I'm using contact form 7 and facing a problem with this email id, I'm not getting any mail what we can do for that. I used SMTP also.
could you please suggest me any other option.
have you checked spam folder ? Perhaps emails are in spam for email not get in spam you can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
Here is setup documentation https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-set-up-smtp-using-the-wp-mail-smtp-plugin/.
Please check may be helpful for you.
The best option is using PhpMailer library in php. You can check if the email was sent successfully using php mailer. All you need to do is to take all the library code and add it to your FTP or install it using composer.
Here is a simple example.
<?php
// Import PHPMailer classes into the global namespace
// These must be at the top of your script, not inside a function
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;
// Load Composer's autoloader
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
// Instantiation and passing `true` enables exceptions
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
try {
//Server settings
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // Enable verbose debug output
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'user#example.com'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'secret'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
//Recipients
$mail->setFrom('from#example.com', 'Mailer');
$mail->addAddress('joe#example.net', 'Joe User'); // Add a recipient
$mail->addAddress('ellen#example.com'); // Name is optional
$mail->addReplyTo('info#example.com', 'Information');
$mail->addCC('cc#example.com');
$mail->addBCC('bcc#example.com');
// Attachments
$mail->addAttachment('/var/tmp/file.tar.gz'); // Add attachments
$mail->addAttachment('/tmp/image.jpg', 'new.jpg'); // Optional name
// Content
$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';
$mail->send();
echo 'Message has been sent';
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo "Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: {$mail->ErrorInfo}";
}
You can get all the information on PhpMailer here Php Mailer On Github
The PhpMailer is well configured so you don't have to worry about your emails ending up in Spam folder. Also be careful on the number of mails you send periodically to single recipients.

My Goal:
Use AddStringAttachment() to send a auto-generated base64 string as a .pdf file to another email address.
Coding Environment:
I'm working on WordPress with a ajax call passing a base64 string to the server. The size of the string is usually around 30kbs, it can be guaranteed not exceeding over 50kbs. I have MAX_EXECUTION_TIME 120s.
What I've Been Working Through:
I succeeded:
Sending plain text body
Sending a small .txt file
I failed:
Sending base64 string using AddStringAttachment(). The server returns me a 504 Gateway Time-out error most of time, even if $mail->send() function passes through, I can only receive a corrupt .pdf file with 10kbs bigger than original size.
Sending a already exist .pdf file with AddAttachment(), The server also returns me a 504 Gateway Time-out error, and I also get a warning like Resource interpreted as Document but transferred with MIME type application/pdf
My Code:
function sendPdf() {
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
//Server settings
$mail->SMTPDebug = 2; // Enable verbose debug output
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp.hostinger.com'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'janice#popper.ga'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'secret'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
//Recipient
$mail->SetFrom('janice#popper.ga');
$mail->AddAddress( 'xxxxxxxx#gmail.com' );
$pdf_base64 = $_POST[pdfString];
//Content
$mail->isHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject= ' New Application Form ';
$mail->Body= ' New Application Form From WordPress site ';
//Attachment
//$mail->AddStringAttachment($pdf_base64, $_POST[clientName].'_Application.pdf', 'base64', 'application/pdf');
//$mail->AddAttachment(dirname(__FILE__)."/Qian_Zhong_Application.pdf", 'Qian_Zhong_Application.pdf');
$error = '';
if(!$mail->send()){
$error = 'Mail error: '.$mail->ErrorInfo;
echo $error;
}else{
echo 'Message has been sent.';
}
exit; // This is required to end AJAX requests properly.
}
The data you pass in to addStringAttachment should be raw binary, not encoded in any way, as PHPMailer will take care of that for you. It will also set the encoding and MIME type from the filename you provide, so you do not need to set them manually.
Using a debugger would allow you to watch the script as it runs so you would be able to see exactly what it’s having trouble with. Any error 500s will cause errors to be logged in your web server logs and will usually provide more info.
I would also recommend against using $_POST[clientName] like that without any filtering or validation - you should never trust user input like that.
I'm creating a script for a client using their PHP 5.4.16 (updating is not in the scope of this project), and therefore PHPMailer 5.2.25. My script (below) works if I change the SetAddress to my personal Gmail account (I get the email with subject, body, and attachment (the latter being the reason for using PHPMailer)), but if I change the SetAddress to my WordPress "Post by Email" address, nothing seems to be delivered.
Questions:
Is there anything wrong with my script? Missing headers? Badly formatted email?
If my script is apparently OK, what other avenues of investigation might there be?
Thanks

Now I am not sure if this will help at all but below is the code that I have for a working version of PHPMailer v5.2.9 that is running on a site using PHP version 5.4.16 so may help. The obvious differences I can see is the recipient's section don't have "set" or "Add" and also I can't seem to find the initiator ($mail->send();). Let me know if this helps and for any areas needing extra clarification.
$mail = new PHPMailer(true); // Passing `true` enables exceptions
try {
//Server settings
$mail->SMTPDebug = 0; // Enable verbose debug output
$mail->isSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'smtp.host.co.uk'; // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Username = 'mail#example.co.uk'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'password'; // SMTP password
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
$mail->Port = 587; // TCP port to connect to
//Recipients
$mail->setFrom('email#example.co.uk', 'Company Name');
$mail->addAddress($email); //Gets the email the enquiry form field contains
$mail->addReplyTo('email#example.co.uk', 'Company Name');

