Problem with SMTP authentication in PHP using PHPMailer, with Pear Mail works

Evandro picture Evandro · Aug 5, 2009 · Viewed 118.6k times · Source

I´m having trouble sending a e-mail with the PHPMailer class, but it works with PEAR Mail::factory.

I guess the problem is with the SMTP authentication, but I couldn´t find the problem.

The code with problem is:

<?php
require("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsSMTP();       // set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'mail.xxx.com.br';  // my host here
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;     // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = '[email protected]';  // a valid email here
$mail->Password = '***';  // the password from email
$mail->From = '[email protected]';
$mail->SMTPDebug = true;
$mail->AddReplyTo('[email protected]', 'Test');

$mail->FromName = 'Test SMTP';
$mail->AddAddress('[email protected]', '[email protected]');

$mail->Subject = 'Test SMTP';
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Body = '<b>Teste</b><br><h1>teste 2</h1>';   
//$mail->Send();

if(!$mail->Send())
{
   echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
   echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
   exit;
}

?>

The code with PEAR that works is:

<?php
include('Mail.php');
include('Mail/mime.php');

$text = 'Versao em texto';
$html = '<html><body>Versao de email em <b>HTML</b></body></html>';
$crlf = "\n";
$hdrs = array(
              'From'    => '[email protected]',
              'Subject' => 'Test  - mail.php'
              );

$mime = new Mail_mime($crlf);

$mime->setTXTBody($text);
$mime->setHTMLBody($html);

$body = $mime->get();
$hdrs = $mime->headers($hdrs);

$mail = Mail::factory('smtp',
  array ('host' => 'mail.xxx.com.br',
    'debug'=> true,
    'auth' => true,
    'username' => '[email protected]',
    'password' => '***'));

$mail->send('[email protected]', $hdrs, $body);
?>

When I run the code with problem with debug activated (SMTPDebug = True) I got:
