Download & Extend

Where do I download PHPmailer from?

Project:PHPMailer
Version:6.x-2.2
Component:Documentation
Category:support request
Priority:normal
Assigned:Unassigned
Status:active

Issue Summary

The readme file says it can be downloaded here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/files/phpmailer%20for%20php5_6/

Once there, all I am presented with is a file called 'varinsert_for_SPAW2.zip' which does not contain class.phpmailer.php or class.smtp.php

Don't use the big green Download button, instead choose PHPMailer v5.1 (at the time of writing) from the list below it and download one of the archives. Unfortunately this project seems to add more and more packages that have nothing to do with the original PHPMailer to their download pages, so please simply ignore the green button for now.

Please leave this issue open unless there is a better way to link to the most recent PHPMailer package.

I'd suggest to explicitly state "PHPMailer v5.1" (the exact package term as visible on the download page)

  1. in hook_requirements()
  2. on the project page
  3. in the README.txt

Only downside with that is that we'd have to update it everywhere once a new version comes out.

That said, if we're going to do that, then we can as well link to the package folder http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/files/phpmailer%20for%20php5_6... directly.
