$mail = new PHPMailer();
            $mail->IsSMTP();
            $mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
            $mail->Username = "[email protected]";
            $mail->Password = "password";
            $mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";
            $mail->Port = 587;
            $mail->SetFrom("[email protected]");
            $mail->AddAddress($cash[0]['email']);
            $mail->isHTML(true);
            $mail->Subject = "CS50 Apparels: You just bought an item!";
            $mail->Body = "You just bought".$row['suit_name']."for".$row['price']."dollars!";
            $mail->AltBody = "You just bought".$row['suit_name']."for".$row['price']."dollars!";
            if ($mail->Send() == false) 
            {
                die($mail->ErrorInfo); 
            }

I fixed my previous issues, but now I'm getting an error: "The following From address failed: [email protected] The following From address failed: [email protected] SMTP server error: 5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at 530 5.5.1 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/14257 79sm22609146pfs.42 - gsmtp" I tried checking out the link, but it's not the answer to my question.

Missing semicolon? $mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com" If that's not it, try an internet search "phpmailer unexpected t_variable". Lots of folks outside CS50 have experience with phpmailer.

I see that one crucial property is missed:

$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