From a 'Happiness Engineer' at WordPress:
Hi there!
At WordPress.com we don't allow posts to be sent automatically from
scripts such as PHPMailer.
I guess that answers that! Now to forget PHPMailer, and try and get back to default PHP mail() :(
Sorry to have bothered you all
I have a big problem with my site Wordpress, i have changed the password of the default mail wordpress ( the mail used in the first installation wordpress ).
Now is impossible send mail to new users than sign in on my site.
How can I change the password in wordpress, for the default mail ?
Where is the configuration file for send email ( SMTP user and password ) ?
Greetings.
I have found a solution
Here is a code snippet example with comments for each setting to configure WordPress to sent SMTP email:
add_action( 'phpmailer_init', 'send_smtp_email' );
function send_smtp_email( $phpmailer ) {
// Define that we are sending with SMTP
$phpmailer->isSMTP();
// The hostname of the mail server
$phpmailer->Host = "smtp.example.com";
// Use SMTP authentication (true|false)
$phpmailer->SMTPAuth = true;
// SMTP port number - likely to be 25, 465 or 587
$phpmailer->Port = "587";
// Username to use for SMTP authentication
$phpmailer->Username = "yourusername";
// Password to use for SMTP authentication
$phpmailer->Password = "yourpassword";
// Encryption system to use - ssl or tls
$phpmailer->SMTPSecure = "tls";
$phpmailer->From = "you#yourdomail.com";
$phpmailer->FromName = "Your Name";
}
To use this snippet, you will need to adjust the settings according to your email service requirements. Check with your host.
The snippet, once configured, can be added to your theme’s functions.php file.
I am getting an error in a PHP script I am building:
Fatal error: Class 'ical' not found in /home/abc/public_html/app/mods/googleCalendar_3.0/cache_events.php on line 74
Here is a snippet from my script file:
define('CLIENT_ID', 'ASDLJJLDSJLASDJLajdl;jdsljkASD;LKJASDLKJASD.apps.googleusercontent.com');
require_once('autoload.php'); // 2014-11-24 part of /usr/local/lib/php/google-api-php-client
require_once('/usr/local/lib/php/google-api-php-client/src/Google/Client.php'); // 2014-11-25
require_once('/usr/local/lib/php/google-api-php-client/src/Google/Service/Calendar.php'); // 2014-11-25
$ical = new ical('https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/CLIENT-ID/public/basic.ics');
$eventListArray = array_filter($ical -> events(), "locationfilter");
$eventCount = count($eventListArray);
print_r($eventListArray); echo "<br>";
echo "Event Count:" . $eventCount;echo "<br>";
exit;
I am simply trying to retrieve all events in my public calendar
Notes:
Calendar is publicly viewable
Just to make sure, I added my Auth & API's > Credentials > Service Account > Email Address to it just to be safe
If you want to use a service account your code is off quite a bit. I cant test this code my local webserver is acting up but it should be close you may have to tweek the $service->Events->list(); part it was kind of a guess. Make sure that you have the Service account email address added as a user on the calendar in question and it should work.
session_start();
require_once 'Google/Client.php';
require_once 'Google/Service/Calendar.php';

Note: all you need is the Google Dir you can remove everything above that you dont really need it. Code was edited from the only tutorial i have that shows this in PHP.
I'm in need of help for a custom form in which emails are not being sent.
Context: Within Drupal, I have installed the following modules: PHPMailer, SMTP Authentication Support, Mail System and Mime Mail.
Configuring the above modules you have the option to test your configurations and when preforming such tests emails are being sent properly. However, when writing a module for a form, emails are not being sent.
I don't get any type of erros nor message. I just don't get the email.
Here is the snipped of code that I'm using:
function application_form_submit($form, &$form_state) {
$subject = "testing web form";
$body = array();
$body[] = "Mail body";
$send = FALSE;
$mail_message = drupal_mail('application', 'apply-jobs', 'email#gmail.com', language_default(), $params = array(), $from = 'user#test.com', $send);
$mail_message['subject'] = $subject;
$mail_message['body'] = $body;
$mail_system = drupal_mail_system('application', 'apply-jobs');
$mail_message = $mail_system->format($mail_message);
$mail_message['result'] = $mail_system->mail($mail_message);
}
Suggestions?
You've got an odd way of defining optional parameters. This bit:
$from = 'user#test.com'
will evaluate to... nothing
Try changing your drupal_mail() call like this:
$mail_message = drupal_mail('application', 'apply-jobs', 'email#gmail.com', language_default(), array(), 'user#test.com', $send);
I found the solution to my question. The solution is:
The Mail System module allows one to Configure Mail System settings per module, which means that I had to create new mail system for my customized module an indicate the mail system that I want to use. After I did this, all my email are being sent without any problems.
Hope this helps someone, as there is very little information about this.
Thank you all.
