In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to sent email using SMTP in codeigniter. The CodeIgniter email library will be used to send email using SMTP server.

Step 1 :- Create View in View Folder (email_send.php)

<h2>Sent Email Using SMTP</h2><br>

<form>
    <input type="email" name="from" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Email" required><br>
    <textarea name="message" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter message here" required></textarea><br>
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Send Message</button>
</form>

Step 2 :- Create Sent Mail Controller for view in Controller Folder (Email_send.php)

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Email_send extends CI_Controller {

	public function index()
	{
		$this->load->view('email_send');
	}

}

Step 3 :- Create Action, Method to send mail

The following HTML code below creates an uploader form. This form is having method attribute set to action, post .

<form action="<?php echo base_url(); ?>email_send/send" method="post">

Step 4 :- Create Send mail Function in Email Send Controller

public function send()
{
    $to =  $this->input->post('from');  // User email pass here
    $subject = 'Welcome To Elevenstech';

    $from = 'pass your email ID';              // Pass here your mail id

    $emailContent = '<!DOCTYPE><html><head></head><body><table width="600px" style="border:1px solid #cccccc;margin: auto;border-spacing:0;"><tr><td style="background:#000000;padding-left:3%"><img src="http://elevenstechwebtutorials.com/assets/logo/logo.png" width="300px" vspace=10 /></td></tr>';
    $emailContent .='<tr><td style="height:20px"></td></tr>';


    $emailContent .= $this->input->post('message');  //   Post message available here


    $emailContent .='<tr><td style="height:20px"></td></tr>';
    $emailContent .= "<tr><td style='background:#000000;color: #999999;padding: 2%;text-align: center;font-size: 13px;'><p style='margin-top:1px;'><a href='http://elevenstechwebtutorials.com/' target='_blank' style='text-decoration:none;color: #60d2ff;'>www.elevenstechwebtutorials.com</a></p></td></tr></table></body></html>";
                


    $config['protocol']    = 'smtp';
    $config['smtp_host']    = 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com';
    $config['smtp_port']    = '465';
    $config['smtp_timeout'] = '60';

    $config['smtp_user']    = 'Gmail ID Enter Here';    //Important
    $config['smtp_pass']    = 'Gmail ID Password pass here';  //Important

    $config['charset']    = 'utf-8';
    $config['newline']    = "\r\n";
    $config['mailtype'] = 'html'; // or html
    $config['validation'] = TRUE; // bool whether to validate email or not 

     

    $this->email->initialize($config);
    $this->email->set_mailtype("html");
    $this->email->from($from);
    $this->email->to($to);
    $this->email->subject($subject);
    $this->email->message($emailContent);
    $this->email->send();

    $this->session->set_flashdata('msg',"Mail has been sent successfully");
    $this->session->set_flashdata('msg_class','alert-success');
    return redirect('email_send');
}

Step 5 :- Create Success Mail Message in Email View

<h2>Sent Email Using SMTP</h2><br>

  //Success Flash message available here ..............
  
  <?php if($error = $this->session->flashdata('msg')){ ?>
       <p style="color: green;"><strong>Success!</strong> <?php echo  $error; ?><p>
  <?php } ?>

  //End Flash message available here ..............


<form action="<?php echo base_url(); ?>email_send/send" method="post">
   <input type="email" name="from" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Email" required><br>
   <textarea name="message" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter message here" required></textarea><br>
   <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Send Message</button>
</form>

Step 6 :- Result

Hope this will help our developers.
