PHPMailer not working on 000webhost

问题

This code seems to work in Xampp on my mac localhost but it doesn't seem to work on my free 000webhost account. I already tried getting rid of SSL but it didn't help. Keep in mind that this program get variables from an external form.

 <?php
    $subject = htmlentities($_POST['subject']);
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $message = htmlentities($_POST['message']);




    require_once 'PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';

    $m = new PHPMailer;

    $m->isSMTP();
    $m->SMTPAuth = true;
    //$m->SMTPDebug = 1;
    $m->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
    $m->Username = 'email-adress@gmail.com';
    $m->Password = 'password';
    $m->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
    $m->Port = 465;

    $m->From = 'email-adress@gmail.com';
    $m->FromName = 'William Green';
    $m->addReplyTo('email-adress@gmail.com', 'William Green');

    //$m->addCC('email2-address@gmail.com', 'Willliam green');


    ########################################
    //email code
    //$recipient = strip_tags($_POST['mailRecipient']);
    //$name = strip_tags($_POST['recipientsName']);


    $m->addAddress($email, $email);



    //$m->Subject = strip_tags($_POST['mailSubject']);
    //$m->Body = strip_tags($_POST['mailBody']);
    $m->Subject = $subject;
    $m->Body = $message;


   //$m->AltBody = 'plain text version!';


    ###########################################





    //var_dump($m->send());
    if ($m->send())
    {
    echo '<h1 class="good">Email Sent!</h1>';
    }
    else
    {
    echo '<h1 class="bad">Email Not Sent!</h1>';
    }


    ?>

A: They do not offer SMTP for free hosting. Use PHP's mail() function instead.

Notice the red x next to SMTP Server on their site => http://www.000webhost.com/ ?

Either use mail() or pay for it in order to use SMTP.

You can do it on their website, or upgrade from within the control panel.

Edit (Sept. 16, 2016): This answer was posted before they revamped their website. The URL where you can see the available options for free/paid services, can be see here https://www.000webhost.com/premium-web-hosting

This also goes for remote connections to a database.

This answer was edited in regards to a question I saw today which was related to my edit.
