Based on the youtube video I watch on how to perform smtp configuration using smtp.gmail.com
Below are my code:
<?php
//Import PHPMailer classes into the global namespace
//These must be at the top of your script, not inside a function
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;
//Load Composer's autoloader
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
//Create an instance; passing `true` enables exceptions
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
try {
//Server settings
$mail->isSMTP(); //Send using SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com'; //Set the SMTP server to send through
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; //Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = '[email protected]'; //SMTP username
$mail->Password = '************'; //SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; //Enable implicit TLS encryption
$mail->Port = 25;
//Recipients
$mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'Mailer');
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'Joe User'); //Add a recipient
//Content
$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';
$mail->send();
echo 'Message has been sent';
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo "Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: {$mail->ErrorInfo}";
}
I get this error when I try to run this code:
php email.php
The error are:
Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. Failed to connect to serverSMTP server error: Failed to connect to server SMTP code: 10060 Additional SMTP info: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
I tried remake the app password in my gmail account and retry to deploy it again but get the same error. I wanted to try this first before implement it in my system
