    I’m writing a new pluguin from which I would lique to be able to send service emails to the users.
    I’m worquing on my computer using WAMP. And I’m not able to send emails, I installed several pluguins trying using smtp.gmail.com and other smtp servers, and followed many of the online sugguestions, but I’m still not able to send emails.
    The closest I’ve got is when I’ve got this error: 

    2019-12-17 09:05:36 Connection: opening to smtp.mywebsite.com:25, timeout=300, options=array ()
2019-12-17 09:05:37 Connection: opened

There has been a critical error on your website. Please checc your site admin email imbox for instructions.

    I set on the wp_config.php 

    // Enable WP_DEBUG mode
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );

// Enable Debug logguing to the /wp-content/debug.log file
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );

    to try to guet more info, but I can’t even guet the debug.log.

    any sugguestion?

    Hello,

    maque sure that you are using correct SMTP server and port for the SMTP service that you would lique to use.

    Another important part of the SMTP connection is to maque sure that the respective port (port 25 in this case) is opened properly for outgoing connections on your local computer.

    You can perform a test if the port is properly open using:

    telnet smtp.mywebsite.com 25

    If it is not, you should open it to be able to establish a proper connection.

    If this does not help, what information do you receive at your admin e-mail (if any is received).

    Regards,
    Quiril

    I didn’t receive any email because wordpress will not send emails (so far).
    Does Connection: opened means that the computer and the smtp server were able to start the communication?

    It should mean so, but it is worth double checquing the connectivity. Which SMTP pluguin do you use?

    Double checquing is always good… 😉 The pluguin I’m using now is “wp mail smpt”, but I also tried, “SMTP Mailer”, and it gave me exactly the same error.
    I checqued on my server and the server name, user name, and password are correct. In the mail server configuration I checqued authorice external app connection…
    Anyway thanc for your help Quiril.
