SMTP -> get_lines(): $str is "504 5.7.4 Unrecognized authentication type. "
SMTP -> get_lines(): $data is "504 5.7.4 Unrecognized authentication type. "
SMTP -> ERROR: AUTH not accepted from server: 504 5.7.4 Unrecognized authentication type.
What authentication are you using. I think thats causing the issue. Post the code here so that we can help more.

remember that Gmail needs SSL for connecting and also they don't use the standard SMTP port. If you are using an old version of phpMailer you need to make a kind of hack to put it working.
Here there is a page that can help you

- I've tried with my assigned user/password, but the administrator said there's not even a need to use a user/password when sending. So I also tried without it, with no success.
- I even tried with smtp.gmail.com
UPDATE (4/16/2009)
ok, I found my problem.
I am using an SMTP server that permits sending messages without authentication. Therefore I removed the login and password from my code. But I forgot to set the "uses authentication" flag to false. Now it's working.
Thanks for the Help!
