This mod requires vqmod to function. You can get it at http://www.vqmod.com
This mod replaces the send function of the mail class with a wrapper for phpmailer. It may or may not solve problems that people have with the mail system. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. This is a free mod and uses vqmod to implement the changes, so you can revert very quickly if it does not work properly.
To use with google mail use the following settings
Mail Protocol: SMTP
SMTP Host: smtp.googlemail.com
SMTP Username: your full gmail address blah@gmail.com
SMTP Password: your gmail password
SMTP Port: 587
When using SMTP it uses TLS for port 587 and SSL for port 465
mail protocol setting of mail uses php mail() function.
This mod has not had extensive testing. It's only been tested in a few configurations, and is currently only for 1.5.1.3.
If it seems to help people and there is demand I may backport it to other versions.

Hello Xsecrets,
if you are using the native phpMailer class I can confirm you that it solves all problems OpenCart has with his own built mailclass.
I am using phpMailer now since more than a year in my modufied OpenCart version OCIE and had (and having) not one missed or false or as spam marked email.
My clients too.
The standard OC-mailclass should be repaced with this.

yes it's just the standard phpmailer class. Basically all I did was to change the mail class send function to be just a wrapper around the default phpmailer class. In my limited testing it seems to work fine. I tested with default php mail() and with gmail. I didn't do any extensive testing on other smtp settings. I did notice that it fixed the problem with the logo not showing up in thunderbird.
I really only did this because I just got through doing a bunch of work with phpmailer for a custom project I am working on and figured I would take a few minutes to cram it into opencart since I know I see people having problems on a semi-regular basis.

As written: phpMailer solves all problems the built-in class has/produces.
And it works also with OpenCart 1.4.x - to use it with those versions you have to adopt your script.
And it works also with SMTP.
What would be fine if your script could handle also the additonal settings phpMailer has.
Optionally using them is a fine thing and could help in some situations.

well yes, but like I said it was just something I did real quick, and it only changes that one file. I didn't want to go digging through all the places where mail is generated and change everything, so I simply took the information opencart has and wrapped it into the phpmailer class. It's very similar to one I found that someone did for 1.4.x, but I haven't seen that one in a long time. I think it may have even gotten lost in the forum problem that happened a long time ago, also mine only includes the two needed class file and the license file and not all the documentation like the other one did, and I use vqmod so people don't have to overwrite a core file.

I'm using the 1.5.1.3 version of OpenCart. Install the extension following the instructions (to rename vqmod/xml/PHPMailer-1.5.1.xml_ to remove the _ and rename PHPMailer-1.5.2). I have my page in a BlueHost server and I get this error:
Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to smtp.googlemail.com:587 (Connection timed out) in /home4/xxx/public_html/xxx/system/library/phpmailer/class.smtp.php on line 135SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.

For server administrators can solve this error just adding the port 465 in TCP_IN and TCP_OUT in the settings of your firewall
And one 'side note' for all who are using this module and languages NOT English:
you have to change the encoding inside the file 'class.phpmailer.php' from iso-8859-1 to utf-8.
Or edit the xml.file search for
and add after
or whatever encoding you need (best from language file).
Otherwise you (your costumers) will recieve 'fancy' emails.
