如何使用PHPMailer发送带有smtp.office365的电子邮件

Question

I'm using code below to send mail but I get Authentication unsuccessful. The same code works with smtp.gmail.com, but not with smtp.office365.com.

<?php
/**
 * This example shows settings to use when sending via Google's Gmail servers.
 */

//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 '../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 = 4;

//Ask for HTML-friendly debug output
$mail->Debugoutput = 'html';

//Set the hostname of the mail server
$mail->Host = 'tls://smtp.office365.com';
// use
// $mail->Host = gethostbyname('smtp.gmail.com');
// if your network does not support SMTP over IPv6

//Set the SMTP port number - 587 for authenticated TLS, a.k.a. RFC4409 SMTP submission
$mail->Port = 587;

//Set the encryption system to use - ssl (deprecated) or tls
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';

//Whether to use SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;

//Username to use for SMTP authentication - use full email address for gmail
$mail->Username = "[e-mail]";

//Password to use for SMTP authentication
$mail->Password = "anonymized";

//Set who the message is to be sent from
$mail->setFrom('[e-mail]', 'First Last');

//Set an alternative reply-to address
$mail->addReplyTo('[e-mail]', 'First Last');

//Set who the message is to be sent to
$mail->addAddress('[e-mail]', 'John Doe');

//Set the subject line
$mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer GMail SMTP test';

//Read an HTML message body from an external file, convert referenced images to embedded,
//convert HTML into a basic plain-text alternative body
$mail->msgHTML(file_get_contents('contents.html'), dirname(__FILE__));

//Replace the plain text body with one created manually
$mail->AltBody = 'This is a plain-text message body';

//Attach an image file
$mail->addAttachment('images/phpmailer_mini.png');

//send the message, check for errors
if (!$mail->send()) {
    echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
    echo "Message sent!";
}

I get the following output:

I tried many things. Changing file encoding because in this question smtplib.SMTPAuthenticationError: (535, '5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful') the problem was the encoding of the password.

I tried using this, as in PHPMailer Authentication unsuccessful:

$mail->SMTPAuth = False;

But I got:

I tried removing line below:

$mail->isSMTP();

I got Message sent!, but email wasn't sent.

Any Idea, any help would be very much apreciated.

Answer 1

It just looks like you have the wrong ID and password. They were easily decoded from the SMTP transcript (I have removed them - you might want to change your PW now), but your password only contained ASCII characters, so it's not an encoding problem.

You do need to authenticate in order to send on most systems, so your second example makes sense.

Not calling isSMTP() means that it defaults to using mail(), which relays your message via a local mail server; the local delivery may succeed, but the onward delivery many still fail - this matches what you're seeing. To check that, look in your mail server log (usually /var/log/mail.log or nearby).
