phpMailer will not connect using SMTP

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I am trying to use phpMailer with smtp:

Code: [Select]$mailer = new PHPMailer();
$mailer->IsSMTP();
$mailer->Mailer = "smtp";
$mailer->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mailer->Host = 'smtp.orangehome.co.uk';
$mailer->Port = 25;
$mailer->SMTPAuth = false;
$mailer->Username = 'mail@domain.com';
$mailer->Password = 'password';
$mailer->From = 'mail@domain.com';
$mailer->FromName = 'Me';
$mailer->Body = 'This is the main body of the email';
$mailer->Subject = 'This is the subject of the email';
$mailer->AddAddress('you@domain.com');
if(!$mailer->Send())
{
echo "Message was not sent<br/ >";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mailer->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}

I have also tried with googlemail:

Code: [Select]$mailer = new PHPMailer();
$mailer->IsSMTP();
$mailer->Mailer = "smtp";
$mailer->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
$mailer->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$mailer->Port = 465;
$mailer->SMTPAuth = TRUE;
$mailer->Username = 'mail@domain.com';
$mailer->Password = 'password';
$mailer->From = 'mail@domain.com';
$mailer->FromName = 'Me';
$mailer->Body = 'This is the main body of the email';
$mailer->Subject = 'This is the subject of the email';
$mailer->AddAddress('you@domain.com');
if(!$mailer->Send())
{
echo "Message was not sent<br/ >";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mailer->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}


but I get this error message:

Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to smtp.orangehome.co.uk:25 (Connection timed out) ...

or the equivalent for gmail

Is there something I'm missing?
