PHPMailer has always worked for me on development servers (localhost), as well as on live websites.
Download PHPMailer here, unzip it and put it in your application's directory.
When you want to send a mail, use the following code :
require 'PHPMailerAutoload.php'; //Your path to PHPMailer's directory
$Mail = new PHPMailer();
$Mail->IsSMTP(); // Use SMTP
$Mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // Sets SMTP server for gmail
$Mail->SMTPDebug = 0; // 2 to enable SMTP debug information
$Mail->SMTPAuth = TRUE; // enable SMTP authentication
$Mail->SMTPSecure = "tls"; //Secure conection
$Mail->Port = 587; // set the SMTP port to gmail's port
$Mail->Username = 'yourusername#gmail.com'; // gmail account username
$Mail->Password = 'yourpassword'; // gmail account password
$Mail->Priority = 1; // Highest priority - Email priority (1 = High, 3 = Normal, 5 = low)
$Mail->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
$Mail->Encoding = '8bit';
$Mail->Subject = 'Mail test';
$Mail->ContentType = 'text/html; charset=utf-8\r\n';
$Mail->From = 'test2#gmail.com'; //Your email adress (Gmail overwrites it anyway)
$Mail->FromName = 'Test';
$Mail->WordWrap = 900; // RFC 2822 Compliant for Max 998 characters per line
$Mail->addAddress('test1#gmail.com'); // To: test1#gmail.com
$Mail->isHTML( TRUE );
$Mail->Body = '<b>This is a test mail</b>';
$Mail->AltBody = 'This is a test mail';
$Mail->Send();
$Mail->SmtpClose();
if(!$Mail->send()) {
echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $Mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
echo 'Message has been sent';
Update : You should update your PHP installation for this to work correctly.
For the error you're getting, try this :
In your php.ini search for line
; extension=php_openssl.dll
and remove ; so it becomes:
extension=php_openssl.dll
salem alaykùm (hey)
check this it works for me,
<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == 'POST'){
//print_r($_POST);
if (mail('name#example.com', 'New Test Email', htmlspecialchars($_POST['msg']))){
$cas = "thanks for the msg";
}
}
?>
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head> <title>my test company</title>

I am a newbie in PHP, so all i know is actually from the forums. These are the settings i made in my php.ini file
SMTP=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
sendmail_from = engr.atiq19#gmail.com
sendmail_path = "\"C:\xamppnew\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t"
;sendmail_path = "C:\xamppnew\mailtodisk\mailtodisk.exe"
These are the changes made in sendmail.ini file
smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
error_logfile=error.log
debug_logfile=debug.log
auth_username=engr.atiq19#gmail.com
auth_password=************
force_sender=engr.atiq19#gmail.com
And here is the code I am using to send the mail
$to = "engr.atiq19#gmail.com";
$myemail = "engr.atiq19#gmail.com";
$email_subject = "Contact form submission: $name";
$email_body = "my message";
$headers = "From: $myemail\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $email_address";
mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
header('Location: ../index-alt2.html?t="done successfully"');
I would recommend using PHPMailer to send email from PHP. Here's the steps to accomplish this.
Go to the Github repository.
Download the ZIP.
Extract it in your public_html directory.
include '/path/to/PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php'; at the top of your PHP script.
Get the values from the HTML form like you normally would.
Here's an example...
index.html
<form action="index.php" method="post">
<input type="email" name="email">
<input type="text" name="name">
<input type="text" name="subject">
<input type="text" name="message">
</form>
index.php
include '/path/to/PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$email = $_POST['email'];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'localhost'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'username'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'password'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, "ssl" also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
$mail->setFrom('your email', 'your name'); // from
$mail->addAddress($email, $name); // to
$mail->isHTML(true); // if html
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->Body = $message; //HTML
if($mail->send()){
echo 'Mail sent!';
}
else {
echo 'Mail failed!';
}
here are the details
[php.ini]
SMTP = smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port = 465
sendmail_path = "\"C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t"
mail.add_x_header=Off
[sendmail.ini]
smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=465
smtp_ssl=ssl
error_logfile=error.log
debug_logfile=debug.log
auth_username=[email]#gmail.com
auth_password=[email password]
pop3_server=
pop3_username=
pop3_password=
force_sender=[email]#gmail.com
force_recipient=
hostname=smtp.gmail.com
[mail function]
mail('[email]#gmail.com','sample mail','sample content','From: anotheremail#gmail.com');
i have checked smtp settings properly, but its still not working please suggest.
php.ini
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
;SMTP=localhost
; http://php.net/smtp-port
;smtp_port=25
sendmail_path = C:/xampp/sendmail/sendmail.exe -t

