I have this source code and it works well, but I want to send emails by date
such as
(Today date == date from DB)
{
Code send
}
How can I send it automatically, I don't want to reload the page.
My source code:
`<`?php
include "classes/class.phpmailer.php"; // include the class name
$mail = new PHPMailer(); // create a new object
$mail->IsSMTP(); // enable SMTP
$mail->SMTPDebug = 1; // debugging: 1 = errors and messages, 2 = messages only
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // authentication enabled
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl'; // secure transfer enabled REQUIRED for GMail
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->Port = 465; // or 587
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Username = "gmailusername#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "**********";
$mail->SetFrom("anyemail#gmail.com");
$mail->Subject = "Your Gmail SMTP Mail";
$mail->Body = "<b>Hi</b>";
$mail->AddAddress("anyaddrees#domain.com");
if(!$mail->Send()){
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else{
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
you could use Task scheduler on windows or cronjob on linux. Also as "Jan" said in the comment could you please provide more info.

SMTP connect() failed PHPmailer - PHP
(17 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I'm a beginner in php so I had written code for testing which will send an email using php.
I'm using "PHPMailer-5.2.27" to sent email with SMTP on php, but when I run the code the email not sent. I don't know what is the problem. Can anyone help me out!
<?php
require 'phpmailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "example#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "xxxxxxxx";
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->Subject = "test mail";
$mail->Body = "just a test";
$mail->setFrom('example#gmail.com','aaaa');
$mail->addAddress('example#gmail.com');
if ($mail->send())
echo "mail is sent";
else
echo "something wrong ";
?>
Assuming you have allowed your Gmail account to authorize the server from where you are sending an email.
use $mail->ErrorInfo; in order to debug your issue, this will clarify what is the actual failure reason for sending an email you can refer the below code I have shared.
<?php
require "PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php";
echo !extension_loaded('openssl')?"Not Available":"Available"; //check openssl is available or not
$mail = new PHPMailer(); // create a new object
$mail->IsSMTP(); // enable SMTP
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // debugging: 1 = errors and messages, 2 = messages only
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // authentication enabled
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl'; // secure transfer enabled REQUIRED for Gmail
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->Port = 465; // or 587
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Username = "mygmailaccount#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "**********";
$mail->SetFrom("example#gmail.com");
$mail->Subject = "Test";
$mail->Body = "hello";
$mail->AddAddress("toaddress#gmail.com");
if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
I am trying following code to send mail
but it is showing
Message could not be sent.Mailer Error: SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting
and gmail is informing me that Sign-in attempt prevented
<?php
require 'PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = 'sss#gmail.com';
$mail->Password = '*******';
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->From = 'abc#gmail.com';
$mail->FromName = 'asdf ';
$mail->addAddress('abc#gmail.com', 'sadf ');
$mail->WordWrap = 50;
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "Using PHPMailer";
$mail->Body = "Hi Iam using PHPMailer library to sent SMTP mail from localhost";
if(!$mail->send()) {
echo "Message could not be sent.";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
echo "Message has been sent";
?>
How to resolve above problem?
Try the following steps:
enable debug mode to catch possible errors
$mail->SMTPDebug = 1;
enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
also check for SSL support in php configuration file (php.ini)
extension=php_openssl.dll
You need set permission for send mail with gmail.
- Login Google Account
- Go Privacy Page
- Allow third party apps
After try this code:
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$body = file_get_contents('contents.html');
$body = eregi_replace("[\]",'',$body);
$mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP
$mail->Host = "mail.yourdomain.com"; // SMTP server
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // enables SMTP debug information (for testing)
// 1 = errors and messages
// 2 = messages only
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = "tls"; // sets the prefix to the servier
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port = 587; // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
$mail->Username = "yourusername#gmail.com"; // GMAIL username
$mail->Password = "yourpassword"; // GMAIL password
$mail->SetFrom('name#yourdomain.com', 'First Last');
$mail->AddReplyTo("name#yourdomain.com","First Last");
$mail->Subject = "PHPMailer Test Subject via smtp (Gmail), basic";
$mail->AltBody = "To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!"; // optional, comment out and test
$mail->MsgHTML($body);
$address = "whoto#otherdomain.com";
$mail->AddAddress($address, "John Doe");
if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
Since you are getting email from Google, it describes the email is trying to send but it is blocked by Google. Do the following steps.
I hope this helps.
Check if IMAP is enabled
Check here and enable less secure apps
Display Unlock Captcha
change the following in your code
isSMTP() to IsSMTP() , addAddress() to AddAddress() & isHTML() to IsHTML().
and yes check the ports also. sometoimes port also off which do not let connection to be established.
Hope it will work!
I think you have to enable POP and IMAP in you gamil. Try this
Sign in to Gmail
Click the gear in the top right.
Select Settings.
Click Forwarding and POP/IMAP.
Select Enable IMAP.
Click Save Changes.
<?
