How can PHP scripts be combined to send emails from a standalone mail server?

To send emails from a standalone mail server using PHP scripts, you can use the `PHPMailer` library. This library provides a simple and effective way to send emails through an external mail server. You will need to configure the `SMTP` settings of your standalone mail server in the PHP script to send emails successfully.

<?php
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;

require 'vendor/autoload.php'; // Include PHPMailer autoload file

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);

try {
    $mail->isSMTP();
    $mail->Host = 'your_standalone_mail_server_host';
    $mail->SMTPAuth = true;
    $mail->Username = 'your_username';
    $mail->Password = 'your_password';
    $mail->SMTPSecure = PHPMailer::ENCRYPTION_STARTTLS;
    $mail->Port = 587;

    $mail->setFrom('your_email@example.com', 'Your Name');
    $mail->addAddress('recipient@example.com', 'Recipient Name');

    $mail->isHTML(true);
    $mail->Subject = 'Subject';
    $mail->Body = 'Email body';

    $mail->send();
    echo 'Email sent successfully';
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: {$mail->ErrorInfo}";
}
