I am using XAMPP and when trying to send email through localhost I get the following warning:

Warning: stream_socket_enable_crypto(): this stream does not support SSL/crypto in C:\xampp\htdocs\12work\class.smtp.php on line 197

Here is my code:

$mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsSMTP(); // set mailer to use SMTP

$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com"; // specify main and backup server

$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Port = 25;

$mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";

$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication

$mail->Username = "sheikh.abm@gmail.com"; // SMTP username

$mail->Password = "mypassword"; // SMTP password

$mail->From = "sheikh.abm@gmail.com"; //do NOT fake header.

$mail->FromName = "MailMan";

$mail->AddAddress("sheikh.abm@gmail.com"); // Email on which you want to send mail

$mail->IsHTML(true);

$mail->Subject = "Just a Test";

$mail->Body = "Hello. I am testing <b>PHP Mailer.</b>";

if(!$mail->Send())

{

echo $mail->ErrorInfo;

}else{

echo "email was sent";

}

Alright, we need to enable Open SSL module. Here is how to do it:

  1. Locate and open your php.ini file
  2. Search for the line: ;extension=php_openssl.dll
  3. Enable the module by removing ; char.
  4. Save the file and restart Apache.

Hint: If you are not familiar with php.ini file, it is recommended to create a backup before modification. Ini is a configuration file and misconfigured or corrupted ini can result in that web server will not start.

If you are using LAMP stacks such as wamp, it should be possible to enable modules via graphic interface.

Just a quick note,
you use $mail->Port = 25; 

 $mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";

Port should be 587 for gmail /tls
