so i have been working with gmail and using php mailer and it was working fine.
i tried to do the same with yahoo mail but it doent seem to work.
i have tried various ports and settings but it isnt working.
here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
<title>PHPMailer - GMail SMTP test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
//SMTP needs accurate times, and the PHP time zone MUST be set
//This should be done in your php.ini, but this is how to do it if you don't have access to that
date_default_timezone_set('Etc/UTC');
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.mail.yahoo.com';
//Set the SMTP port number - 587 for authenticated TLS, a.k.a. RFC4409 SMTP submission
$mail->Port = 587; //995 and 465 port tried but not working
//Set the encryption system to use - ssl (deprecated) or tls
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tsl';//only ssl tried not working
//Whether to use SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//Username to use for SMTP authentication - use full email address for gmail
$mail->Username = "[email protected]";
//Password to use for SMTP authentication
$mail->Password = "sender_pass";
//Set who the message is to be sent from
$mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'sender_name');
//Set who the message is to be sent to
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'receiver_name');
//Set the subject line
$mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer YMail SMTP test';
$mail->msgHTML(file_get_contents('phpmailer/examples/contents.html'), dirname(__FILE__));
$mail->AltBody = 'This is a plain-text message body';
$mail->addAttachment('phpmailer/examples/images/phpmailer_mini.png');
//send the message, check for errors
if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
and i get the following error:
SERVER -> CLIENT: 220 smtp.mail.yahoo.com ESMTP ready
CLIENT -> SERVER: EHLO localhost
CLIENT -> SERVER: AUTH LOGIN
SERVER -> CLIENT: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first
CLIENT -> SERVER: QUIT
SERVER -> CLIENT: 221 2.0.0 Bye
SMTP connect() failed.
Mailer Error: SMTP connect() failed.
The correct is tls, you have a spell mistake:
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'
