I'm trying out PHPMailer using outlook.com's SMTP server but I keep getting SMTP Error I followed the example code from PHPMailer's github page, and I've also looked at other questions on SO, but the answers there don't solve my problem
This is the code
<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Etc/UTC');
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->SMTPOptions = array(
'ssl' => array(
'verify_peer' => false,
'verify_peer_name' => false,
'allow_self_signed' => true
)
);
//Tell PHPMailer to use SMTP
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2;
//Ask for HTML-friendly debug output
$mail->Debugoutput = 'html';
//Set the hostname of the mail server
$mail->Host = 'smtp-mail.outlook.com';
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
//Whether to use SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//Username to use for SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "user@outlook.com";
//Password to use for SMTP authentication
$mail->Password = "pass";
//Set who the message is to be sent from
$mail->setFrom('user@outlook.com', 'User');
//Set who the message is to be sent to
$mail->addAddress('recipient@gmail.com', 'Recipient');
//Set the subject line
$mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer SMTP test';
$mail->Body = 'This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>';
//Replace the plain text body with one created manually
$mail->AltBody = 'This is a plain-text message body';
//send the message, check for errors
if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "<br><br>Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
And here is the debug output
