codeigniter localhost email not sending

Question

I have some problem and I don\'t understand. This is my code

$this->load->library(\'email\');
$config[\'protocol\'] = \'sendmail\';
$config[\'mailpath         


        

Answer 1

In Codeigniter, Try this

$this->load->library('email');
$config['protocol']='smtp';
$config['smtp_host']='your host';
$config['smtp_port']='465';
$config['smtp_timeout']='30';
$config['smtp_user']='your mail id';
$config['smtp_pass']='your password';
$config['charset']='utf-8';
$config['newline']="\r\n";
$config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$this->email->initialize($config);
$this->email->from('no-reply@your-site.com', 'Site name');
$this->email->to('to-address-mail-id');
$this->email->subject('Notification Mail');
$this->email->message('Your message');
$this->email->send();

In $config['smtp_user'] field,give your email_id and in $config['smtp_pass'] field,provide your password for that mail.

This will work.Just try it. Hope this will solve your problem.
