Help me turn my PHPmailForm to use SMTP

Hello

I am back with my annoying mail form again ?
Suddenly my website cannot send mails using the ordinary PHPmailer and now I obviously must use SMTP instead. So I really really need some help updating my already existing mail form to be able to send it through SMTP.

I have found this code which is a working example SMTP

[code=php]<?php

if (‘POST’ == $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_METHOD’]) {

require_once(‘../phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php’);

$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = ‘ssl’; // sets the prefix to the servier
$mail->Host = ‘smtp.gmail.com’; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
$mail->Username = ‘[email protected]’; // GMAIL username
$mail->Password = ‘MyPassword’; // GMAIL password

$to = $_POST[‘to’];
$to = filter_var($to, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL); // ensure email valid
if (” == $to) exit(‘Invalid email address!’);

$body = $_POST[‘message’];
$body = eregi_replace(‘[]’,”,$body);

$from = $mail->Username;

// $mail->SetFrom($from, ‘Euro Rider’);
$mail->AddReplyTo($from,’[email protected]’);
$mail->Subject = ‘PHPMailer Test Subject via smtp (Gmail), basic’;
$mail->AltBody = ‘To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!’; // optional, comment out and test
$mail->MsgHTML($body);

$address = ‘[email protected]’;
$mail->AddAddress($to, ‘My Name’);

if(!$mail->Send())
exit(‘Mailer Error: ‘ . $mail->ErrorInfo);
else exit(‘Message sent!’);

}
?>

<form method=”post”>
<input type=”text” name=”to” value=”recepient@email”/><br/>
<textarea name=”message”>Message to send</textarea>
<input type=”submit” value=”Send”/>
</form>[/code]

And this is my original mail form

[code=php]<?php

foreach($_POST as $key => $value){
$_SESSION[‘form’][$key]=$value;
}

// —————— Configuration ——————————————– //
// ——– YOU CAN AND SHOULD TAKE 5 MINUTES TO CUSTOMIZE THIS —————- //

$receiver = “[email protected]”; // Your email.
$v_w = “blue”; // Write a word for the user to write, in order to unable bots to send emails.
// Examples: 2 + 2 = ?? then the v.w. shall be 4… or what color is the sky ??
// answer shall be blue, ect… 🙂
$yoursitename = “My Name”; // Write your site name.
$homepage = “http://MyPage.com”; // Your Website’s main Page.
$url_2_contactf = sefRelToAbs( ‘index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=’.$menu->id.’&catid=’.$content->catid.’:events&Itemid=13′); // URL to contact form

$field_size = 30; // Chose the size you want the fields to be. Default 30.
$textarea_cols = 40; // Chose how many columns you want the text area to have. Default 30.
$textarea_row = 7; // Chose how many rows you want the text area to have. Default 10.

And this is how far I could go, which of course is not working yet…
The changes I made is only editing:
[B]mail->XX[/B] to [B]sent_email->XX[/B]

[code=php]<?php

foreach($_POST as $key => $value){
$_SESSION[‘form’][$key]=$value;
}

// —————— Configuration ——————————————– //
// ——– YOU CAN AND SHOULD TAKE 5 MINUTES TO CUSTOMIZE THIS —————- //

require_once(‘../phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php’);

$sent_email = new PHPMailer();
$sent_email->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP
$sent_email->SMTPAuth = true; // enable SMTP authentication
$sent_email->SMTPSecure = ‘ssl’; // sets the prefix to the servier
$sent_email->Host = ‘smtp.gmail.com’; // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$sent_email->Port = 465; // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
$sent_email->Username = ‘[email protected]’; // GMAIL username
$sent_email->Password = ‘MyPassword’; // GMAIL password
