PHP - Smtp Error: Could Not Connect To Smtp Host. Mailer Error: Smtp Error: Could Not

Hi guys

I am a newbie with PHP and I have been trying to solve this problem for 3 days..

Ive set up a booking form on my website to be sent directly to my email once the client clicked on the send button..
The problem I am having while checking these pages on wamp is that the booking form is ok but when I click on the send button the following message error appears
"Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\wamp\www\fluffy_paws\booking_form2.php on line 27"

When I check online I have this message "500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed."

Are my codes wrong???

My webhosting is Blacknight.com , Im on Windows Vista, my internet is a dongle with O2 ireland

Thanks for your help!

Whenever i send emails via SMTP the reciever recieved it with Name 'ROOT  USER'...

I want to know How to change it to my Name..... What should i do for that...

And also what should i do if i want to embed an image in the message.....

It would be great if you provide me some link for styling the SMTP mail...

Thanx...

hello, im running my page on a seperate server than my exchange server.  how would i set the smtp server in the following:

Code: [Select]
<?php
$to = "mike@domain.com";
$subject = "Test mail";
$message = "Hello! This is a simple email message.";
$from = "mike@domain.com";
$headers = "From: $from";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "Mail Sent.";
?>

I am using Gmail as my mail server in my website. Im not having problems sending emails to my clients but my only problem is that Gmail and other mail servers like yahoo, hotmail, etc. can't detect php scripts? What am i going to do? How can I pass values that I will send to them.

Hello,

Something that's been really bugging me the last days is a problem in PHP, the mail(); function, so here goes.

First, my script:

Code: [Select]
$to = "valid@hotmail.com";
$subject ="contact form";
$body = "Hello, you have been contacted";
$from = "$_POST['email'];
$headers = 'From : valid@hotmail.com'."\r\n".'Reply-To: valid@hotmail.com';
if (mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers)) {
echo "worked";
} else {
echo "didn't work";
}

I'm using Ubuntu linux and have set up an SMTP server like so:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install postfix
And configured it.

I have also forwarded TCP port 25 to the server.

Problem: I run the script and it echos 'worked', meaning that there was no error. However, I don't get a mail sent into my inbox.   

Thanks in advance,
Drmota

Hi,

Can someone please post very straight forward lines for sending email (no attachment nothing, just a subject and one line text in body) using google smtp (ssl://smtp.gmail.com) without any help of some classes like PHPmailer?

Thanks,

Does any know how to set SMTP Mail Configuration using the gmail account?

I'm having a rough time getting an AS3 application working with a PHP script.

The PHP script takes POST variables and then sends an email using SMTP.

When running it through a standard HTML form, the PHP side works perfectly.

However, when I send the exact same POST variables through AS3 to the script, I get this error.

Failed to set sender: phpemailtesting@gmail.com [SMTP: Failed to write to socket: not connected (code: -1, response: )]

So, I'm not really sure what the issue is here... Here's some code that might help.

//print_r($_POST);
require_once('Mail-1.2.0/Mail.php');

$from = isset($_POST['emailfrom']) ? $_POST['emailfrom'] : '';
$to = isset($_POST['emailsubject']) ? $_POST['emailto'] : '';
$bcc = isset($_POST['bcc'])? $_POST['bcc'] : '';
$subject = isset($_POST['emailsubject']) ? $_POST['emailsubject'] : '';
$body = isset($_POST['emailbody']) ? $_POST['emailbody'] : '';
$ssl = isset($_POST['ssl']) ? $_POST['ssl'].'://' : '';
$smtp_server = isset($_POST['smtpserver']) ? $_POST['smtpserver'] : '';
$password = isset($_POST['emailpassword']) ? $_POST['emailpassword'] : '';
$port = isset($_POST['port']) ? $_POST['port'] : '';
$success_counter = 0;
$fail_counter = 0;
$bigerror;

if($from!='' && $to!='' && $subject!='' && $body!='' && $smtp_server!='' && $password!='' && $port!='') {
if($bcc!='') {
$bcc_array = explode(',',$bcc);
}
$host = $ssl . $smtp_server;
$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp', array('host'=>$host, 'port'=>$port, 'auth'=>true, 'username'=>$from, 'password'=>$password));

