And I have the following code in my emailer class

    function __construct(){
        parent::__construct();
    }

    public function sendMail(){
        $config=array(
                'protocol'=>'smtp',
                'smtp_host'=> 'ssl://smtp.googlemail.com',
                'smtp_port' => 587,
                'smtp_user' => '[email protected]',
                'smtp_pass' => 'signature08'
        );

        $this->load->library('email',$config);
        $this->email->set_newline("\r\n");

        $this->email->from("[email protected]");
        $this->email->to("[email protected]");
        $this->email->subject("this is a sample mail");
        $this->email->message("this is a sample message please check this");

        if($this->email->send()){
            //$data['message']="Email sent successfully";
            return true;

        }else{
            //$data['message']="Couldnt sent the email, please provide me valid email address";
            return false;
        }

    }
}

The code works fine, please ensure you have the openssl extension loaded.

Do you have openssl extension actually loaded? Use a phpinfo();in a .php file to see if the openssl extension is loaded or Have you done any modifications to php.ini that caused this?
