Failed to connect socket

I have written a simple php mailing script using mail peer. My code is as follows-

PHP Code:

<?php
require_once "Mail.php";
$from = "TAnvir Sender <[email protected]>";
$to = "Tonu Recipient <[email protected]>";
$subject = "Hi!";
$body = "Hi,\n\nHow are you?";
$host = "ssl://smtp.mail.yahoo.com";
//$host = "smtp.mail.yahoo.com";

$port='465';
$username = "bhonest_4ever2007";
$password = "abcdefg";

$headers = array ('From' => $from,
  'To' => $to,
  'Subject' => $subject);
$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',
  array ('host' => $host,
      'port' => $port,
    'auth' => true,
    'username' => $username,
    'password' => $password));

$mail = $smtp->send($to, $headers, $body);

if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
  echo("<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
} else {
  echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
}
?>

Now I mgetting this error-

"Failed to connect to ssl://smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465 [sMTP: Failed to connect socket: Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP? (code: -1, response: )] "
