I had the same problem and this fix my problem.

this has helped me to fix the 'bug'.

seems like the auth works in the first place but then pear sends an EHLO again (to conform to the RFC). google forgets then the first auth and waits for another auth that never comes.

I don't know whose fault this is but duongld's fix works for me.

I found this on Google as well.

Koyama's solution fixed my problem. I ran the script that Koyama posted and got the fatal error. I wasn't sure how to install the Net_SMTP PEAR package. If you have a similar problem you can install it like this from the terminal:

Code:

# pear install Net_SMTP

If you are using Ubuntu, you will need to use sudo to run that command.

Sorry for digging up this old thread which I found via Google.

I had similar problems. It turned out that my web host didn't have Net_SMTP. So I downloaded the package from PEAR and included it manually.

This may seem like a stupid advice, but on a shared web hosting you can check in you have Net_SMTP like this:

Code:

<?php
$x = new Net_SMTP();
var_dump($x);
?>

If you get a fatal error, there you have the problem.

Any luck with these? i get the same error
DEBUG: Recv: 220 mx.google.com ESMTP d6sm350303fga.2 DEBUG: Send: EHLO localhost DEBUG: Recv: 250-mx.google.com at your service, [87.218.227.97] DEBUG: Recv: 250-SIZE 28311552 DEBUG: Recv: 250-8BITMIME DEBUG: Recv: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN DEBUG: Recv: 250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES DEBUG: Send: AUTH LOGIN DEBUG: Recv: 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 DEBUG: Send: Y2hpZmxpQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ== DEBUG: Recv: 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6 DEBUG: Send: Y2hpZmxpMjk4NA== DEBUG: Recv: 235 2.7.0 Accepted DEBUG: Send: EHLO localhost DEBUG: Recv: 250-mx.google.com at your service, [87.218.227.97] DEBUG: Recv: 250-SIZE 28311552 DEBUG: Recv: 250-8BITMIME DEBUG: Recv: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN DEBUG: Recv: 250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES DEBUG: Send: MAIL FROM: DEBUG: Recv: 530-5.5.1 Authentication Required.

it seems like the auth is not working . I also tried on another email host and i get a diferent error telling me that i need to use the pop before to check that is a secure connection.
I searched all over the net so i think i got the correct code.

Code:

// FUNCION DE ENVIO DE EMAILZ
function mandaremail($de,$para,$sujeto,$mensaje){
require_once ("Mail/mime.php");
require_once "Mail.php";

$headers['From']=$de;
$headers['To'] =$para;
$headers['Subject']= $sujeto;
$crlf = "\n";
$mime = new Mail_mime($crlf);
$parametros['host']='ssl://smtp.gmail.com';
$parametros['auth']=true;
$parametros['port']=465;
$parametros['username']='chifli*****';
$parametros['password']='*******';
$parametros['debug']=true;
$parametros['persist']=true;
$smtp =& Mail::factory('smtp',$parametros);
$mime->setHTMLBody($mensaje);
$body= $mime->get();
$headers=$mime->headers($headers);
$mail=$smtp->send($to, $headers, $body);
print 'debug2';
if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
echo("<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
}
}

Hi.
Definitely I have to pass the parameter $host="ssl://smtp.gmail.com"; I already wrote it.

When I executing my file .php with Mail.php, I'm getting the error :

from getMessage() method I get :

MESSAGE :Failed to set sender: aonascimento@gmail.com [SMTP: Invalid response code received from server (code: 530, response: 5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at 5.5.1 http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=14257 36sm8707536aga.17)]

Well, you add some debug code (like die('test') to your own code and the files from the Mail package (and probably Net_SMTP and Net_Socket) to different places. This way you'll see which parts are reached, and where PHP stops working. If you have a real debugger (like in Zend Studio) this is even easier.

Mar, thanls again, but the same error occurs.

I have changed the parameter $from="aonascimento@gmail.com";
But I have got :
MESSAGE :unable to set sender to [aonascimento@gmail.com]

And the other "hanging" error contines too.

Well, that's wrong, as I already wrote. Only an email address is allowed here.

Note the last user note on this page (it refers to the same problem):

I found out , this :

1st - ) When I passed $host ="ssl://smtp.gmail.com" and I erased my credentials ( username/password) from my .php file . I've got the error :
unable to authenticate to smtp server . It didn't get to autenticate in server.

But If pass my correct credentials with the same $host, I got the error :

" ...DEBUG: Recv: 235 2.7.0 Accepted DEBUG: Send: EHLO localhost DEBUG: Recv: 250-mx.google.com at your service, [200.148.41.69] DEBUG: Recv: 250-SIZE 28311552 DEBUG: Recv: 250-8BITMIME DEBUG: Recv: 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN DEBUG: Recv: 250 ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES DEBUG: Send: MAIL FROM: DEBUG: Recv: 530-5.5.1 Authentication Required.

MESSAGE :unable to set sender to [aonascimento@gmail.com]"

So, Does it correct to say that when I passed my correct credentials I have got to autenticate in smtp.gmail.com, but It's didn't get to SET the sender in e-mail and because it It's returned the error ?
The value sender is in $from="Adalberto <aonascimento@gmail.com>";

2nd-) If I pass $host="smtp.gmail.com" with correct credentials, the page doesn't load.

I think that in this situation I not getting to autenticate in smtp server.

The second string is right. To enforce SSL, you'll have to use the right port value (which you're already seem to be doing).

It might help to add the following lines at the beginning of your script:

Code:

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
require_once 'PEAR.php';
PEAR::setErrorHandling(PEAR_ERROR_DIE);

Maybe you'll get a more helpful message then.

Hi, in according with tihis message :

unable to set sender to [aonascimento@gmail.com]
and with this one :

smtp PEAR_MAIL_SMTP_ERROR_SENDER "Failed to set sender: from" Setting the sender address failed. Check the RFC-compliances of the sender address and the server connnectivity.

It was not possible to set the sender, but it's is very stranger because my user in gmail exist and I'm using this dclaration :

$from = "Adalberto <aonascimento@gmail.com>";

and I have tried : $from = "aonascimento@gmail.com";

But I got the same error .
I would like to know the correct form to pass the parameter : $host

$host = "ssl://smtp.gmail.com";
or
$host = "smtp.gmail.com";

In the firts form I got the error above, but in second form my page doesn't load !![/b]

According to the error message, either your credentials (username / password) are wrong or the 'from' parameter has an invalid syntax (should be only 'user@example.com', without anything else like names).

Another possibility is that you've tried to connect to often to Google's server. The suggestions on the mentioned Google help page might help in this case (=> captcha).

Please try to replace

Code:

$auth = "true";
$debug= "true";

Code:

$auth = true;
$debug= true;

Both parameters expect boolean values, and especially $auth is checked by an is_string() check.
