I am using the latest version of PHPMailer 6.0.2 on LOCALHOST with Gmail SMTP Ports [ SSL on 465 and TLS 587 ]. It works well but not stable or works properly, very strange while OpenSSL Extension is also active in PHP Config /PHP.ini file.
It returns the error " SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host ", sometimes on 465 or 587 port.
As right now it's on 587.
Here the exact error on port 587 ;

Finally, I found the solution on troubleshooting guide.
I recommend to other users who are facing the same issue; please see following Points carefully on troubleshooting guide;
- Opportunistic TLS
- PHP 5.6 certificate verification failure
- cURL error 60
My Script is working fine with Gmail ss/465 and tls/587.
Thanks! #Synchro.

I'm using Azure Functions to email an Excel file. I use the npm package NodeMailer to send the email. When I try to send the email I get this error in the Function app logs:
Result: Failure Exception: connect ETIMEDOUT [SMTP server IP address]:50025 Stack: Error: connect ETIMEDOUT [SMTP server IP address]:50025 at TCPConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (node:net:1161:16)
Here is part of the app code that sends the email:
// Send the email
const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
host: "[SMTP server IP address]",
port: 50025,
secure: false,
ignoreTLS: true,
connectionTimeout: 180000,
debug: true
});
let mailOptions = { .... }
context.log('Sending email');
let info = await transporter.sendMail({mailOptions, function(error, info) {
if (error) {
context.log("sent mail error: " +error.message);
}
context.log(info.response);
}
});
The 'Sending email' line prints out in the logs so I know the code gets that far. However, the code doesn't print out 'sent email error ...'.
I'm using an on-premises SMTP server that is hosted on a private network. I whitelisted the Azure Function app's outbound IP addresses so the app can access the SMTP server. The request from the Function app is not hitting the firewall on the private network(ie none of the outbound IPs are hitting the firewall).
I've tried tweaking the nodemailer configuration, like increasing the connection timeout time and enabling TLS with no difference.
I don't know what else to try. Is there any way to solve this?
Getting a very weird connection error configuring a new PHPMAILER SMTP end-point. PHPMailer code,is below. I am able to connect with the same set of credentials with Thunderbird, and hence the auth and server settings info is correct, as mentioned in the PHPMailer script. With PHPMailer, getting the error,
Connection failed. Error #2: stream_socket_enable_crypto(): SSL:

SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.
Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: SMTP Error: Could not connect to SMTP host.
I deployed the project on the real host, and email stopped sending. It works on the local host.
Here is the nodemailer settings:
var smtpTransport = nodeMailer.createTransport({
service: "gmail",
host: "smtp.gmail.com",
auth: {
user: "here is my gmail",
pass: "here is password"
}
});
Here is the data that was sent to me from the hosting:
List of POP3 IMAP and SMTP mail servers
Webmail: https://mail.ye4wrc7dna.nlnode.webrahost.eu
POP3/IMAP Server:
mail.webrahost.com
Port: 993
TLS/SSL
Outgoing Server (SMTP):
mail.webrahost.com
Port: 465
Connection security: SSL/TSL
(this server requires an encrypted connection)
The request comes to the server (checked through console.log), but the email is not sent. How to set up correctly?
Thanks to everyone
The problem was solved in the following way. Technical support created an account at http://mail.webrahost.com/ for me, and then I entered this data into the settings of nodemailer.
var smtpTransport = nodeMailer.createTransport({
host: "mail.webrahost.eu",
port: 465,
secure: true,
auth: {
user: "my webrahost email",
pass: "my password"
}
});
Now email is working
here is my code to integrate godaddy email using nodemailer
var transporter = nodeMailer.createTransport({
service: 'Godaddy',
host: "smtpout.secureserver.net",
secureConnection: true,
port: 465,
auth: {
user: "***",
pass: "***"
}
});
it gives error i have also tried using port 80 and smtpout.asia.secureserver.net it also does not work below is my godaddy gmail settings

I had similar problem (maybe the same) and I figure out that this happens when i use self signed SSL certificate.
I fixed this by adding "rejectUnauthorized" option to tls:
var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport(smtpTransport({
host: host,
port: 25,
auth: {
user: user,
pass: pass
},
tls:{
rejectUnauthorized: false
}
}));
The error is applied to the callback of "sendMail" function and is not emitted as 'error'.
I don't have enough reputation to reply above, but you could also check the latest syntax from Nodemailer, ie:
const smtpConfig = {
host: 'smtp.gmail.com',
port: 465,
secure: true, // use SSL
auth: {
user: 'user#gmail.com',
pass: 'pass'
}
}
note:
secure: true // use SSL
You might not need that TLS work-around if you tell it to use SSL.
Reference: https://nodemailer.com/2-0-0-beta/setup-smtp/
Mine is currently running off postfix and mailx, and I only had to put in the hostname:
const transporter = nodemailer.createTransport({
name: 'localhost'
})
That should work as long as you can perform this test (type in shell):
echo "Email Body Test" | mail -s "Email Subject Test" you#yourdomain.com
If it doesn't work, investigate your firewall, port 25 (probably not the issue in this case, but in other similar cases).
Also confirm the user running node has permission to use the mail program.