; http://php.net/sendmail-from
;sendmail_from = me#example.com
; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
; http://php.net/sendmail-path
;sendmail_path =
; Force the addition of the specified parameters to be passed as extra parameters
; to the sendmail binary. These parameters will always replace the value of
; the 5th parameter to mail().
;mail.force_extra_parameters =
; Add X-PHP-Originating-Script: that will include uid of the script followed by the filename
mail.add_x_header=On
; The path to a log file that will log all mail() calls. Log entries include
; the full path of the script, line number, To address and headers.
;mail.log =
; Log mail to syslog (Event Log on Windows).
;mail.log = syslog
Working For me.
You have to configure SMTP on your server
You can use the googles free SMTP server Pretty easy to setup too.
<?php
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
//Send mail using gmail
if($send_using_gmail){
$mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl"; // sets the prefix to the servier
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
$mail->Username = "your-gmail-account#gmail.com"; // GMAIL username
$mail->Password = "your-gmail-password"; // GMAIL password
}
//Typical mail data
$mail->AddAddress($email, $name);
$mail->SetFrom($email_from, $name_from);
$mail->Subject = "My Subject";
$mail->Body = "Mail contents";
try{
$mail->Send();
echo "Success!";
} catch(Exception $e){
//Something went bad
echo "Fail :(";
}
?>
You can try below as well.
You can send mail from localhost with sendmail package , sendmail package is inbuild in XAMPP. So if you are using XAMPP then you can easily send mail from localhost.
for example you can configure
C:\xampp\php\php.iniandc:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.ini for gmail to send mail.
in C:\xampp\php\php.ini find extension=php_openssl.dll and remove the semicolon from the beginning of that line to make SSL working for gmail for localhost.
in php.ini file find [mail function] and change
SMTP=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
sendmail_from = test#gmail.com
sendmail_path = "\"C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.exe\" -t"
Now Open C:\xampp\sendmail\sendmail.ini. Replace all the existing code in sendmail.ini with following code
[sendmail]
smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=587
error_logfile=error.log
debug_logfile=debug.log
auth_username=test#gmail.com
auth_password=my-gmail-password
force_sender=test#gmail.com
//mail function
$mail=test#test.com
mail($mail, 'Subject', 'sample mail', 'From: test#axxx.ba');
You should use PHPMailer instead:
download it from here
copy the PHPMailerAutoload.php from the downloaded Zip folder & paste into your directory where you've your contact us page
Then paste the following code in your contact page script:
<?php
require 'PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
//$mail->SMTPDebug = 3; // Enable verbose debug output
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'user#example.com'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'secret'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
$mail->setFrom('from#example.com', 'Mailer');
$mail->addAddress('joe#example.net', 'Joe User'); // Add a recipient
$mail->addAddress('ellen#example.com'); // Name is optional
$mail->addReplyTo('info#example.com', 'Information');
$mail->addCC('cc#example.com');
$mail->addBCC('bcc#example.com');
$mail->addAttachment('/var/tmp/file.tar.gz'); // Add attachments
$mail->addAttachment('/tmp/image.jpg', 'new.jpg'); // Optional name
$mail->isHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = 'Here is the subject';
$mail->Body = 'This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>';
$mail->AltBody = 'This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients';
if(!$mail->send()) {
echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent';
}
Don't forget to change the dummy values
For those who are using Windows and XAMPP, you have to replace the backslash \ with / on your php.ini file. A sample value could be
sendmail_path=C:/xampp/sendmail/sendmail.exe -t -i

PHP mail function doesn't complete sending of e-mail
(31 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
May I know how to send an email from localhost to gmail or other email accounts? I already make research regarding this matter and tried to do it but still can not send the email. Below are my sendmail.ini and php.ini files that I edit,
sendmail.ini
smtp_server=smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port=465
smtp_ssl=ssl

