Answer 1

I have resolved this whit this code

$config = array('ssl' => 'tls', 'port' => 587, 'auth' => 'login', 'username' => '[email protected]', 'password' => 'password');

$transport = new Zend_Mail_Transport_Smtp('mail.server.com', $config);

$mail = new Zend_Mail();
$mail->setBodyText('This is the text of the mail.');
$mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'Some Sender');
$mail->addTo('[email protected]', 'Some Recipient');
$mail->setSubject('TestSubject');
$mail->send($transport);
