $config['validate'] = FALSE; // TRUE or FALSE (boolean) Whether to validate the email address. $config['priority'] = 3; // 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Email Priority. 1 = highest. 5 = lowest. 3 = normal. $config['crlf'] = "\r\n"; // "\r\n" or "\n" or "\r" Newline character. (Use "\r\n" to comply with RFC 822). $config['newline'] = "\r\n"; // "\r\n" or "\n" or "\r" Newline character. (Use "\r\n" to comply with RFC 822). $config['bcc_batch_mode'] = FALSE; // TRUE or FALSE (boolean) Enable BCC Batch Mode. $config['bcc_batch_size'] = 200; // Number of emails in each BCC batch. $this->load->library('email'); $this->email->initialize($config); $this->email->from(' me@gmail.com ', 'Me'); $this->email->reply_to(' me@gmail.com ', 'Me'); $this->email->to(' you@yahoo.com '); $this->email->subject('testing my mail function with CodeIgniter'); $this->email->message('<html><body>this is the content</body></html>'); if ( ! $this->email->send()){ echo 'error! <br />'; // Generate error } echo $this->email->print_debugger(); }
and below the error was shown in my browser:
