How can one prevent users from obtaining the server's current IP address when using PHPmailer?

To prevent users from obtaining the server's current IP address when using PHPmailer, you can set the SMTP server address manually instead of relying on the server's default settings. By specifying the SMTP server address, you can ensure that the server's IP address is not exposed to users.

// Specify the SMTP server address manually to prevent exposing the server's IP address
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'smtp.example.com';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = 'your_smtp_username';
$mail->Password = 'your_smtp_password';
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->Port = 587;
