Issue
I have this script:
require_once "Mail.php";
$from = "Stephen <username@nvrforget.com>";//Google apps domain
$to = "username@gmail.com";
$subject = "Hi!";
$body = "Hi,\n\nHow are you?";
$host = "mail.nvrforget.com";
$username = "username@nvrforget.com";
$password = "password";
$headers = array ('From' => $from,
'To' => $to,
'Subject' => $subject);
$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',
array ('host' => $host,
'auth' => true,
'username' => $username,
'password' => $password));
$mail = $smtp->send($to, $headers, $body);
if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
echo("<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>");
} else {
echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
}
I am coming up with this error:
Non-static method Mail::factory() should not be called statically
Any idea how to fix this? Pear Mail is installed on the server.
Solution
Non-static method Mail::factory() should not be called statically
This is a non-fatal notice coming from PHP because PEAR Mail is prehistoric and hasn't been updated to use the static
keyword introduced five years ago in PHP5.
After reviewing the documentation, your call to Mail::factory
looks completely correct and normal.
You failed to tell us if if the call to send
succeeds or fails. If it's succeeding, but the mail is never being delivered, please check the SMTP server logs. If it's failing, what's the actual error message? The Mail::send
documentation includes a comprehensive list of errors.
You might want to consider using a more modern mail sending library, like Swiftmailer.
