I am using Gmail SMTP on local host and web server as well here is my code.
In email.php inside app/Config
public $gmail = array(
'transport' => 'Smtp',
'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
'port' => 465,
'timeout' => 30000,
'username' => '[email protected]',
'password' => 'yourpassword',
'client' => null,
'log' => true
//'charset' => 'utf-8',
//'headerCharset' => 'utf-8',
);
And in any controller for sending emails-
$fromConfig = 'Sender Email';
$fromNameConfig = 'Sender Email';
$emailObj = new CakeEmail();
$emailObj->from(array( $fromConfig => $fromNameConfig));
$emailObj->sender(array( $fromConfig => $fromNameConfig));
$emailObj->subject('Mail Subject');
$body='Mail Body';
// we are using gmail config for sending mails through Gmail Smtp
$emailObj->config('gmail');
$result = $emailObj->send($body);
