I want to send an email to user from my application with the content of the email loaded from a view . This is the code i’ve tried out till now: 

$toemail = "user@email.id";

$subject = "Mail Subject is here";
$mesg = $this->load->view('template/email');

$this->load->library('email');

$config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
$config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';

$this->email->initialize($config);

$this->email->to($toemail);
$this->email->from($fromemail, "Title");
$this->email->subject($subject);
$this->email->message($mesg);

    1. You need to call $this->load->library('email'); within the controller as well for the email in CI to work.
    2. Also , in your code : $fromemail is not initialized.
    3. You need to have SMTP support on your server.
    4. $config should be declared as an array before assigning values and keys.

    Working Code:

    $this->load->library('email');
$fromemail="ad@c.com";
$toemail = "user@email.id";
$subject = "Mail Subject is here";
$data=array();
// $mesg = $this->load->view('template/email',$data,true);
// or
$mesg = $this->load->view('template/email','',true);


$config=array(
'charset'=>'utf-8',
'wordwrap'=> TRUE,
'mailtype' => 'html'
);

$this->email->initialize($config);

$this->email->to($toemail);
$this->email->from($fromemail, "Title");
$this->email->subject($subject);
$this->email->message($mesg);
$mail = $this->email->send();

    Edit:
    $mesg = $this->load->view('template/email',true); should be having the true as pointed out by lycanian. By setting it as true , it doesn’t send data to the output stream but it will return as a string.

    Edit:
    $this->load->view(); need a second parameter with data or empty like $mesg = $this->load->view(view,data,true);, if not it wont work
