Thank you
Gmail allows for the use of IMAP, so if you can write an IMAP client, you can connect and grab mail from GMail.

basically I'm hosting my site on 123-reg and have a contact form on my site which i want people to send me emails to my live.co.uk email address, i was using the basic php mail() but found all emails are constantly going into junk folder which i rather it go into inbox so was told to use phpmailer
looking into phpmailer i get to the code which asks for smtp but I'm lost with this as I'm not sure what i should be putting for the host username and password as i want the website to send emails to a given email address , any advice on what i should be putting this and why would be great
Thank You
You don't need to use SMTP - you can use a local mail server and call isMail() instead of isSMTP() - though you don't even need to do that since it's the default. In the examples folder provided with PHPMailer, look at the one called mail.phps.
I have searched for email sending from iphone using smtp server but I just find the Email composing and send email plugin. Need Plugin for sending mail without composing mail.
Can someone help me?
You can make ajax post request to a php page in the server that does the email sending.. Check https://stackoverflow.com/a/29677288
I have set up several email accounts on my vps hosting but I can't receive any emails that are send via php from another hosting. Everything works fine when I send emails from gmail for example, I receive them without a trouble. Does anyone know any reason why emails sent from php can't be received?
Try using phpmailer, it's a good mailing class which automatically sets well defined headers so that the mail is more likely to not land in the spam folder.
Sounds like a spam filter issue. Have you set up a proper Sender ID/SPF framework in your domain name service so that the host appears to be a valid MTA for this domain? Look here for a detailed explanation of Sender ID/SPF/DKIM, etc.
Check your spam folder.
GMail is able to differenciate if a mail has been sent from outlook for example or an automated application. (I dont know how, but they can). If i send an email from my work account to GMAil works, if its a web app or executable with the same email adress, it ends up on the spam folder.
How do I use Google Apps' email services to send mail using the CodeIgniter email class? The email class seems to prefer SMTP, and I was going through the clients Google Apps account. I can't find any place within the Google Apps settings for SMTP. Does anyone know of a solution for this issue?
Right you don't find it because CodeIgniter uses the "mail" PHP function.
For some reasons only the most drunken PHP core developer knows about - this function do not support SMTP and worse even the admin can't configure SMTP usuage on Unix (it is possible to do this on windows - making the PHP design look even more crazy).
There are a few SMTP libraries out there that can handle SMTP Email, just use them
http://pear.php.net/package/Mail
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/
http://swiftmailer.org/
or the Email classes from the Zend Framework which are uncoupled from the rest so easy to use with CodeIgniter.
Here is a blog post detailing instructions:

Extract From link:
Why send email with Gmail rather than
the server's SMTP configuration? There
are a number of advantages I see for
doing this: Ability to develop locally
and test email sending functionality
without going to lengths to setup a
local mail server. Ability to utilise
Google Apps emails to send email from
emails which are on your own domain.
Ability to have a reference of the
mail you send using this method in the
"sent" folder on your Gmail account.
How can I send email using Perl through my Gmail account? The one CPAN library (Mail::Webmail::Gmail) that I tried didn't work and I don't see much activity with it.
At the moment I really only need to send a message. However, the advanced functionality of getting my contacts, acting when a new email is received that has a certain label, etc. certainly seems appealing for another day.
Did you try Email::Send::Gmail?
You could always send with SMTP. The server is smtp.gmail.com, it requires TLS and uses authentication. You may also have to enable POP/IMAP in your account.
I had the same problem with Mail::Webmail::Gmail, I ended up using Net::IMAP::Simple::SSL to get my mail from gmail. I'd guess if I had to try to send mail with it I would first try Net::SMTP::Server .
I have extended WWW::Contact::GoogleContactsAPI to get all the contact fields. See:
Is there a Perl module to interface to Google Contacts API?
