simm Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Hi all...I'm new here - don't know if this is the right place for my question. I get a 503 SMTP error when I try to send an email from a simple form on my local Vista machine. I've tried an email address from my own domain, gmail, hotmail, and yahoo. Here's the error: Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 530 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. k14sm6838908waf.23 What's the deal? I'm going through a PHP book, and it doesn't cover any error troubleshooting. I've tried everything it seems - from IIS settings to SMTP settings on my local machine to the PHP.ini. Thanks so much.

simm Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 Are you using a local mail server? Yes, I believe so. The php openssl extension must be enabled/installed for php to be able to connect to a mail server using TLS/SSL. I tried enabling openssl, but it's still not working. Thank you for your replies...please keep asking questions, as I'm very new to PHP and I don't know a ton about it...
