@nitin’s code was not working for me, as it was missing ‘tls’ in the SMTPSecure param. Here is a working version. I’ve also added two commented out lines, which you can use in case something is not working. <?php require ‘vendor/phpmailer/phpmailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php’; $mail = new PHPMailer(true); $mail->isSMTP(); $mail->Host=”smtp.office365.com”; $mail->Port = 587; $mail->SMTPSecure=”tls”; $mail->SMTPAuth = true; $mail->Username=”[email protected]”; … Read more
You need to call the AddAddress method once for every recipient. Like so: $mail->AddAddress(‘[email protected]’, ‘Person One’); $mail->AddAddress(‘[email protected]’, ‘Person Two’); // ..

As discussed previously, GoDaddy has been known to block outgoing SSL SMTP connections in favor of forcing you to use their own outgoing mail server. This is pretty much the tip of the iceberg, with regard to the immense suckitude of GoDaddy as a company, registrar and web host. Ditch’em.
You might want to start by isolating this problem to determine whether it’s truly a network problem; or whether it’s specific to PHP mailer or your code. On your server, from a command prompt, try using telnet to connect to smtp.gmail.com on port 587, like so: telnet smtp.gmail.com 587 You should see a response from … Read more