contact.php - to send the email
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submitted'])){
$name=$_POST['name'];
$to=$_POST['email'];
$hp=$_POST['hp'];
$subject="Test";
$msg="Thank you for Register. Your Name is ".$name." and Hp no. is ".$hp;
$header="khairulamran.nazri#gmail.com";
$success=mail($to,$subject,$msg,$header);
if($success==true){
echo "Email send successfully ";
} else{
echo "Error sending email";
}
}
?>
<form name="contact" method="post" action="">
Nama:<input type="text" name="name"><p>
Email:<input type="text" name="email"><p>
Hp:<input type="text" name="hp">
<input type="submit" name="submitted" value="Submit">
</form>
If click Submit, it will not send the email that have been submitted.
Try to use mailer library. I had used and it will work perfectly.
Follow this. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer
You would need to only enter your gmail credentials and after that it will work.
This is the solution for my case. Hope it will be useful if someone need information regarding this case as well.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submitted'])){
$name=$_POST['name'];
$to=$_POST['email'];
$hp=$_POST['hp'];
require '../PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'myemail#gmail.com'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'mypassword'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
$mail->setFrom('khairulamran.nazri#gmail.com', 'Amran');
$mail->addAddress($to); // Name is optional
$mail->addReplyTo('khairulamran.nazri#gmail.com', 'Information');
$mail->isHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = 'Test Email';
$mail->Body = 'Body of message goes here';
$mail->AltBody = 'Body of message goes here<for non html mail client>';

echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {

class mailer {
public function send_request_mail($to, $msg) {
$from="abcd#xyz.com";
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n".'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n".'From: ' . $from . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $from . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion ();
$message = "ip 192.168.0.9:9035";
$subject = "subject";
mail ( $to, $subject, $message, $headers );
}
}
$mail=new mailer();
$mail->send_request_mail("abcd#xyz.com", "msg");
?>
sometimes its works(for some messages).when i try to send an ip address like above,it fails.help me
Hope you are doing Well.
PHP must be configured correctly in the php.ini file with the details of how your system sends email. Open php.ini file available in /etc/ directory and find the section headed [mail function].
Windows users should ensure that two directives are supplied. The first is called SMTP that defines your email server address. The second is called sendmail_from which defines your own email address.
The configuration for Windows should look something like this:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = smtp.secureserver.net
; For win32 only
sendmail_from = webmaster#tutorialspoint.com
Linux users simply need to let PHP know the location of their sendmail application. The path and any desired switches should be specified to the sendmail_path directive.
The configuration for Linux should look something like this:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP =
; For win32 only
sendmail_from =
; For Unix only
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
PHP makes use of mail() function to send an email. This function requires three mandatory arguments that specify the recipient's email address, the subject of the the message and the actual message additionally there are other two optional parameters.
mail( to, subject, message, headers, parameters );
Example:
Following example will send an HTML email message to xyz#somedomain.com copying it to afgh#somedomain.com. You can code this program in such a way that it should recieve all content from the user and then it should send an email.
<html>
<head>
<title>Sending HTML email using PHP</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$to = "xyz#somedomain.com";
$subject = "This is subject";
$message = "<b>This is HTML message.</b>";
$message .= "<h1>This is headline.</h1>";
$header = "From:abc#somedomain.com \r\n";
$header = "Cc:afgh#somedomain.com \r\n";
$header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$header .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";
$retval = mail ($to,$subject,$message,$header);
if( $retval == true )
{
echo "Message sent successfully...";
}
else
{
echo "Message could not be sent...";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
Hope this will be usefull to you !!! Cheers !!
Waiting for your positive comments !!!
You may want to use something like PHPMailer because there is a good chance your email will end up in spam or junk box when you use mail() function.
Here is a sample code using PHPMailer,
<?php
require 'PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
//$mail->SMTPDebug = 3; // Enable verbose debug output
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'user#example.com'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'secret'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
$mail->From = 'abcd#xyz.com';
$mail->FromName = 'Mailer';
$mail->addAddress('joe#example.net', 'Joe User'); // Add a recipient
$mail->addAddress('ellen#example.com'); // Name is optional
$mail->addReplyTo('info#example.com', 'Information');
$mail->addCC('cc#example.com');
$mail->addBCC('bcc#example.com');
$mail->WordWrap = 50; // Set word wrap to 50 characters
$mail->isHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = 'Here is the subject';
$mail->Body = 'ip 192.168.0.9:9035';
if(!$mail->send()) {
echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent';
}
I have used following settings in joomla -adminpanel- global configuration-server

if(!$mail->send()) {
echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent';
}
?>
I have searched and worked accordingly but not in use.As am new to these coding please help me to understand this issue
This happens when sendmail is not installed on your server (sendmail should be under /usr/sbin ). You will need to install sendmail or use an alternative, such as gmail (you can use gmail using the phpmailer class.
Thanks for all your suggestions.I have sorted out the problem a day before.
Problem is sendmail option is not available in that server, I have tried for SMTP with wrong port no(25) previously.587 is port no for the mail server.
BY USING SMTP with all their configuration settings i done through it.
