Email me codeigniter

Question

someone would kindly help me, it’s a problem I’ve looked for here and haven’t found the mistake yet.

The problem is this, I am trying to send email on the server I am currently using where it is ssl and smtp, but it keeps giving the same error and I am not able to find the problem more than a week ago, the code in my controller is as follows:

        $config['protocol'] = 'smtp';  
        $config['charset'] = 'UTF-8';
        $config['smtp_host'] = 'smtp.XXXX';
        $config['smtp_user'] = 'XXX';
        $config['smtp_pass'] = 'XXXX';
        $config['smtp_port'] = 587;
        $config['smtp_keepalive'] = TRUE;
        $config['smtp_crypto'] = 'ssl';
        $this->email->initialize($config);
        $this->email->from("[email protected]",'teste');
        $this->email->to("[email protected]");
        $this->email->subject("teste");
        $this->email->message("teste");
        $this->email->send();
        echo $this->email->print_debugger();
    

and he’s making the following mistakes:

Message: fsockopen(): SSL Operation failed with code 1. Openssl Error messages: error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:Unknown Protocol

Message: fsockopen(): Failed to enable Crypto

Message: fsockopen(): Unable to connect to ssl://smtp.XXX:587 (Unknown error)

I’m not getting anywhere, I already put the following code in php.ini:

extension=php_openssl.dll

however it did not work, using phpinfo and I realized that in the Registered Stream Socket Transports has ssl,sslv3,tsl among others but does not have sslv2 but I do not know if this influences, if this must be the mistake or what would be the problem.

I tried to use phpmailer but I couldn’t use it correctly, it says that the class is incorrect or something like that, so I don’t really know what to do.

phpmailer without the use of codeiginter is working with the settings, however in codeiginter I can not send using the same settings, someone could kindly help me, it is a little difficult to find something that helps in this part.

many thanks to all for the help.
