Hello! I am using my domain's email account to send emails to users, the problem is, upon receiving, a red question mark appearing beside the domain's email. Here is the sample code:

`<?php
require 'PHPMailer-master/PHPMailerAutoload.php';

$mail = new PHPMailer;

$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->SMTPDebug = 0;
$mail->Debugoutput = 'html';
$mail->Host = "mail.mydomain.com";
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "[email protected]";
$mail->Password = "emailpassword";
$mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'Domain Name');
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'User Name');

$mail->Subject = "This is the subject.";
$mail->Body = "This is a Message.";

if (!$mail->send()) {
echo "Error sending message";
} else {
echo "Message sent!";
}
?>`

What do I need to do to make the red question mark disappears?

As of now I am just only testing PHPMailer out, and hopefully, if I resolved this, will implement it on the website.

What do you mean by "red question mark". Are you talking about when they receive the email in something such as gmail, and they are getting the message flagged with a question mark in their webmail client?

The red question mark appears instead of the profile photo, and when you hover it, it says that gmail.com can't verify that domain.com actually send this email.

Assuming you have your domain set up properly to send email (reverse dns, etc), try using DKIM with phpmailer. I had issues with gmail saying emails weren't legitimate before I enabled DKIM.

How? I asked my hosting provider and it says that DKIM and SPF is already enabled to my account, I am using a shared hosting service.

It might help if you posted a screen shot. It's really unclear where this problem is.

That is only my problem, when sending an email using my domain's email + phpmailer I get that. (I even tried domain's email + gmail and domain's email + mail() and still get that.)

Can you view source on the message and post the headers here; they will usually say what the problem is.

No, do what I said - view source of the message and post the headers, as text.

The critical part is this:

Received-SPF: softfail (google.com: domain of transitioning [email protected] does not designate 23.83.214.30 as permitted sender) client-ip=23.83.214.30;
Authentication-Results: mx.google.com;
spf=softfail (google.com: domain of transitioning [email protected] does not designate 23.83.214.30 as permitted sender) [email protected]

You need to add your source address to your SPF record; there's nothing wrong with your code or the message.

Do you mean by source address is this 23.83.214.30 ?

Synchro commented Dec 7, 2016

Yes. You would add that to your SPF using a clause like ip4:23.83.214.30, or an appropriate include. It will let you get an SPF 'pass' result.

That message was not sent with PHPMailer. It has SPF, DKIM and DMARC failures, so I’m not surprised you’re having trouble.

If you’re not going to read what I said there’s no point in me saying anything else. This is not a PHPMailer issue.

@prabhmeet133 ... Its been said that the issue you are referring to is a DNS/Domain Config problem.
Authentication-Results: mx.google.com;
dkim=fail
spf=softfail
dmarc=fail

So you need to address the problem ... outside phpmailer
