I have been trying and failing to get my email configuration working with godaddy. I am using the codeigniter framework (version 3). I even contacted their support but nothing they gave me or i tried worked.
$config['email_address'] = '[email protected]';
$config['owner'] = 'name';
$config['email_owner'] = '[email protected]';
$config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host'] = 'domain.com';
$config['smtp_crypto'] = 'ssl';
$config['smtp_port'] = '465'; // 465, 25
$config['smtp_timeout'] = '7';
$config['smtp_user'] = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'xxxxx';
$config['validation'] = TRUE;
I tried the smtpout.europe.secureserver.net that they provide on the website (not working)
This is the last info i got from their support team. Maybe someone sees something i did wrong.
Secure SSL /TLS Settings (Recommended)
Username: [email protected]
Password: email account’s password.
Incoming Server: vbuw.app
IMAP Port: 993
POP3 Port: 995
Outgoing Server: vbuw.app
SMTP Port: 465 IMAP, POP3, and SMTP require authentication.
After calling again to godaddy and getting a diffrent tech support person on the line. We managed to solve the issue.
THIS IS A NONE SECURE (NOT USING SSL) SOLUTION
the smtp_host = mail.domain.app
the smtp_port = 587
the smtp_crypto should be removed (so no ssl)
So for reference
$config['email_address'] = '[email protected]';
$config['owner'] = 'name';
$config['email_owner'] = '[email protected]';
$config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host'] = 'domain.com';
// $config['smtp_crypto'] = 'ssl';
$config['smtp_port'] = '587'; // 465, 25, 587
$config['smtp_timeout'] = '7';
$config['smtp_user'] = '[email protected]';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'xxxxx';
$config['validation'] = TRUE;
