[Vtigercrm-developers] SMTP not working

[Holbok István]

In the file class.phpmailer.php downloaded from the GitHub Master about 
the line 48 you will find the charset defintion. It is by default is 
iso, but we need utf-8. In the vtiger original this definition is: 
public $CharSet  = 'UTF-8';

I highlighted it with red.

class PHPMailer
{
     /**
      * The PHPMailer Version number.
      * @var string
      */
     public $Version = '5.2.22';

     /**
      * Email priority.
      * Options: null (default), 1 = High, 3 = Normal, 5 = low.
      * When null, the header is not set at all.
      * @var integer
      */
     public $Priority = null;

     /**
      * The character set of the message.
      * @var string
      */
public $CharSet = 'iso-8859-1';

The vtiger uses other settings also, but the utf-8 is the main.

In any vtiger 6.x system replacing the old mailer class files, including 
the require smtp class at the top will work the change. I also uses it 
as Alan in all of my systems.
The last version of the mailer classes can be downloaded from here: 
https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer

And here is the test code of the SMTP connection: 
https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/blob/master/examples/smtp.phps
Inserting this piece of the code, setting credentials inline, and 
turning on the SMTP debug mode, you will able to see what is happening.

Once I had run into trouble with a vtiger smtp connection and the debug 
showed the real why: there was a white space added to the password. I 
spent 3 hours to debug it :-(
Sometimes it is simple like a stone.
