maybe you can test the code on your local system or sandbox? I’m sure there is nothing wrong with the code, but we need to start somewhere before we can locate the problem

syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VARor ‘}’ in /homepages/23/d204211733/htdocs/valleywoodcrafts/formfiles/class.phpmailer.php on line 44

Unfortunately it’s the same old OSS problem: nobody seems to like writing documentation so doing so tends to be either forgotten about or left for too long.

ini_set('include_path', '.:/path2directory/ezcomponents/');
require_once 'Base/src/ezc_bootstrap.php';
 
$mail = new ezcMailComposer();
$mail->from = new ezcMailAddress('you@mail.com', 'Your name');
$mail->addTo(new ezcMailAddress('contact@mailservice.us', 'Your friend'));
$mail->subject = 'This is the subject of the example mail';
$mail->plainText = 'This is the body of the example mail.';
$mail->addFileAttachment('path/logo.png');
$mail->build();
$options = new ezcMailSmtpTransportOptions();
$transport = new ezcMailSmtpTransport('smtp.server.com', 'smtpUser', 'smtpPassword', null, $options);
$transport->send($mail);

Since this was the first time I have used eZ components I needed to play around to get in working (checking code which files I need to upload, etc.). The good news if you follow the installation instructions, it’s very easy to setup: Just like me create the include path and include the bootstrap file and you’re done! Beside this you don’t need to upload the whole framework, the classes (you need) are enough (including autoload and Base).

The manual is much better than for Zend, a lot of examples and information. Sure you have to handle a lot of objects, but it seem to me very clear what I have to do. Great framework, I will use it more often!
