SMTP::getServerExt() │ public │ WP 1.0

Get metadata about the SMTP server from its HELO/EHLO response. The method works in three ways, dependent on argument value and current state:

1. HELO/EHLO has not been sent - returns null and populates $this->error.
2. HELO has been sent -

   $name == 'HELO': returns server name
   $name == 'EHLO': returns boolean false
   $name == any other string: returns null and populates $this->error

   1. EHLO has been sent -

      $name == 'HELO'|'EHLO': returns the server name
      $name == any other string: if extension $name exists, returns True
      or its options (e.g. AUTH mechanisms supported). Otherwise returns False.

Method of the class: SMTP{}

No Hooks.

Return

String|true|false|null.

Usage

$SMTP = new SMTP();
$SMTP->getServerExt( $name );

$name(string) (required)

Name of SMTP extension or 'HELO'|'EHLO'
