        if(empty($cek))
        {
            header('location:'.base_url().'app_admin');
        }
        else
        {
            $config['protocol'] = 'smtp';
            $config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.com';
            $config['smtp_port'] = '25';

            $config['mailtype'] = 'text'; // or html
            $config['validation'] = FALSE; // bool whether to validate email or not

            $page=$this->uri->segment(3);
            $limit=$this->config->item('limit_data');
            if(!$page):
            $offset = 0;
            else:
            $offset = $page;
            endif;

            $d['tot'] = $offset;
            $tot_hal = $this->db->query("select * from tbl_site order by id_site ASC");
            $config['base_url'] = base_url() . 'app_admin_site/index/';
            $config['total_rows'] = $tot_hal->num_rows();

        }
    }


}

Hosting provider said if can used mail service with another methods, but they didn't give me a sample for another solution, is there any ideas to solve my problem in codeigniter?

nb: i already tried with different hosting my code work correctly, my web can sent email. But it can't work in my own hosting, so i need another solution

Please inform, thanks...

Codeigniter provides email library try it [click here](https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/email.html) — Suneel Kumar, Jul 20 '17 at 10:49
First, make one small demo of single PHP file to check if SMTP is working on your server or not. If it will not work then you need to change the SMTP to Gmail or any other good emails service provider. — Sahil Patel, Jul 20 '17 at 10:52
i code above already worked in another hosting, but in my own hosting it can't work, they said it because my email method can't support it, if there any advice or another method with source code it will helpfull to understand... — karisma, Jul 20 '17 at 10:57
change `$config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.com';` to `$config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.smtp.com';` — RJParikh, Jul 20 '17 at 11:33
