cakephp 2.7 email sending issue. SMTP authentication method not allowed, check if SMTP server requires TLS

I wanted to send email using iPage smtp it is sending email but when I try to send it using mail.mydomain.com it shows the following error

SMTP authentication method not allowed, check if SMTP server requires TLS.

I also trues tls= true/false, with 'tls' => true it gives this error

SMTP server did not accept the connection or trying to connect to non TLS SMTP server using TLS.

I tried many things but no luck, how can I trace the issue in cakephp 2.7

error logged at tmp/error.log is

    2018-08-05 15:02:05 Error: [SocketException] SMTP authentication method not allowed, check if SMTP server requires TLS.

EDITED: to add the following code

class EmailConfig {
    public $smtp = array(
        'transport' => 'Smtp',
        'from' => array('[email protected]' => 'admin'),
        'host' => 'mail.mydomain.com',
        'port' => 25,
        'timeout' => 30,
        'username' => '[email protected]',
        'password' => '********',
        'client' => null,
        'log' => false,
        //'tls' => true, /*tried true false both*/
        //'auth' => true, /*tried true false both*/     
        'charset' => 'utf-8',
        'headerCharset' => 'utf-8',
    );
}
