Sending mail with CodeIgniter using SMTP protocol not working

问题

I have a problem in sending mails using CI. I used the "sendmail" protocol to send mail but it is being filtered as spam. I used the SMTP protocol to solve the problem, but it's not getting sent.

My code is as follows:

$config = Array(
    'protocol' => 'smtp',
    'smtp_host' => 'ssl://smtp.googlemail.com',
    'smtp_port' => 465,
    'smtp_user' => '*******@gmail.com',
    'smtp_pass' => '********',
    'mailtype'  => 'html',
    'charset'   => 'iso-8859-1'
);

$this->load->library('email', $config);
$this->email->set_newline("\r\n");
$message = "test mail";
$this->email->set_newline("\r\n");
$this->email->from('dsiddharth2@gmail.com', 'St. Maries');
$this->email->to("dsiddharth2@gmail.com");
$this->email->subject('Contact - St. Marians Belguam');
$this->email->message($message);
if($this->email->send())
{
    echo "mail sent successfully";
}
else
{
    show_error($this->email->print_debugger());
}

When I send the email using "smtp" protocol in CI, I get the following error:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to ssl://smtp.googlemail.com:465 (Connection timed out)

Filename: libraries/Email.php

Line Number: 1673

and other list of errors...

I asked the server admin to enable the "openssl". It's been already taken care of and is enabled.

If you want to try it out, please visit this link and check for yourself.

回答1:

If it's not working, check your php.ini file. Change this line

;extension=php_openssl.dll

to

extension=php_openssl.dll

It means remove the comment from the line in php.ini file.
