    I am failing to send form contents to email. I am getting the following error:

    : Warning
    Message: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed:Name or service not known
    
    Filename: libraries/Email.php
    
    Line Number: 1986
    
    Severity: Warning
    
    Message: fsockopen(): unable to connect to ssl://smtp.123mailsetup.com:25   (php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known)
    
    Filename: libraries/Email.php
    
       Line Number: 1986
    

    My line 1986 is

    $this->smtp_timeout);
    

    Part of the code in my controller

    $config = Array(
    'protocol' => 'smtp',
    'smtp_host' => 'smtp.xxxx.com',
    'smtp_port' => 465,
    'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
    'smtp_pass' => 'xxxxxxxx',
    'mailtype'  => 'html', 
    'charset'   => 'iso-8859-1'
    );
                    $this->load->library('email', $config);
                    $this->email->from('[email protected]', 'Mailsetup');
                    $this->email->to($email); 
    
                    $this->email->subject('Domain transfer');
                    $this->email->message( '<html><body>Domain to be transfered        '.$domain.' <br> Domain owner '.$name.' , <br> email '.$email.'
    
                    </body></html>' );   
    
                    $this->email->send();
