SMTP Problem

Hi,
I am using resent version of opencart v1.3.0
emails using smtp are not working, the page says "Your message has been successfully sent!" but no mails are received.

i can able to use smtp successfully using pear package.
the bellow code works perfectly, and my server runs on SSL.
is there any thing i have to change in opencart

thanks
<?php
require_once "Mail.php";

$from = "Sandra Sender <user@domain.com>";
$to = "Customer <customer@domain.com>";
$subject = "Hi!";
$body = "Hi,\n\nHow are you?";

$host = "ssl://somehost.com";
$port = "portno";
$username = "storekeeper@domaincart.com";
$password = "password";

$headers = array ('From' => $from,
'To' => $to,
'Subject' => $subject);
$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',
array ('host' => $host,
'port' => $port,
'auth' => true,
'username' => $username,
'password' => $password));

$mail = $smtp->send($to, $headers, $body);

if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
echo("<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
} else {
echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
}
?>

what is the address of the mail server?

After adding the SMTP details (login, e-mail etc.), the menu button isn't allowing me to acces the 'mass' e-mail sending to customers. Daniel why's that? Can you help me please?

I get an error like: Permission denied!

i'm not sure i should go to this fully or not. there are many different ways a mail server can be configured. they may not allow mass mailings.

when using pear did you do a mass mail?

it is.

Outgoing Mail Server: (SSL) linux.securehostdns.com (server requires authentication) port 465

I just had this issue with another PHP form mailer when sending email in the format "Customer <customer@domain.com>" - I got a success message everytime, but a filter of some sort was not actually sending the email.
I fixed the problem by entering the email address in the $to field.

Try mailing using only the email address instead, to see if it's the same problem.
eg.
WRONG - $to = "Customer <customer@domain.com>";
RIGHT - $to = "customer@domain.com";

Hi Daniel,
What do you say about integrating the phpmailer package within opencart,
since the broute force solution of smtp not seems to wait for server replies
and only perform successive fputs I guess that most mail server will reject that
kind of session even with minimum security defaults.

I have successfully integrated the phpmailer in my opencart website
and mails seems to propogate well using my smtp server (with authentication).

you get to choose your own port in the admin!

I prefer to use opencarts class because its smaller and uses one class to do everything. Its I better I just fix the current one.
