Unable to send email using core php - php

Question

I'am newbie in php. I'am trying to send email using php but I don't know what's wrong in my code. I googled a lot but nothing has worked yet. Here is my php code. I'am using class.phpmailer.php.
<?php
require("phpmailer-master/class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP
IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "myemail#googlemail.com"; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "mypassword"; // SMTP password
$webmaster_email = "recipient#googlemail.com"; //Reply to this email ID
$email="username#domain.com"; // Recipients email ID
$name="myname"; // Recipient's name
$mail->From = $webmaster_email;
$mail->FromName = "Webmaster";
$mail->AddAddress($email,$name);
$mail->AddReplyTo($webmaster_email,"Webmaster");
$mail->WordWrap = 50; // set word wrap
$mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz"); // attachment
$mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg"); // attachment
$mail->IsHTML(true); // send as HTML
$mail->Subject = "This is the subject";
$mail->Body = "Hi,
This is the HTML BODY "; //HTML Body
$mail->AltBody = "This is the body when user views in plain text format"; //Text Body
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>

Answer 1

I could finally send a mail using php. Here is the code:
<?php
require_once('class.phpmailer.php');
include("class.smtp.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->CharSet="UTF-8";
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->Username = 'sender#mail.com';
$mail->Password = 'sender_password';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->From = 'sender#mail.com';
$mail->FromName = 'sender';
$mail->AddAddress("sender#mail.com");
$mail->AddReplyTo("sender#mail.com", 'Information');
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "Sample exmple to check proper working of mail function";
$mail->AltBody = "To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!";
$mail->Body = "Hello ";
$path = $_POST['upload'];
$mail->AddAttachment($path); // attachment
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message sent!";
}
?>

<?php
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP
// Comment out this line here it is wrong
// IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "username#gmail.com"; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "password"; // SMTP password
$webmaster_email = "username#doamin.com"; //Reply to this email ID
$email = "username#domain.com"; // Recipients email ID
$name = "name"; // Recipient's name
$mail->From = $webmaster_email;
$mail->FromName = "Webmaster";
$mail->AddAddress($email, $name);
$mail->AddReplyTo($webmaster_email, "Webmaster");
$mail->WordWrap = 50; // set word wrap
// i would also comment out these lines, get it working without attachments first
// then add then back in after (if you want attachments)
// $mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz"); // attachment
// $mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg"); // attachment
$mail->IsHTML(true); // send as HTML
$mail->Subject = "This is the subject";
$mail->Body = "Hi,
This is the HTML BODY "; //HTML Body
$mail->AltBody = "This is the body when user views in plain text format"; //Text Body
if (!$mail->Send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message has been sent";
}
// at the end of the pasted code above, you have these lines (below here) doubled up.
// remove them
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}
?>
