I'm getting this error when I try to mail from CakePHP 2.0 using CakeEmail:
SMTP Error: 502 5.5.1 Unrecognized command. p1si477061pbk.249
I'm sending from Gmail, and here is my config:
public $gmail = array(
'transport' => 'Smtp',
'host' => 'aspmx.l.google.com',
'port' => 25,
'timeout' => 30,
'username' => 'user',
'password' => 'secret',
'client' => null,
'log' => true
//'charset' => 'utf-8',
//'headerCharset' => 'utf-8',
);
The host and port came from this article here: http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?answer=176600
You have to use SSL option in your code.
/* SMTP Options */
$this->Email->smtpOptions = array(
'port'=>'465',
'timeout'=>'30',
'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
'username'=>'[email protected]',
'password'=>'your_gmail_password',
);
/* Set delivery method */
$this->Email->delivery = 'smtp';
