------------------------------------------

[](#sending-mail-without-mailserver-using-smtp)

Demos
-----

[](#demos)

- [Basic/simple template sending mail](docs/simple-demo.php)
- [SMTP Auth](docs/smtp-auth-demo.php)
- [Setting charset](docs/setting-charset.php)

Debugging
---------

[](#debugging)

Instead of sending the mail, you can retrieve the PHPMailer instance by calling `prepare()`.

```
$phpmail = $phoreMailer->prepare($template,[]);
print_r ($phpmail);
$phpmail->Send();

```

Intercepting outgoing mail
--------------------------

[](#intercepting-outgoing-mail)

```
$mailer->setSendMailFunction(function (PHPMailer $mail, PhoreMailer $phoreMailer) {
     $res["to"] = $mail->getAllRecipientAddresses();
     $res["subject"] = $mail->Subject;
     $res["html"] = $mail->Body;
     $res["text"] = $mail->AltBody;
});
```
