 |
|
Can anyone enlighten me regarding this, as I have tried a number email accounts to sendmail via the php.ini however i can not get gmail to function. Does anyone know why gmail won't function as other accounts such as yahoo that use port 25. Is there anything else i need to alter for the secure port 465 used by gmail. I have used the following settings in my php.ini
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = smtp.gmail.com
smtp_port = 465
; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = westsyde.homeip.net@gmail.com
Thanks

GMail SMTP requires a username and password, and a secure connection.
I don't think these settings are supported in php.ini - you will need a separate mailer program to pass parameters to from your PHP script...

I guess you are refering to phpmailer or similar.
I will give that a go and see if i can resolve this.
