    I couldnt fix my problem by myself so after 10h of work, so I've put my problem here, maybe someone is able to help me. I was trying to fix it, I've checked on the google as well, nothing helped me.

    Let start.

    I was setting SMTP/POP3/IMAP server on my VPS by using this https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-postfix-e-mail-server-with-dovecot guide, I've done everything step by step, I registred on StartSSL to get a certificate, everything went fine, I had no problems at all while cconfigure it, but when I've finished it, I cannot send email from my SMTP server due to problems while sending.

    This is error from http://potar.pl/test.php , you can also go into this link and check the error by your self, I put my setting in postfix, I've set DNS properly, but it is not working at all.

    I'll be very grateful for help.

    Hello,

    is openssl available to be used by php?

    phpinfo(); can help you to check this, as 'php -m' at web server's console.

    Browsing test.php the page says:
    and
    But, there is a 'sent' information.
    Did you fix it already? lol

    Phpinfo: http://potar.pl/info.php

    I've changed test.php into new one, sorry was unable for a second.

    Code:
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
        <title>PHPMailer - SMTP test</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <?php
    date_default_timezone_set('Etc/UTC');
    
    require 'system/phpmailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
    $mail = new PHPMailer();
    $mail->isSMTP();
    $mail->SMTPDebug = 3;
    $mail->Debugoutput = 'html';
    $mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls'; 
    $mail->Host = "mail.potargame.pl";
    $mail->Port = 587;
    $mail->SMTPAuth = true;
    $mail->Username = "support";
    $mail->Password = "";
    $mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'PotarGame SupportTeam');
    $mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'Potar');
    $mail->Subject = 'PHPMailer SMTP test';
    $mail->msgHTML(file_get_contents('contents.html'), dirname(__FILE__));
    $mail->AltBody = 'This is a plain-text message body';
    
    if (!$mail->send()) {
        print "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
    } else {
        print "Message sent!";
    }
    ?>
    </body>
    </html>
