RE: [PHP] two small issues with php mail
Brad, This comment is extracted directly from PHPMailer source (before the implementation for the function AddBCC) /** * Adds a Bcc address. Note: this function works * with the SMTP mailer on win32, not with the mail * mailer. * @param string $address * @param string $name * @return void */ I don't really know the internals of how and why Bcc won't work with the mail function on windows, but if these guys who developed PHPMailer say so... Holy Word, so I wouldn't expect the mail function on Windows to work with Bcc. What you can do? Well... if Bcc is a requirement and you MUST do the code for Windows+PHP you'll have to write you own code to login to a SMTP server or use PHPMailer... (or any other ready made solution). If this is an assignment I really doubt your teacher's expectations are so high to let you go and develop such a thing (a class to interface a SMTP server). If you are testing the code in your Windows PC, I would recommend you testing your code in a real-world linux server, if that's an option for you. Other options include testing it on a linux box (if you have one, or you have a Windows-Linux dual boot as many people have) or even downloading the VMWare Player (http://www.vmware.com/) and one of the linux appliances that come with the LAMP suite from the start (if you don't have linux, or want to run linux while working in windows applications such as Dreamweaver). That said, don't blame PHP, don't blame us, and don't even blame your code, Bcc is not working due to an issue of the mail function in Windows (don't know why, I'm not an expert in the subject, and don't care either, I use PHPMailer). If you get the issue solved, we would also like to hear it.

secondly, this would have been averted if you would turn on error
reporting and display errors (something that should be used when
developing).
Something along the line of this at the top of your script will do the
trick.

error_reporting(E_ALL);

THis is a simple mail function. all it does sends mail with the message as the mail body to my address. Thats it. no extra complexity. But the problem is I got the mail very late. after 4-6 hours. That is huge time difference. I shouldn't take more than 3-5 mins.

Re: [PHP] mail() takes too much time
You might want to consider a few things: Queueing your email in a database table and sending it out in a separate process. or Finding a mail daemon that will queue quickly for you and not send directly on adding to the queue. I use the first of the two options and it works quite well for us.

Here it comes: I had a mail (specifically in the headers) function call like this: $header = ; $header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; $header .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n; $header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n; $header .= Reply-To: .utf8_decode($nombreVar). .utf8_decode($apellidosVar).$mailVar\r\n; $header .= X-Mailer: PHP/.phpversion().\r\n; $header .= X-Priority: 1; and the mail(...) function always returned TRUE, but the mail was NOT sent. After hours of... trial/error debugging, I noticed from an example that it should be: $header = ; $header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' . \r\n; $header .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . \r\n; $header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . \r\n; $header .= Reply-To: .utf8_decode($nombreVar). .utf8_decode($apellidosVar).$mailVar\r\n; $header .= X-Mailer: PHP/.phpversion().\r\n; $header .= X-Priority: 1; Question: Why? What's the real difference between $header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' . \r\n; and $header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; ? If somebody knows, please let me know!

Re: [PHP] mail() silly question
Hi,
Question:
Why? What's the real difference between
$header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' . \r\n;
and
$header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED];
Your second declaration is incorrect: you start with a single quote ('),
and you end with a double ().
So, you'd say ok, let's fix it:
$header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]';
BUT, special chars like \n or \r need to be inside a double-quoted
string in order to be taken into account.
This one is then correct:
$header .= 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' . \r\n;
This one as well:
$header .= From: [EMAIL PROTECTED];

Anyway, the reason is interpolation. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php Under Single quoted: .. escape sequences for special characters will not be expanded when they occur in single quoted strings.

RE: [PHP] mail() silly question
As a general rule, use ' ' for literal strings and for strings you want escaped characters and such to take effect. Example: echo 'foo\nbar' will echo foo\nbar where as echo foo\nbar will echo foo bar Hope this helped.

[PHP] mail() issue
Hello All, I am having an issue with mail. include '../../Process/include/LDAP.php'; echo $user_email; $to = $user_email; $subject = 'Request Submitted Successfully!'; $message = Congratulations!\nYour request has been successfully submitted.\nThis is an automated email, please do not reply.; mail($to, $subject, $message); In the include file I am querying Active Directory and pulling the email address for the current user and assigning it to the $user_email variable. (This works fine) Then for a sanity check I am echoing out the retrieved value. (Displays the correct alue) Then, I am assigning the values for my message variables and generating the mail() message. As far as I can tell everything looks okay, however when I run my script I get the following error: PHP Warning: mail() [function.mailhttp://develop1/credit%20card%20processing/Submit/ChildSupport/function.mail]: SMTP server response: 504 br /: Recipient address rejected: need fully-qualified address.

