Hi there!
I'm having some problems with my e-mail on XOOPS!
My Host doesn't suport the PHP Mail() function!
So I need to configure XOOPS to work with my GMAIL acount..
I tried to use SMTP but it returned a lot of errors like this:

Fatal error: Class 'SMTP' not found in /home/vhosts/jesma.e2u.cc/class/mail/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php on line 666
Warning [PHP]: phpmailer::smtp_send() [function.smtp-send]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/class.smtp.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/vhosts/:home/php/lib/php:/tmp/:/usr/local/xpanel/conf_php/) in file class/mail/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php line 664
Warning [PHP]: phpmailer::smtp_send(class.smtp.php) [function.smtp-send]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in file class/mail/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php line 664
Warning [PHP]: phpmailer::smtp_send() [function.include]: Failed opening 'class.smtp.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:') in file class/mail/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php line 664

My XOOPS version is 2.2.2
My iste: jesma.e2u.cc
And my Host: http://www.e2uhosting.com

Sorry for my English!

u want to use gmails smtp servers from your website? i'm pretty sure gmail/google will frown upon that.

your web host should provide you with smtp & pop3 settings.

Gmail uses SSL for POP3 and SMTP on the following ports:

SMTP: Port 995
POP3: Ports 465 or 587

I believe the problem you are running into is that the XOOPS mailer only supports the defaults of Port 25 and 110. Unless you can find a way to configure the XOOPS mailer to work with SSL, I don't think you're going to get Gmail to work on your site.

If you do a Google search for free pop3, you may find there are other alternatives for email on your site.

Hope this helps,

James

Look for something with POP3 and SMTP support. Accounts from Yahoo, Gmail, and MSN/Hotmail will not work.

Well, it doesn t work with Google Apps. I use phpmailer 2.0

I tried all combination of smtp.gmail.com with :465, :587 ssl:// tls:// gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com and no succes.

I also made following modifiations in class.smtp.php of phpmailer
var $SMTPAuth = TRUE;
var $SMTPSecure = "tls";

any idea?
