use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;

//Load composer's autoloader
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);                              // Passing `true` enables exceptions
try {
    //Server settings
    $mail->SMTPDebug = 2;                                 // Enable verbose debug output
    $mail->isSMTP();                                      // Set mailer to use SMTP
    $mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';  // Specify main and backup SMTP servers
    $mail->SMTPAuth = true;                               // Enable SMTP authentication
    $mail->Username = 'example@gmail.com';                 // SMTP username

    $mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';                            // Enable TLS encryption, `ssl` also accepted
    $mail->Port = 465;                                    // TCP port to connect to

    //Recipients
    $mail->setFrom('example@gmail.com', 'Mailer');
    $mail->addAddress('example@gmail.com', 'Joe User');     // Add a recipient

    $mail->Body    = 'This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>';
    $mail->AltBody = 'This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients';

Search before posting. You can check whether you're being blocked by your ISP by reading [the troubleshooting guide](https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting) which tells you exactly how to do that. — Synchro, Mar 05 '18 at 10:07

If you are using TLS, please use port 587 instead.

SSL would be using port 465

And make sure php_openssl modules is enabled/uncommented in your php.ini