Re: [PHP] Problem with php mail
Jason, There's a chance your domain link is listed on a spam URL realtime blocklist. Try using http://www.rulesemporium.com/cgi-bin/uribl.cgi to find out. This might also be totally wrong, just throwing that around as a possibility since you mentioned the problem happens with URLs. Does the problem also happen when you send an html email without any links? It would be really helpful to find out what part of gmail's antispam solution doesn't like your message. Does the message header information provide any clues?

Re: [PHP] mail function from and reply to address problem
mail function returns 1(true) whether or not i'm sending to the new virtual host domain name or any random domain name. turns out sendmail function does the same thing, so it looks like it's a sendmail problem... but how is that possible if i've never configured anything for this new domain except for http virtual host config? hmm.

Re: [PHP] mail function from and reply to address problem
figured it out... the domain in question's dns is set to CNAME to the main domain on that server, whereas, the remaining domains are just using the A record with the IP. I changed one of the other domains to use the CNAME and it did the same thing. So looks like thats the culprit. I'll have to comb through the sendmail configuration and find out if I can reverse this behavior.

RE: [PHP] mail function from and reply to address problem
Sounds more like the mail server than PHP. Although weird anyway ! What mail server are you using : local/remote, smtp/sendmail/qmail ? Try using whatever method and send a mail through this server from outside of PHP with the same problem parameters ? Does that work ? It should either eliminate PHP, or point the finger ! I suspect eliminate but you never know.. That's where I think I'd start anyway. Send uz an update when you have some answers.

RE: [PHP] mail() only working with php-cli
Thanks a lot for helping. I found the problem while trying so su to the www-user, where I was immediately told /bin/bash: permission denied. Rather unusual... The owner of the server has mistakenly changed many permissions in the /(s)bin, /usr/(s)bin directories, so that most of the files were chmod 700 instead of 755. The suid flags were also gone. It took me a while to rebuild the permissions, but after that mail() worked as it should. That being said, it really would have saved me a lot of time and anger if mail() were a little bit more verbose in situations like that. A simple error message like /usr/sbin/sendmail: permission denied would have made it.

Oliver, Yes I also analyzed the log files from apache, but all they are telling me is that I am accesing the file mail.php with my browser. Error.log stays empty.

Andy That isn't very rare, sbin is a folder that only root can access(atleast that's how it was designed) Since you can execute the PHP CLI binary, you have SSH access to the machine. You first should check the permissions of the sendmail binary with ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail and check the output. If you have access to the root account, then you could also try to su to the user PHP is running on and then try to access the sendmail binary.

Re: [PHP] Mail function
Hi,
What i understand is, you have written a new function for sending emails.
Are you passing all the variables to that function? If not, you have to
pass.
or you can use my function
?php
// function declaration, This function can send only HTML emails
function sendMail ($toEmail, $subject, $message, $fromName, $fromEmail)
{
$header .= From: $from_name $fromEmail\n;
$header .= Reply-To: $fromEmail\n;
$header .= MIME-Version: 1.0\n;
$header .= Content-type: text/html; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed\n;
$header .= Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n;
$header .= X-Mailer: php\n\n;
mail($toEmail, $subject, $message, $header);
}
// variable values and usage
$toEmail= [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$subject = Hello, This is test;
$message= Hellow Shafiq, brbr This is test
messagebrbrRegardsbrShafiq;
$fromName= Sender Name;
$fromEmail= [EMAIL PROTECTED];
sendMail ($toEmail, $subject, $message, $fromName, $fromEmail);
?

Re: [PHP] Mail function
Hi,
Tried it...but it didn't work...Not sure why. I am using a respectable ISP
and they are looking at the problem although they tend to take their time.
I figure I must not be passing the variable. I will post my entire code.

you should check those values first before putting them into mail().
they can contain spammer tricks like putting newlines in the subject and

what is the charset of the webpage displaying the form which triggers
this function? it must be set to the same value as the email otherwise
your email sending function won't receive the croatian letters at all,
so it cannot send them too...

Re: [PHP] PHP mail() problem
Hi.
Recently I have this kind of issue.
This is a possible solution:
$text=message text;
$subject=message subject;
$header=From: [EMAIL PROTECTED].
MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n.
Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\n.
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\r\n;
$subject2=utf8_encode($subject);
$text2=utf8_encode($text);
mail([EMAIL PROTECTED],$subject,$text2,$header);
This encodes message to UTF-8 and should work.

