I’m currently working on a script in php for sending emails via outlook SMTP .
I am using PHPMailer
exemple :
use PHPMailerPHPMailerPHPMailer;
require './vendor/autoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
try {
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = "smtp.live.com"; // smtp.office365.com doesn't work as well
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "myoutlook365Email";
$mail->Password = "xxx";
$mail->SMTPSecure = PHPMailer::ENCRYPTION_STARTTLS;
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->setFrom('myoutlook365Email', 'My name');
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'test');
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = 'Subject';
$mail->Body = 'Body';
$mail->AltBody = 'AltBody';
$mail->send();
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo 'Can't send.' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
The error : SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host. Failed to connect to serverSMTP server error: Failed to connect to server SMTP code: 10060 Additional SMTP info
When I try with google and gmail smtp / email the error :
SMTP Error: Could not authenticate.
I’m sure this is the good password and email. I tried to allow less secure apps but it is not available anymore.
What can I do ?
Am I doing something wrong ?
I tried to send mail with Outlook SMTP. But it always result in an error
