Sending Email

I'm using PHPMailer to send an email, but when I'm going to send it, the following message appears:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method PHPMailer::SetForm()

The line code corresponding to the line mentioned in the error is this one:

$mail->SetFrom($email, $name);

Does anyone know why is that a fatal error and how can I fix it?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Ana

What version of PHPMailer are you using?

try this with the code you have.

Or it might be worth trying to replace: $mail->SetFrom($email, $name);

With: $mail->From = $email; $mail->FromName = $name;

Fatal error: Call to undefined method PHPMailer::Set*Form*()

The line code corresponding to the line mentioned in the error is this one:

$mail->Set*From*($email, $name);

Form != From... Unless im missing something else or the typo is in your post.
