One of the tutorials has you email a unique key to a user so they can register. I'm attempting to send via a gmail account, using other questions and CI forums I've gotten to the code above, but I get the following errors:</p> <blockquote> <p>Message: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to >ssl://smtp.googlemail.com:465 (Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget >to enable it when you configured PHP?)</p> <p>Filename: libraries/Email.php</p> </blockquote> <p>--</p> <blockquote> <p>Message: fwrite() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given</p> <p>Filename: libraries/Email.php</p> </blockquote> <p>--</p> <blockquote> <p>Message: fgets() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given</p> <p>Filename: libraries/Email.php</p> </blockquote> <p>I'm lost as to the exact steps I need to take to set this up properly. Also, when I move this from local to an actual webhost will it still properly work with my gmail?</p> <p>Thank you very much.</p>
