I'm having this exact same issue. Has anyone successfully used Google to send mail?

You probably don't have a fully qualified domain name (possibly related to SERVER_NAME). Ask your host for help.

As a possible workaround, edit /system/library/mail.php and change:

Code: Select all

fputs($handle, 'EHLO ' . getenv('SERVER_NAME') . $this->crlf); 
To (assumes server using IPv4):

Code: Select all

fputs($handle, 'EHLO [' . getenv('SERVER_ADDR') . ']' . $this->crlf); 
You should also use phpinfo to find out what your SERVER_NAME and SERVER_ADDR values are (they'll be in the Environment table).

More info on HELO/EHLO standards can be found in RFC 2821 Section 4.1.1.1.

Try This:

Hi,
i have the same problem so i found this answer to my problem:
What port number you have set in SMTP field? Try port 465 if you have default 25 as SMTP port.

In case use gmail account was SMTP:

Mail Protocol: SMTP
Mail Parameters: (blank)
SMTP Host: ssl://smtp.gmail.com
SMTP Username: (yours)
SMTP Password: ****
SMTP Port: 465
SMTP Timeout: 5

SMTP Host: ssl://smtp.gmail.com

The ssl:// before the host makes all the diference.

I want to send email through gmail smtp.

My settings:

smtp: smtp.gmail.com
port: 25

Notice: Error: AUTH LOGIN not accepted from server! in D:\server\Apache2.2\htdocs\amonshop\system\library\mail.php on line 217

When I use ssl smtp:

ssl://smtp.gmail.com
port: 465

Than I get other error:
Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to ssl://smtp.gmail.com:465 (Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?) in D:\server\Apache2.2\htdocs\shop\system\library\mail.php on line 153Notice: Error: Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP? (10) in D:\server\Apache2.2\htdocs\shop\system\library\mail.php on line 156

When I set to "mail" instead of smtp, contact form works, but i don't get any email.

Any advices?

Ok. I tried gmail and hotmail servers. They do not work.

I downloaded argosoft mailserver and setup my localhost mail server and stuff works. What would be the problem for me that gmail or hotmail doesn't work? Am I blacklisted or something? Gmail worked on wordpress like 1 week ago.

I am running into this problem. Just tested SMTP auth from command line. Seems the handshake is not waiting for proper 220 before sending HELO. My server is failing this referencing section 3.1 of RFC 2821.

Probably has to do with the way your host configured things. OpenCart sends enquiry emails out as being "from" the person submitting them even though it's actually from you.

Hello guys,

isn't there any fully functional solution? I didn't have any problem until a few weeks ago and then suddenly this mail server problem has been occured. Exceptional, once or twice I replaced mail.php from my backup and fixed it but now it doesn't work.

I'm using ISP based mail server and there wasn't change any settings on my ISP. All settings are the same since I had setup emails.

I didn't try to change SERVEr_NAME to SERVER_ADDR becouse I don't think so it does work, what could be change about server definition? also doesn't work port value!

I really begin to hate this opencart program! When I think about "oh great everything is fine"...then a problem occurs!
I hope you guys find a solution.

HEllo to this issue HELO is very simple if you have a vps.
just add ssl:// before your server name and its done.
ie
smtp
yourserver.hostingprovider.com
should be
ssl://yourserver.hostingprovider.com

I confirm that it worked for me too! My configuration is as in the image. My system is in Turkish. But you can guess all parameter meanings. :)

My opencart version is 2.2.0.0
