CodeIgniter not sending emails with SMTP

votes

I am using my domain details for sending the emails with CodeIgniter SMTP, but emails are not going. This is my settings:

 $full_name =  'xxx';
 $from = $email = '[email protected]';
 $configs = Array(
      'protocol' => 'smtp',
      'smtp_host' => 'mail.manazelspecialists.ae',
      'smtp_port' => 587,
      'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
      'smtp_pass' => 'xxxx',
      'mailtype' => 'html',
      'charset' => 'iso-8859-1',
      'wordwrap' => TRUE
    );

$this->load->library('email', $configs);
$this->email->initialize($configs);

$msg = '<html><body>';
$msg.= 'msg here';
$msg.= '</body></html>';

$this->email->set_newline("\r\n");
$this->email->subject('Career Form Filled');
$this->email->from($from,$full_name);
$this->email->reply_to(REPLY_TO);
$this->email->to('[email protected]');
$this->email->message($msg);
$this->email->send();

and I am receiving this error: Failed to send AUTH LOGIN command. Error: Unable to send email using PHP SMTP. Your server might not be configured to send mail using this method.

Are you trying this code with your localhost or with live server? - Himanshu Upadhyay

I am trying this on live server, with smtp.googlemail.com its working - dev

Possible duplicate of how to configure SMTP in codeigniter application? - Abdal Asif

@dev, With googlemail.com you would be using port 'smtp_port' => 465? - Himanshu Upadhyay

Yes @HimanshuUpadhyay - dev

change one line in the config array and try

 $configs = Array(
      'protocol' => 'smtp',
      'smtp_host' => 'ssl://mail.manazelspecialists.ae',//change here
      'smtp_port' => 587,
      'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
      'smtp_pass' => 'xxxx',
      'mailtype' => 'html',
      'charset' => 'iso-8859-1',
      'wordwrap' => TRUE
    );

I think nothing is wrong with the code. You need to make sure to set up the right configs of your mail server.

Try to change smtp_port to 25

$config = Array();

 $config['protocol']        = 'smtp';
 $config['smtp_host']       = 'mocha4004.mochahost.com';
 $config['smtp_port']       = '25';
 $config['smtp_user']       = '[email protected]';
 $config['smtp_pass']       = 'ankit123';
 $config['mailtype']        = 'html';
 $config['charset']         = 'iso-8859-1';
 $config['wordwrap']        = TRUE;

you can try my example

public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
    $this->load->library('email');
    $this->load->model('email_model');
}


public function emails()
{

    $data['emails']=$this->email_model->get_records_of_chats_with_clients();
    $this->load->view('templates/head', $data);
    $this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
    $this->load->view('email/view_emails', $data);
    $this->load->view('templates/footer');


}
public function create()
{
    $data['privileges'] = $this->email_model->get_privileges();

    $this->form_validation->set_rules('privilege', 'privilege', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('from_name', 'from_name', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('from_email', 'from_email', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('to_email', 'to_email', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('title', 'title', 'required');

    if($this->form_validation->run() === FALSE){
        $this->load->view('templates/head', $data);
        $this->load->view('templates/header', $data);
        $this->load->view('email/create_email', $data);
        $this->load->view('templates/footer');
    } else {
    $this->email_model->record_chats_with_clients();
    redirect('email/emails');
    }

}
public function kurti(){
    $data['privileges'] = $this->email_model->get_privileges();
    $email_to=$this->input->post('to_email');
    $name_input=$this->input->post('name');
    $name_session=$this->session->userdata('name');
    $title=$this->input->post('title');
    $message=$this->input->post('message');
    if(!isset($name_input)){
        $name=$name_session;
    } else{
        $name=$name_input;
    }

    $this->email->from('[email protected]', $name);
    $this->email->to($email_to);
    $this->email->subject($title);
    $this->email->message($message);
    $config = array(
        'protocol' => 'smtp',
        'smtp_host' => 'example.serveriai.lt',
        'smtp_port' => 587,
        'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
        'smtp_pass' => 'example',
        'mailtype'  => 'html',
        'charset'   => 'iso-8859-1'
    );
    $this->email->set_mailtype("html");
    $this->load->library('email', $config);

    $this->form_validation->set_rules('to_email', 'Gavėjo adresas', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('title', 'Gavėjo žinutės tema', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('message', 'Žinutė', 'required');

    if($this->form_validation->run() === FALSE){
        $this->load->view('templates/head');
        $this->load->view('templates/header');
        $this->load->view('email/index', $data);
        $this->load->view('templates/footer');
    } elseif ($this->email->send()) {
        $this->email_model->record_chats_with_clients($name);
        $message = "success";
        echo '
        <script type="text/javascript">alert(\''.$message.'\');
        window.location = \'/email/emails\';</script>';
    }
    else
    {
        if ($this->session->userdata('admin'=='1')){
            show_error($this->email->print_debugger());

        } else{
            $message = "error!";
            echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('$message');</script>";
        }

    }
}
