The company's cloud platform has turned off fsockopen. If you want to use an SMTP external mailbox to send emails, you can only try using curl
I googled first and found a lot of people asking related questions but no relevant answers. I also couldn’t find the relevant classes in phpclasses, so I started to try curl while looking at the relevant protocols of stmp
SMTP protocol
You can find many related examples on the Internet. You can try it yourself by using telnet to connect to the mail server
$ telnet email SMTP service address 25
Trying email service IP address...
Connected to email SMTP service address.

49 $content = "EHLO ".$smtp["url"].$CRLF; // Hello first
50 $content .= "AUTH LOGIN".$CRLF.base64_encode($smtp["username"]).$CRLF.base64_encode($smtp["password"]).$CRLF; // Verify login
51 $content .= "MAIL FROM:".$smtp["from"].$CRLF; // Sending address
52 $content .= "RCPT TO:".$smtp["to"].$CRLF; // Receiving address
53 $content .= "DATA".$CRLF.$data.$CRLF.".".$CRLF; // Send content
54 $content .= "QUIT".$CRLF; // Exit
55
56 curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); // curl receives return data
57 curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, $content);
58 $test = curl_exec($curl);
59 var_dump($test);
60 echo "
rn";
61 var_dump($content);
62
63 // End
64 curl_close($curl);
The above is just the tested php
It took nearly 6 hours of package testing + modification to make the product code compatible with fsockopen and curl
When I have time in the future, I will write an SMTP class that is compatible with fsockopen and curl to simply send emails
think in coding
