re: mail(): SMTP server response: 530 5.7.3 Client was not authenticated

localhost (the computer running PHP) must have mailserver.

It looks like it does in your case but it requires authentication.

if you can telnet localhost on 25 and successfully send mail, then attempt to use PHP.

the PHP standard mail() function does not support authentication. Try the PHP Mailer() class. (Downloadable from a quick google search)


Good luck

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <?php  
  2. require("class.phpmailer.php");  
  3.  $mail = new PHPMailer();  
  4. $mail->IsSMTP();  // telling the class to use SMTP  
  5. $mail->Host     = "www.example.com"; // SMTP server. I provided the name of the host where this file is uploaded
  6.

  12.  $mail->Body     = "Hi! \n\n This is my first e-mail sent through PHPMailer.";  
  13.  $mail->WordWrap = 50;  
  14.  
  15.  if(!$mail->Send()) {  
  16.    echo 'Message was not sent.';  
  17.    echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;

re: mail(): SMTP server response: 530 5.7.3 Client was not authenticated

Sounds like your Windows server is running PHP 4.x The public, protected and private keywords are only available from PHP 5 onwards. Although, the swiftmailer website does suggest it will work with PHP 4

@Markus: Swift Mailer is the other mail class. here PHPMailer is used (Swift Mailer Code is different....)

Oh, in that case: move to Swift Mailer. PHPMailer isn't being developed anymore and has barely any support. My original answer stands: you're running PHP 4, where PHPMailer wants PHP 5.

Hi! Thanks, should I upgrade it to PHP5 or I can write some .htaccess file where I can configure the setting and then upload it to root will it work or what should I should apart from using Swift Mailer.

Upgrade to PHP 5. There's no point in using old versions; it's out of development and no security updates will be released.
