Hello
Thanks for your reply.
I've already scanned this post but I've got the same error.

[Elyes]

Hello,
I'm still waiting for your help.

Seems that waiting is not the best method to find solutions

Did you really check all the information from viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15398 ?
Just to be sure, so I don't have to ask questions which are covered by this post.

Hello,
I've solved my problem by adding the extension openssl_dll to my php.ini file.

Thanks.

Reading was better than waiting
Thanks for coming back and telling the solution.

BTW, do you use XAMPP?

I am asking, because they write it comes with mod_ssl, OpenSSL. This is true, but a) the extension is not enabled and b) it's not contained in php.ini, so you can't just remove the comment sign for the entry.

Hello,
I'm using EasyPHP 5.3.9.
The email notification is working fine with Gmail while it failes with Microsoft Exchange.
Giving that MS Exchange is not using SSL, do you think that I have to disable extension=php_openssl.dll
I've tried

Code: Select all

$g_smtp_connection_mode = '';

But in vain.
Any clues?

[atrol]

do you think that I have to disable extension=php_openssl.dll

No

Any clues?

I searched the forum for "exchange". Seems that you are not alone with this problem, but none of the posts I read provided an answer.
I have no knowledge of Exchange.
We use phpMailer to send mail via smtp. Maybe using their support channels can help.

Elyes, did you succed in using Exchange?
If not, this might help viewtopic.php?f=9&t=20294#p48399
It's German, but I hope that Exchange administrators will understand what user dirste wrote.