$account="email_address#gmail.com";
$password="accountpassword";
$to="mail#subinsb.com";
$from="email_address#gmail.com";
$from_name="Name";
$msg="<strong>This is a bold text.</strong>"; // HTML message
$subject="Database Backup";
/*End Config*/
include("phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->SMTPAuth= true;
$mail->Port = 465; // Or 587
$mail->Username= $account;
$mail->Password= $password;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
$mail->From = $from;
$mail->FromName= $from_name;
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->Body = $msg;
$mail->addAddress($to);
if(!$mail->send()){
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}else{
echo "E-Mail has been sent";
}
?>
can someone help me to find what is wrong with the following code that i used to send mail in php.
error_reporting(E_STRICT);
date_default_timezone_set('asia/kolkata');
require_once('class.phpmailer.php');
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->SMTPDebug = 1;
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Username = "manikandan#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "mypassword";
$mail->From = ("manikandan#gmail.com");
$mail->SetFrom("manikandan");
$mail->Subject = "Test";
$mail->Body = "hello";
$mail->AddAddress("peter1991#gmail.com");
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
i am getting the following error:- 2015-01-05 04:32:10 Invalid address: manikandan
i am using php 5.2.2 ,Apache 2.0 Handler in windows.
setFrom expects an email address as the first parameter. Try:
$mail->setFrom('manikandan#gmail.com');
If you also want to set a proper name, use the second parameter
$mail->setFrom('manikandan#gmail.com', 'John Smith');
http://phpmailer.github.io/PHPMailer/classes/PHPMailer.html#method_setFrom
Also, I think you should be using the autoloader instead of including the PHPMailer class directly.
try this:
$mail->setFrom('manikandan#gmail.com', 'manikandan'); //setFrom expect email
Full code:
<?php require 'PHPmailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
//Create a new PHPMailer instance
$mail = new PHPMailer();
//Tell PHPMailer to use SMTP
$mail->IsSMTP();
//Enable SMTP debugging
// 0 = off (for production use)
// 1 = client messages
// 2 = client and server messages
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2;
//Ask for HTML-friendly debug output
$mail->Debugoutput = 'html';
//Set the hostname of the mail server
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
//Set the SMTP port number - 587 for authenticated TLS, a.k.a. RFC4409 SMTP submission
$mail->Port = 465;
//Set the encryption system to use - ssl (deprecated) or tls
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
//Whether to use SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//Username to use for SMTP authentication - use full email address for gmail
$mail->Username = "manikandan#gmail.com";
//Password to use for SMTP authentication
$mail->Password = "mypassword";
//Set who the message is to be sent from
$mail->setFrom('manikandan#gmail.com', 'manikandan');
//Set an alternative reply-to address
$mail->addReplyTo('peter1991#gmail.com', 'peter');
//Set who the message is to be sent to
$mail->addAddress('peter1991#gmail.com', 'peter1991');
//Set the subject line
$mail->Subject = 'Test';
//Read an HTML message body from an external file, convert referenced images to embedded,
//convert HTML into a basic plain-text alternative body
$mail->Body = "Hi ,! Welcome to PHP mail function. \n\n .";
//Replace the plain text body with one created manually
$mail->AltBody = 'This is a plain-text message body';
//Attach an image file
//$mail->addAttachment('images/phpmailer_mini.gif');
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//send the message, check for errors
if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
?>
To resolved this just turn on access for less secure app in your google account. Hope this helps.

If you are using PHP Mailer from Github,
then you can set the Sender name by,
$mail->SetFrom("info#mibckerala.org", "MIBC");
I'm trying to configure PHPMailer I've uploaded 1 file which is class.phpmailer.php and created another php file with this content:
<?php
require('class.phpmailer.php');
$mail = new PHPMailer(); // create a new object
$mail->IsSMTP(); // enable SMTP
$mail->SMTPDebug = 1; // debugging: 1 = errors and messages, 2 = messages only
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // authentication enabled
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl'; // secure transfer enabled REQUIRED for GMail
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
$mail->Port = 465; // or 587
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Username = "myemail#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "mypassword";
$mail->SetFrom("the same email address");
$mail->Subject = "Test";
$mail->Body = "hello";
$mail->AddAddress("the same email address");
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
and i get nothing at all not a success message nor a failure message. http://www.mawk3y.net/mailtest/test.php
all answers are outdated now. Most current version (as of Feb 2018) does not have autoload anymore, and PHPMailer should be initialized as follows:
<?php
include_once(FCPATH.'PHPMailer/src/PHPMailer.php');
include_once(FCPATH.'PHPMailer/src/SMTP.php');
include_once(FCPATH.'PHPMailer/src/Exception.php');
$msj="My complete message";
$mail = new PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // enable SMTP
$mail->SMTPDebug = 1; // debugging: 1 = errors and messages, 2 = messages only
//authentication SMTP enabled
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl'; // secure transfer enabled REQUIRED for Gmail
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
//indico el puerto que usa Gmail 465 or 587
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->Username = "xxxxxx";
$mail->Password = "xxxx";
$mail->SetFrom("xxxxxx#xxxxx.com","Name");
$mail->AddReplyTo("xxx#xxx.com","Name Replay");
$mail->Subject = "Test";
$mail->MsgHTML($msj);
$mail->AddAddress("xxxxxx#xxxxx.com");
if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
The problem is with the require method.
You first have to extract all file of phpMailer repository.
instead of writing
require('class.phpmailer.php');
you need to include path where your PHPMailerAutoload.php file extracted.so you can replace it with.
require('path-of-extracted-folder/PHPMailerAutoload.php');
for more reference you can visit it's GitHub link
https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer
I had same problem but I solved.This is the way I code
<?php
require 'PHPMailer-master/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
//Create a new PHPMailer instance
$mail = new PHPMailer;
// Set PHPMailer to use the sendmail transport
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'abc#gmail.com'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'abc'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
//Set who the message is to be sent from
$mail->setFrom('abc1#gmail.com', 'First Last');
//Set an alternative reply-to address
//Set who the message is to be sent to
$mail->addAddress('abc#gmail.com', 'Shehan');
//Set the subject line
$mail->Subject = 'Test Mail';
$mail->Body = 'This is Test Mail';
//send the message, check for errors
if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
?>
