PHPMailer does not give error message?

Im creating a little Email Script at the Moment with PHPMailer + SMTP Authentication. I tried now sending an E-Mail using a wrong Passwort - but it still gives back "true" for success... anyone have any idea?`

Here is My Function, that i use to call sendmail:

$erfolg_email = true;
    foreach($empfaenger as $value)
    {

        $response = $this->sendMail($smtp, $value, $content, $files);
        if($response != true)
        {

            return $response;
            $erfolg_email = false;

        }

    }

And here is my PHPMailer Function

function sendMail($smtp, $empfaenger, $content, $attachements)
{

    $mail = new PHPMailer(true);

    try{

        $mail->IsSMTP();    
        $mail->Host = $smtp['SMTP'];
        $mail->SMTPAuth = true;     // turn on SMTP authentication
        $mail->Port = $smtp['Port'];
        $mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
        if($smtp['Domain'] != '')
        {

            $username = $smtp['Username']."@".$smtp['Domain'];

        }else
        {

            $username = $smtp['Username'];

        }
        $mail->Username = $username;  // SMTP username
        $mail->Password = $smtp['Password']; // SMTP password
        $mail->SMTPOptions = array(
            'ssl' => array(
                'verify_peer' => false,
                'verify_peer_name' => false,
                'allow_self_signed' => true
            )
        );
        $mail->From = $smtp['Email_Address'];
        $mail->AddAddress($empfaenger);
        $mail->WordWrap = 50;
        $mail->isHTML(true);

        foreach($attachements as $value)
        {

            $mail->AddAttachment($value);

        }
        $mail->Subject = "Mahnung";
        $mail->Body = $content;
        $mail->AltBody = "Sie haben offene Posten";

        if($mail->Send() == true)
        {

            echo $mail->ErrorInfo;
            return $mail->ErrorInfo;

        }else
        {

            return $mail->ErrorInfo;

        }

    } catch (phpmailerException $e) {

        return $e->errorMessage(); //Pretty error messages from PHPMailer

    } catch (Exception $e) {

        return $e->getMessage(); //Boring error messages from anything else!

    }
}

$smtp contains an array with all the SMTP INformation, Email address, Signature, Smtp Server, Port, Username, Password and SSL Usage...

I am pretty sure, I am using the wrong username and password, as no Email is getting through - but i still get "true" as a result of the send mail function... its not even echoing the error. I did even try to give an Error Message, when sending is successfull... But nothing

Any help is apreciated!

Cheers

In your php mailer function file itself you can add this coding at the last:

$send = $mail->Send(); //Send the mails
    if($send){
        echo '<center><h3>Mail sent successfully</h3></center>';
    }
    else{
        echo '<center><h3>Mail error: </h3></center>'.$mail->ErrorInfo;
    }
}

Your function sendMail doesn't return a boolean. Since it's an array / object the result is always true in this case. Try printing $response before your if statement and you will see the error.
