fEmail and fSMTP with gmail fsockopen error

posted by ihumanable 9 years ago

I'm trying to use the fEmail class with the fSMTP class but I can't seem to get a sample message to work. fsockopen is timing out inside fSMTP, here is an XDebug stack trace (with personal information redacted)

( ! ) Fatal error: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to tls://smtp.google.com:465 (Operation timed out) in flourish/fSMTP.php  on line 409

I thought maybe there was an issue with OpenSSL but then I checked my phpinfo() and I have the following

Configure Command has at the end '--with-openssl'

And the OpenSSL section is as follows

openssl OpenSSL support enabled OpenSSL Version OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005

I'm at a loss of what to do next except to try a different Email class like swiftmailer or something, but I would much rather use flourish, the API is excellent and having just one library used consistently is easier to manage.

Thanks for any help.

Try smtp.gmail.com.

Boy do I feel foolish, thanks Will.

No worries, it took me a little bit of looking at it to figure out why it was failing, especially since I have tested with Gmail and knew that it worked. :-)
