README

PHP wrapper which replace default /usr/sbin/sendmail to add smtp support.

Add smtp support for basic mail function.

Setup

Download command line tool

First, download the last release of the binary:

wget https://github.com/smalot/sendmail-smtp/releases/download/v0.1.0/sendmail.phar

And enable execution flag

chmod +x sendmail.phar

Check if it works by displaying version

./sendmail.phar list

Update php.ini

Edit the cli, apache or both php.ini files.

# Set the full path to the phar command line tool.
sendmail_path = "/path/to/phar/sendmail.phar"

The sendmail_path is a PHP_INI_SYSTEM changeable type which means you can only change it in the php.ini file or in the httpd.conf file.

Config file

File to store config : /etc/sendmail-smtp.yml.

You can however place the config file in another folder by specifying it in the sendmail_path value.

sendmail_path = "/path/to/phar/sendmail.phar -f /config/folder/sendmail.yml"
