I suggest you look into getting composer  https   getcomposer org Composer makes getting third-party libraries a LOT easier and using a single autoloader for all of them  It also standardizes on where all your dependencies are located  along with some automatization capabilities   Download https   getcomposer org composer phar to C  Inetpub wwwroot php  Delete your C  Inetpub wwwroot php PHPMailer  directory   Use composer phar to get the phpmailer package using the command line to execute  cd C  Inetpub wwwroot php php composer phar require phpmailer phpmailer   After it is finished it will create a C  Inetpub wwwroot php vendor directory along with all of the phpmailer files and generate an autoloader   Next in your main project configuration file you need to include the autoload file   require once  C  Inetpub wwwroot php vendor autoload php    The vendor autoload php will include the information for you to use  mail   new  PHPMailer   Additional information on the PHPMailer package can be found at https   packagist org packages phpmailer phpmailer

Doesn t sound like all the files needed to use that class are present   I would start over    Download the package from https   github com PHPMailer PHPMailer by clicking on the  Download ZIP  button on the far lower right of the page  extract the zip file upload the language folder  class phpmailer php  class pop3 php  class smtp php  and PHPMailerAutoload php all into the same directory on your server   I like to create a directory on the server called phpmailer to place all of these into  Include the class in your PHP project  require once  phpmailer PHPMailerAutoload php

This answers in an extension to what avs099 has given above  for those who are still having problems   1 Makesure that you have php openssl dll installed else find it online and install it    2 Go to your php ini  find extension php openssl dll enable it uncomment  3 Go to github  and downland the latetest version  6 0 at this time   4 Extract the master copy  into the path that works better for you I recommend  the same directory as the  calling file   Now copy this code into your foo-mailer php  and render it with your gmail stmp authentications       require   PHPMailer-master src PHPMailer php        require   PHPMailer-master src SMTP php        require   PHPMailer-master src Exception php           mail   new PHPMailer PHPMailer PHPMailer         mail- gt IsSMTP           mail- gt CharSet  UTF-8        mail- gt Host    smtp gmail com        mail- gt SMTPDebug   1        mail- gt Port   465     465 or 587        mail- gt SMTPSecure    ssl          mail- gt SMTPAuth   true        mail- gt IsHTML true          Authentication      mail- gt Username    foo gmail com        mail- gt Password                     Set Params      mail- gt SetFrom  foo gmail com         mail- gt AddAddress  bar gmail com         mail- gt Subject    Test        mail- gt Body    hello          if   mail- gt Send              echo  Mailer Error       mail- gt ErrorInfo         else           echo  Message has been sent            Disclaimer The original owner of the code above is avs099 with just my little input     Take note of the additional   a   PHPMailer PHPMailer  namespace needed for name conflict resolution   b  The  require   PHPMailer-master src Exception php     It was missing in avs099 s code thus the problem encountered by aProgger you need that line to tell the mailer class where the Exception class is located

This is just namespacing  Look at the examples for reference - you need to either use the namespaced class or reference it absolutely  for example   use PHPMailer PHPMailer PHPMailer  use PHPMailer PHPMailer Exception     Load composer s autoloader require  vendor autoload php

Just from reading what you have written  you will need to add the file class phpmailer php to your directory as well

all answers are outdated now  Most current version  as of Feb 2018  does not have autoload anymore  and PHPMailer should be initialized as follows    lt  php    require   home site libs PHPMailer-master src PHPMailer php      require   home site libs PHPMailer-master src SMTP php          mail   new PHPMailer PHPMailer PHPMailer         mail- gt IsSMTP       enable SMTP       mail- gt SMTPDebug   1     debugging  1   errors and messages  2   messages only      mail- gt SMTPAuth   true     authentication enabled      mail- gt SMTPSecure    ssl      secure transfer enabled REQUIRED for Gmail      mail- gt Host    smtp gmail com        mail- gt Port   465     or 587      mail- gt IsHTML true        mail- gt Username    xxxxxx        mail- gt Password    xxxx        mail- gt SetFrom  xxxxxx xxxxx com         mail- gt Subject    Test        mail- gt Body    hello        mail- gt AddAddress  xxxxxx xxxxx com          if   mail- gt Send              echo  Mailer Error       mail- gt ErrorInfo         else           echo  Message has been sent            gt

PHPMailerAutoload needs to be in the same folder as class phpmailer php  This is the PHPMailerAutoload code that I assume this     filename   dirname   FILE    DIRECTORY SEPARATOR  class   strtolower  classname    php
