Getting Through Hotmail

[atomicnuke]

Has anyone used phpmailer I'm trying to figure how to set it up. Not sure how to change the php.ini file for it.

[atomicnuke]

Just a bump, because I'd really like to learn how to set it up and use it.

see http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/ I use it, and I didn't have to change my php.ini file

Guess it was this I saw in the installation "Copy class.phpmailer.php into your php.ini include_path." But didn't see the ini_set command that could do the same thing.

How did you set it up? I'm still showing as spam to hotmail, do you use smtp in the phpmailer?

[areidmtm]

The phpmailer.php and smtp.php I left the same. As for sending the email.... $mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = $domain;
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = $emailUsername;
$mail->Password = $emailPassword;

$mail->From = $fromEmail;
$mail->FromName = $fromName;
$mail->AddAddress($webmasterEmail, $webmasterName);

$mail->WordWrap = 50;
$mail->IsHTML(true);

$mail->Subject = "New Website Suggestion / Comment";
$mail->Body = "New Website Suggestion / Comment!<p>";
$mail->Body .= "Suggestion / Comment below:<br>";

$mail->Body .= "<b>Name:</b> " . $_GET['name'] . "<br>";
$mail->Body .= "<b>Email:</b> " . $_GET['email'] . "<br>";
$mail->Body .= "<b>Suggestion / Comment:</b><br>";
$mail->Body .= $_GET['sugcom'] . "<br>";

if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}


Although, I have never tested it out with hotmail

[atomicnuke]

$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = $domain;
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = $emailUsername;
$mail->Password = $emailPassword;



This is the part I'm interested in, can you give me an example of what goes there instead of variables?

[areidmtm]

$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = "mail.yourdomain.com";
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "username@yourdomain.com";
$mail->Password = "Email Password Here";


Also, I just tested this out with hotmail, and sure enough, it ended up in the junkmail....hummm, you might want to try the other sending methods. Such as

$mail->IsMail();
$mail->IsSendmail();
$mail->IsQmail();

And try using $mail->SMTPAuth = false; See if those do anything
