a well known easy to use wrapper is phpmailer (STW), alternatively
check out Manuel Lemos' mail related offerings at phpclasses.org (his code
is, afaict, better but also a little more involved.

Drew a blank off the archive, so here goes...
I'm working on some forms for our company website, all of which simply have
to be mailed to us by email.
After verifying that the content of all the fields is valid and the proper
type, it builds the email message as following. This all works great, but I
want a simpler/easier way to reuse the code (we have 3 forms, with
distinctively different content, but the mail process remains the same), so
something that will do the below, but can be reduced to something like
grabbing a text file and fill in the blanks would be nice, instead of this:
// prepare message
if(! $error) {
$message = "Information submitted with Tee Time booking form:\r\n";
$message .= "Name and address:\r\n\r\n";
$message .= "$name\r\n";
$message .= "$address\r\n";
$message .= "$city\r\n";
$message .= "$state $postcode\r\n\r\n";
$message .= "Email: $email\r\n";
$message .= "Phone: $phone\r\n";
$message .= "\r\n\r\nBooking info:\r\n\r\n";
$message .= "Arrival: $a_month $a_day\r\n";
$message .= "Departure: $d_month $d_day\r\n";
$message .= "Persons: $persons\r\n";
$message .= "Rooms: $rooms\r\n";
$message .= "\r\nGolf Courses\r\n\r\n";
for($i = 1; $i < 8; $i++) {
if($_POST['course_'.$i] != 0) {
$message .= 'Course: '.$_POST['course_'.$i]."\r\n";
$message .= 'Date: '.$_POST['month_'.$i].'
'.$_POST['day_'.$i]."\r\n";
$message .= 'Time: '.$_POST['teetime_'.$i]."\r\n";
$message .= '# of golfers: '.$_POST['golfers_'.$i]."\r\n";
}
}
if(! empty($comments)) {
$message .= "\r\nComments:\r\n$comments\r\n";
}
$message .= "\r\nUser Client Info:\r\n";
$message .= 'User IP: '.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."\r\nUser agent:
".$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']."\r\n\r\n";
// NOTE: This code only builds the actual message, the headers are built
elsewhere in the code.
// This is our golf-package quote request (I work for a hotel) form, where
you can book up to 7 tee times. Thus the iteration in the middle, to run
through the 7 tee time fields.
