Here are steps to use the phpMailer
First, download PHPMailer code with the below link
After downloaded the file unzip / extract it to your project / root folder. In my case I have put files in public_html/PHPMailer/ folder. Now, you need to change web pages to use the PHPMailer code.
For send mail copy and below code and past to your php file <?php
require("class.PHPMailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = "smtp1.example.com "; // specify main and backup server
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = "<Your UserName>"; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = "<Your Password>"; // SMTP password
$mail->From = "from@email.com";
$mail->FromName = "Technologespost.com";
$mail->AddAddress("nikunj@example.com", "Nikunj Kansara");
$mail->AddAddress("ellen@example.com"); // name is optional
$mail->AddReplyTo("info@example.com", "Information");
$mail->WordWrap = 50; // set word wrap to 50 characters
$mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz"); // add attachments
$mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg"); // optional name
$mail->IsHTML(true); // set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = "Here is the subject";
$mail->Body = "This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>";
$mail->AltBody = "This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients";
if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit;
}
echo "Message has been sent";
?>
