Properties

$Debugoutput

How to handle debug output.

public string|callable|LoggerInterface $Debugoutput = 'echo'

Options:

  • echo Output plain-text as-is, appropriate for CLI
  • html Output escaped, line breaks converted to <br>, appropriate for browser output
  • error_log Output to error log as configured in php.ini Alternatively, you can provide a callable expecting two params: a message string and the debug level:
$smtp->Debugoutput = function($str, $level) {echo "debug level $level; message: $str";};

Alternatively, you can pass in an instance of a PSR-3 compatible logger, though only debug level output is used:

$mail->Debugoutput = new myPsr3Logger;

$do_debug

Debug output level.

public int $do_debug = self::DEBUG_OFF

Options:

  • self::DEBUG_OFF (0) No debug output, default
  • self::DEBUG_CLIENT (1) Client commands
  • self::DEBUG_SERVER (2) Client commands and server responses
  • self::DEBUG_CONNECTION (3) As DEBUG_SERVER plus connection status
  • self::DEBUG_LOWLEVEL (4) Low-level data output, all messages.

$Timelimit

How long to wait for commands to complete, in seconds.

public int $Timelimit = 300

Default of 5 minutes (300sec) is from RFC2821 section 4.5.3.2.

$Timeout

The timeout value for connection, in seconds.

public int $Timeout = 300

Default of 5 minutes (300sec) is from RFC2821 section 4.5.3.2. This needs to be quite high to function correctly with hosts using greetdelay as an anti-spam measure.

$xclient_allowed_attributes

Allowed SMTP XCLIENT attributes.

public static array<string|int, mixed> $xclient_allowed_attributes = ['NAME', 'ADDR', 'PORT', 'PROTO', 'HELO', 'LOGIN', 'DESTADDR', 'DESTPORT']

Must be allowed by the SMTP server. EHLO response is not checked.

Tags
see
https://www.postfix.org/XCLIENT_README.html

$error

Error information, if any, for the last SMTP command.

protected array<string|int, mixed> $error = ['error' => '', 'detail' => '', 'smtp_code' => '', 'smtp_code_ex' => '']

$helo_rply

The reply the server sent to us for HELO.

protected string|null $helo_rply

If null, no HELO string has yet been received.

$last_reply

The most recent reply received from the server.

protected string $last_reply = ''

$last_smtp_transaction_id

The last transaction ID issued in response to a DATA command, if one was detected.

protected string|bool|null $last_smtp_transaction_id

$server_caps

The set of SMTP extensions sent in reply to EHLO command.

protected array<string|int, mixed>|null $server_caps

Indexes of the array are extension names. Value at index 'HELO' or 'EHLO' (according to command that was sent) represents the server name. In case of HELO it is the only element of the array. Other values can be boolean TRUE or an array containing extension options. If null, no HELO/EHLO string has yet been received.

$smtp_conn

The socket for the server connection.

protected resource|null $smtp_conn

$smtp_transaction_id_patterns

Patterns to extract an SMTP transaction id from reply to a DATA command.

protected array<string|int, string> $smtp_transaction_id_patterns = ['exim' => '/[\\d]{3} OK id=(.*)/', 'sendmail' => '/[\\d]{3} 2\\.0\\.0 (.*) Message/', 'postfix' => '/[\\d]{3} 2\\.0\\.0 Ok: queued as (.*)/', 'Microsoft_ESMTP' => '/[0-9]{3} 2\\.[\\d]\\.0 (.*)@(?:.*) Queued mail for delivery/', 'Amazon_SES' => '/[\\d]{3} Ok (.*)/', 'SendGrid' => '/[\\d]{3} Ok: queued as (.*)/', 'CampaignMonitor' => '/[\\d]{3} 2\\.0\\.0 OK:([a-zA-Z\\d]{48})/', 'Haraka' => '/[\\d]{3} Message Queued \\((.*)\\)/', 'ZoneMTA' => '/[\\d]{3} Message queued as (.*)/', 'Mailjet' => '/[\\d]{3} OK queued as (.*)/']

The first capture group in each regex will be used as the ID. MS ESMTP returns the message ID, which may not be correct for internal tracking.

recordLastTransactionID()
Return values
bool|string|null

getServerExt()

Get metadata about the SMTP server from its HELO/EHLO response.

public getServerExt(string $name) : string|bool|null

The method works in three ways, dependent on argument value and current state:

  1. HELO/EHLO has not been sent - returns null and populates $this->error.
  2. HELO has been sent - $name == 'HELO': returns server name $name == 'EHLO': returns boolean false $name == any other string: returns null and populates $this->error
  3. EHLO has been sent - $name == 'HELO'|'EHLO': returns the server name $name == any other string: if extension $name exists, returns True or its options (e.g. AUTH mechanisms supported). Otherwise returns False.

$name : string
