Ok,
First of all, it would be nice if you could describe your own experience. eg.:what's the mail notification method chosen, what were the step-by-steps that you already tried, etc..
In my experience, i tried a lot of changes in config_inc.php, but what really solve my issue was updating php_mailer version.
(download)
After that I just had to set back port and host paramaters separated. I say this because I had tried to use the host configuration with port (g_smtp_host='host:465')
Here's my config_inc mail config:
Code: Select all
$g_phpMailer_method = PHPMAILER_METHOD_SMTP;
$g_smtp_host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$g_smtp_port = 465;
$g_smtp_username = 'user@owndomain.com';
$g_smtp_password = '*****';
$g_smtp_connection_mode = 'ssl';
I have my domain using Google Apps, so that's why i'm using my owndomain.com in username. I haven't tested GMail account config, but i guess this should work as well. Another thing that i didn't test was using port 587 with TLS.
I hope it work for you too.
If you have any questions on how to upgrade PHP Mailer, just tell me.
Regards,
Lucas

Maybe this could also help you.
I used following script to test sending emails via PHPMailer.
Code: Select all
<?php
ini_set("include_path",".:/complete/path/to/your/mantis/core/phpmailer/");
require("class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port
$mail->Username = "user@owndomain.com"; // GMAIL username
$mail->Password = "passwd";
$mail->From = "user@owndomain.com";
$mail->FromName = "Email Test";
$mail->AddAddress("to@owndomain.com");
$mail->Subject = "PHPMailer Test Message";
$mail->Body = "Hi! \n\n This is a test e-mail sent through PHPMailer.";
$mail->WordWrap = 50;
if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo 'Message was not sent.';
echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent.';
}
?>
