PHPMailer don't send e-mail

Question

I'm trying to send mail over PHPMailer. Since 10 days PHPMailer don't send e-mail and throw an exception:

{
    "code": "ERROR",
    "message": "SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting"
}

This is below my code: It was working

$mail = new PHPMailer(true);

        try {
            // Server settings
            $mail->isSMTP();
            $mail->Host       = 'localhost';
            $mail->SMTPAuth   = false;
            $mail->Port       = 25;
            // Recipients
            $mail->setFrom($this->mailAddress, $this->mailName);
            $mail->addAddress($email);
            // Content
            $mail->isHTML(true);
            $mail->Subject = 'Réinitialisation du mot de passe';
            $mail->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
            $mail->Encoding = 'base64';
            $mail->Body    = 'test';
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            echo "Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: {$mail->ErrorInfo}";
        }

        return $mail->send();

I tried to upgrade PHPMailer to 6.1.7. I thought that PHPMailer had a security issues according to packagist .

Can someone help me to fix this error
