CodeIgniter unable to send email using PHP mail()

Question

I\'m trying to send an e-mail with Codeigniter like this:

$this->load->library(\'email\');

$this->email->from(\"myemail@email.com\");
$this->         


        

Answer 1

Clearly, there does not seem to be a definitive 'one size fits all' answer. What worked for me was changing

$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';

TO:

$config['protocol'] = 'mail';

Hope this helps...
