phpmailerHow can I use PHPMailer with Bitrix?

PHPMailer is a popular library for sending emails from PHP. It can be used with Bitrix, a popular CMS, by following a few steps.

First, the PHPMailer library must be added to the project. This can be done by downloading the library from GitHub and including the necessary files in the project.

Next, the necessary configuration must be set in the /bitrix/php_interface/init.php file. This includes setting the SMTP host, port, username, and password.

$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'smtp.example.com';
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "[email protected]";
$mail->Password = "password";

Finally, the email can be sent using the send() method.

$mail->setFrom('[email protected]');
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]');
$mail->Subject = 'Test email';
$mail->Body = 'This is a test email sent using PHPMailer';

if (!$mail->send()) {
    echo "Error sending email: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
    echo "Email sent successfully!";
}

Output example

Email sent successfully!

In summary, using PHPMailer with Bitrix requires downloading the library, configuring the SMTP settings, and sending the email using the send() method.