$header = array('From'=>$from, 'To'=>$to, 'Subject'=>$subject);
$mail = $smtp->send($to, $header, $body);

        if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
$bigerror = $mail->getMessage();
$fail_counter++;
           //echo("<p>Message failed".$to." :<br />" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
        } else {
$success_counter++;
         //echo("<p>Message successfully sent to <b>". $to ."</b>!</p>");
        }

for($counter=0; $counter<count($bcc_array) && $counter<=99; $counter++) {
$header = array('From'=>$from, 'To'=>$bcc_array[$counter], 'Subject'=>$subject);
$mail = $smtp->send($bcc_array[$counter], $header, $body);

if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
$bigerror = $mail->getMessage();
//echo("<p>Message failed".$bcc_array[$counter]." :<br />" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
$fail_counter++;
} else {
         //echo("<p>Message successfully sent to <b>". $bcc_array[$counter] ."</b>!</p>");
$success_counter++;
}
}
//echo "<br /><br />Successful emails: " . $success_counter;
//echo "<br />Failed emails: " . $fail_counter;
echo $success_counter.",".$fail_counter.",".$bigerror;
} else {
echo "error";
//echo '<p>Some information is missing, please try again!</p>';
}


Then, the AS if anybody's interested in seeing it.

Code: [Select]
//Create loader to load emailer.php
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); 
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://tendollartools.com/testmail/emailer.php"); 

//Create POST variables
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables(); 
variables.emailfrom = preferences["smtpLogin"];
variables.emailto = preferences["smtpLogin"];
variables.smtpserver = preferences["smtpServer"];
variables.emailpassword = preferences["smtpPassword"];
variables.ssl = preferences["smtpSSL"];
variables.port = preferences["smtpPort"];
variables.bcc = emails;
variables.emailsubject = preferences["emailSubject"];
variables.emailbody = preferences["emailBody"];

//Set method to POST and set variables as the vars to send to emailer.php
request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
request.data = variables; 

//Load emailer.php and run the onEmailComplete function when finished loading
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onEmailComplete); 
loader.load(request);
The preferences object has all the correct information in it... so this is where I'm confused. Why will the exact same POST information work from an HTML form, but not when sent through AS?

How to add SMTP authentication for PHP mail form which is using POST function...

Hi,
I am looking for a script which will help me to send prebuilt e-mail to people with attachments.
Something like this >>>

To : [ ________________                                               ]  <--Textbox
Subject : [                         _____________] <-- Subject
Main body :
[___________________]
[___________________]
[___________________]
[___________________]
[___________________]       <-- with html

[ Submit ]

I would like to attach 5 photos in .jpg which are hosted on server.

Now everything is prebuilt except "To : " as peoples email ID will always change. When Submit is clicked, main body Data and attachment will be sent to "To :" person with SMTP and not php mail()

Well I have covered till sending mail with SMTP, using PEAR PHP, but I am not able to send attachments i.e. photos.

I have 2 pages, index.php - 1st page which includes form and button
sendmail.php - Includes all function and main data
Following is the code of sendmail.php
<?php
include("Mail.php");
include('Mail/mime.php');

$to = $_POST["to_textbox"];
$from = $_POST["from_textbox"];
$subject = $_POST["subject_textbox"];
$message = $_POST["content_textbox"];
$headers = "From: " . $from . "\r\n";

/* SMTP server name, port, user/passwd */
$smtpinfo["host"] = "xbc.pqr.com";
$smtpinfo["port"] = "465";
$smtpinfo["auth"] = true;
$smtpinfo["username"] = "user";
$smtpinfo["password"] = "pass";
/////////////////Attachments Section Start //////////////
$file = '/home/xyzuser/public_html/xbx.pqr.com/mail1/img/linux_logo.jpg';
$crlf = "\n";
$mime = new Mail_mime($crlf);
$mime->addAttachment($file, 'image/jpeg');
//do not ever try to call these lines in reverse order
$attach= $mime->get();
///////////////Attachment Section ends ////////////////

/* Create the mail object using the Mail::factory method */
$mail_object =& Mail::factory("smtp", $smtpinfo);
/* Ok send mail */
$mail_object->send($to, $headers, $subject, $message, $attach);

?>
Now problem is, it is not sending linux tux logo from "img" folder i.e. mail sent with just text from previous page's textbox. It is not handling with attachment i.e. photo, what to do ?

Thanks to http://pear.php.net/manual/en/packag...me.example.php                     

Hello i m newbie to PHP.  I am trying to host the website on my laptop but due to some configuration i cant send the emails through php script. I am trying send mail through mail() but not able to sent mail.

heres the code:
$to = "jwalant.baria@gmail.com";
$subject = "Hi!";
$body = "Hi,\n\nHow are you?";
if (mail($to, $subject, $body)) {
echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
} else {
echo("<p>Message delivery failed...</p>");
}

Output:
Message delivery failed..

I read the previous post here. but  I am not able to figure out what to do about it.
Can anyone tell me what setting i do in my php.ini? or any other that necessary settings require for this.
i don't have SMTP server on my laptop so is there any method from which i can setup the SMTP server on laptop.?

I use apache HTTP 2.2 and PHP 5.3.4

Rest of the website working correctly but only mail not working.

TY..!!
