If your exchange machine requires TLS, you need to use something other than Swift. If you use phpMailer, the authentication code is.. $this-IsSMTP(); $this-SMTPDebug = 2; $this-SMTPAuth = true; $this-SMTPSecure = tls; $this-Host = smtp.yourexchangehost.com; $this-Username = 'yourdomain\yourusername'; // setup this way if you are using domain authentication $this-Password = '*'; If you don't need TLS to connect to exchange, then you just need to test that the mail() function works on your server, like Eno said.

In the original 4.0 release, it wasn't working, but according to the documentation, it's now supported! http://swiftmailer.org/docs/smtp-transport That's great news, because the library is so much more powerful that phpMailer. Sorry for the misinformation. On Fri, Sep 18, 2009 at 9:29 AM, david da...@inspiredthinking.co.uk wrote: TLS used to work with swift mail - has support been dropped?

Errors, etc? If properly configured, it works - just like it does for me.
