Try below code it's working for me!

<?php
require("src/PHPMailer.php");
require("src/SMTP.php");
require("src/Exception.php");

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);

try {
//Server settings
$mail->SMTPDebug = SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER;
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'localhost';
$mail->SMTPAuth = false;
$mail->SMTPAutoTLS = false;
$mail->Port = 25;

//Recipients
$mail->setFrom('[email protected]', 'Mailer');
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'XYZTABC');
//Content
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = 'Here is the subject';
$mail->Body    = 'This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>';
$mail->AltBody = 'This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients';

$mail->send();
echo 'Message has been sent';
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "<pre>";
    print_r($e);
    echo "Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: {$mail->ErrorInfo}";
}

i solved this using localhost as smtp server, port 25, no ssl and no authentication. I'm using wordpress, with divi theme on a godaddy server.

This code may help you.

$mail->Host     = "smtpout.secureserver.net";

your host name should be like mydomain.com

$mail->Port = 465;

If i understand correctly, using the SMTP address you are using you need to specify the port too (465).

However, according to the godaddy documentation, you should be using the following SMTP server:

relay-hosting.secureserver.net
