After an upgrade, my scripts stopped sending mails. I discoverd changing smtp server from "mydomain.com" to "localhost" solved this. After some time (and another upgrade) I had to revert the change to make it work. Is there a way to avoid this? some mails are lost between the update and my fix (assuming I remember to change all the scripts...). I am sorry if this has already been asked, I was unable to find it.

  Are you provided with any sort of PHP Error? I use PHPMailer myself on a few projects and have never come across this. I'll be happy to help, if I can.

  It is a problem with SMTP, every site using SMTP Auth fails. Server name isn't recognized

  It works fine for me. This is why I am asking for any sort of error log. Check your public_html folder or wherever the page you send mail from is. There should be a file called "error_log".

  Hello :) Could you elaborate on what you updated? Was it a cPanel update, did you run EasyApache, or was your PHP script upgraded? Thank you.
