Description ----------- [](#description) **silverstripe-smtp** automatically sends emails (e.g. from UserForms) to your provider's or host's SMTP server instead of using PHP's built-in `mail()` function. **silverstripe-smtp** replaces the classic SilverStripe Mailer (using the `mail()` function) with PHPMailer 5.2.1 (, was ) to send emails via the SMTP protocol to a local or remote SMTP server. When would you use this module: - If your provider disabled `mail()` - If you have troubles sending emails because of the DNS configuration and the way some mail servers discard emails if the domain names don't match - If you want to send emails from your local web server without having to install a mail server, using an external SMTP server instead - If you want to send encrypted emails (using SSL or TLS protocols) Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) SilverStripe 3.1+ Installation ------------ [](#installation) 1. `composer install creativecodelabs/silverstripe-smtp` 2. Without any configuration, the module is going to connect to the mail server on localhost without authentication 3. If you want to fall back to the classic mailer without uninstalling the module: Edit `smtp/_config.php` and comment out the `set_mailer` statement Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Configure the module by editing `mysite/_config.php` and set the following constants: ``` //Required: define('SMTPMAILER_SMTP_SERVER_ADDRESS', 'smtp.gmail.com'); //SMTP server address define('SMTPMAILER_DO_AUTHENTICATE', true); //Turn on SMTP server authentication. Set to false for an anonymous connection define('SMTPMAILER_USERNAME', 'foo@gmail.com'); //SMTP server username, if SMTPAUTH == true define('SMTPMAILER_PASSWORD', 'bar'); //SMTP server password, if SMTPAUTH == true //Optional: define('SMTPMAILER_CHARSET_ENCODING', 'utf-8'); //Email characters encoding, e.g. : 'utf-8' or 'iso-8859-1' define('SMTPMAILER_USE_SECURE_CONNECTION', 'ssl'); //SMTP encryption method : Set to '', 'tls', or 'ssl' define('SMTPMAILER_SMTP_SERVER_PORT', 465); //SMTP server port. Set to 25 if no encryption is used, 465 if ssl or tls is activated define('SMTPMAILER_DEBUG_MESSAGING_LEVEL', 0); //Print debugging informations. 0 = no debuging, 1 = print errors, 2 = print errors and messages, 4 = print full activity define('SMTPMAILER_LANGUAGE_OF_MESSAGES', 'de'); //Language for messages. Look into smtp/code/vendor/language/ for available languages ``` License ------- [](#license) ``` Copyright (c) 2008 Renaud Merle, 2012 Philipp Krenn All rights reserved.