Several things are wrong.
I think Croatian letters need ISO-8859-2 character set. utf-8 is fine
too. Make sure you use the same encoding as you use for the HTML page
where your form is.
Other than that, you should not use 8bit content transfer encoding when
you have non-ASCII characters in the text.
You should use quoted-printable encoding for the body and q-encoding for
the headers.
You have multiple Content-Type headers. Only one is right. For messages
with HTML, you should use only multipart/alternative. However the body
must enclose both a text/plain and a text/html alternative parts.
This is all a bit complicated to do with a small script like you have.
It is much simpler to use ready to use components to do the hard work of
message assembly for you.
I use this MIME message class. It can handle all you need including
non-ASCII character encoding. Take a look at the
test_simple_html_mail_message.php example script.

Re: [PHP] mail header questions solved
You can use the fifth parameter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This will cause the from to be from [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards, Emmett Hi Emmett, Thanks this works. I already tried this on my local machine and it didn't work but it does work on the webserver so apparantly there's something wrong with my own MTA settings.

[PHP] mail header questions
Hi everyone,
I'm working on a mailform and it's kind of working but I still have 2
problems:
1) I can't get the From header right, when I receive the test mail the sender
is apache
2) The BCC headers (there's more then one) are not stripped.
Here's my script:
/* haal de gegevens op */
$to=$_POST['to'];
$bcc=$_POST['bcc'];
$subject=$_POST['subject'];
$bericht=$_POST['bericht'];
/* maak van de bcctjes een array en bouw hier de bcc headers van */
$bcc_array = explode (,, $bcc);
for ($n = 0; $n count($bcc_array); $n++)
{
$bcclist=each($bcc_array);
$bccheaders = $bccheaders . bcc: . $bcclist[value] . \r\n;
}
/*Nu gaan we een aantal headers bekijken en toevoegen.*/
$headers .= To: $to \r\n;
/* from adres */
$headers .= From: $mainmail \r\n;
/*Deze twee headers zorgen ervoor dat je een bericht met HTML kan
toevoegen*/
$headers .= MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n;
$headers .= Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n;
/*Deze header zorgt ervoor dat als er een fout is ontstaan bij het
versturen
van een mailtje, dat je kan aangeven naar welke e-mailadres de fout/error
gestuurd wordt.*/
$headers .= Return-Path: $mainmail\r\n;
/*Deze header zorgt ervoor dat als ontvangers een reply terug willen
sturen
naar jou, dat hun reactie naar dit adres wordt terug gestuurd.*/
$headers .= Reply-To: $mainmail\r\n;
$headers .= X-Mailer: PHP . phpversion() .\r\n;
$headers = $headers . $bccheaders;
mail($to, $subject, $bericht, $headers);
echo Mail met onderwerp $subject is verstuurd naar $bcc en
$mainmail;
Thanks

[PHP] mail() encoded subject line
Hi, I hope this is not too off topic but I have a problem when I use mail(). When I add the header Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 the body of the mail is encoded fine but the subject is not encoded. I've tried to utf8_encode() and utf8_decode() the subject text but neither helps. Any idea of how to pass what encoding to use on an email subject? Thanks!

[PHP] Mail Problem
I have an issue with sending email via PHP which may be a configuration problem
with either PHP, Apache, or possibly a Sendmail, but I don't know which yet. I
figured I'd start here first.
Here's the situation. I have several webpages that send email to users for
various reasons. We have our webserver, an intranet webserver, configured to
connect to our smtp server which sits on a different box. The script looks like
this:
?PHP
$from = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$to = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
$subject = Test;
$msg = This is a test from my site\n\nTimestamp: . date(r);
$headers = From:$from\r\n;
if(!mail($to,$subject,$msg,$headers)) { die(Unable to send); }
?
This works great when it works. Users receive email as expected and when they
hit reply it goes back to the webmaster email address. The problem is if the
to email address isn't a valid one. When this happens, the mail server bounces
the message back to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I've tried adding reply-to to the mail headers and that doesn't work either.
We tried sending the same failed message using webmin and that worked great,
which is why I believe this to be a PHP or Apache problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Robbert

Re: [PHP] Mail Problem
Why not validate the email address before you send. I use something
like this to kick back an error that says you put in a bad email
address. It won't tell you about a wrong email address, but it will
tell you if they forgot to put in the @ sign and stuff.
if (!preg_match(/^(.+)@[a-zA-Z0-9-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+$/si, $data))
{ $email_error = yes; }
