Hi,

My web server is throwing a warning regarding the PHPmailer version. I see the file class.smtp.php is calling an old version of phpmailer. It says:

class SMTP
{
/**
* The PHPMailer SMTP version number.
* @var string
*/
const VERSION = '5.2.26';

When I visit https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/ it says the most recent version is 6.0.7.

Am I missing something? Should we be calling the most recent version?

Thanks for your help.

Hi MaryBeth,
The phpmailer files are now part of the updater and you can enter all the mail credentials in the main settings of the admin, so the way forward is to update to the latest version - https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/updaters.asp

I am referring to the following code. I believe it is triggering a warning on my server.

/**
* PHPMailer RFC821 SMTP email transport class.
* Implements RFC 821 SMTP commands and provides some utility methods for sending mail to an SMTP server.
* @package PHPMailer
* @author Chris Ryan
* @author Marcus Bointon <phpmailer@synchromedia.co.uk>
*/
class SMTP
{
/**
* The PHPMailer SMTP version number.
* @var string
*/

The 5.2-stable branch is the correct branch to use. Current is 5.2.27, so if you want you could download the latest code from here https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/tree/5.2-stable (green button >> download zip) and then send the following two files to your server:

class.smtp.php
class.phpmailer.php

That will put you on the latest version

Hi All
I've updated the PHP Mailer files in the updater now, so if you get a new copy of the updater and copy the files...

class.smtp.php
class.phpmailer.php

...to your server, it should sort out this warning.
