I have inherited a website for a client which was built using zend framework 2. I have figured out how to move it to my host which is great however one issue remains and that is the email contact form. When sending an email via the contact form i get the following error. I suspect its a config area but having not used this system before i wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction of fixing this error.

Website

contact form page

Update 19-MAR-17

I found the config here:

/vendor/acelaya/zf2-acmailer/config

There 2 files there

module.config.php & mail.global.php.dist

The mail.global.php.dist seems to have some config optoins which i tried but dont appear to help. I need to set it up to use the following imap settings:

Setting IMAP
Incoming Server imap.1and1.co.uk
Port with SSL enabled 993
Outgoing Server (SMTP) auth.smtp.1and1.co.uk
Outgoing port with TLS enabled 587
Outgoing server requires authentication
(user name and password)? Yes

Could you please provide details (especially your configuration for ZF-Acmailer : github.com/acelaya/ZF-AcMailer (my guess is that your smtp details are wrong (like the host does not exist or is unreachable from your deployment machine, so we won't be able to help more)Thomas Dutrion
Thanks for your reply Thomas, I have updated the post above with all the info i could findPhyzikal87

So basically, Zend Framework 2/3 will load any configuration file in config/autoload/.local.php and config/autoload/.global.php (global first, local then, so the local can override the global ones).

In your case, you'd need to remove the .dist from your file, and put the settings you've given me in. Actually, you should even set the settings in a local file as it depends on your environment.

In case anyone sees this and has the same issue the real problem was this:

wrong: 'mail_adapter' => 'Zend\Mail\Transport\smtp',

Correct: 'mail_adapter' => 'Zend\Mail\Transport\Sendmail',

1and1 uses sendmail instead of smtp.

For 1and1 you need these settings:

'server' => 'auth.smtp.1and1.co.uk',

'ssl' => 'tls',

'connection_class' => 'smtp',

'port' => 587,

The username is your email and the other settings speak for themselves.

Thanks again to Thomas for helping me in the right direction. I spent the best part of 4 days researching for this problem so i hope this finds anyone else who needs it.

Cheers
