PHP - Php(mail) Function And Spam Filters
Hello everyone,
I have website that uses the php(mail) function to notify users when something happens on their account. The site was created for a school district so all the users are district employees where their incoming email is subject to pretty strict spam filtering. I am using headers to indicate to the recipient that the email is coming from support@mysite.com, but I guess the mail servers see past this and recognize that it's coming from a php(mail) function. Because of this, all of the emails being sent are being blocked by the filter. I've tried adding all emails coming from an address that ends with "@mysite.com" but this doesn't work. This is what the addresses look like that the spam filter is actually seeing: elmas156@p3nlhftpg049.shr.prod.phx3.secureserver.net And I can't just add a single address to the white list because each time an email is sent, the letters and numbers after "@" and before "secureserver.net" are different. Here's another address that shows up: elmas156@p3nlhg331.shr.prod.phx3.secureserver.net here is the code that I'm using to send the emails: Code: [Select] <?php $sendto = "$email"; $emailsubject = "Testing Message Report For $cdate."; $emailmessage = "This is a test email."; // To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; // Additional headers $headers .= 'From: MySite.com Report <support@mysite.com>' . "\r\n"; // Mail it mail($sendto, $emailsubject, $emailmessage, $headers); ?> Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do to make every email sent to be recognized by the spam filter as coming from the same email instead of a bunch of random ones? I hope this is making sense to someone because it was very difficult for me to explain in writing. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. Similar TutorialsThe script below works but it goes straight to the junk folder only since i added the parts below to the form. (the form is in another file) How do i stop it from going to the junk folder. Quote $error = $_GET['error']; $httpagent = getenv ('HTTP_USER_AGENT'); $url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; Code: [Select] <?php require_once "Mail.php"; $optional = $_POST['optional']; $error = $_POST['error']; $url = $_POST['url']; $httpagent = $_POST['browser']; $ip = isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) ? $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] : ''; $from = "Web server <removed>"; $to = "Admin <removed>"; $subject = "Someone has submitted an error."; $body = "Someone has submitted an error.\n". "Error: $error\n". "URL: $url\n". "Web browser: $httpagent\n". "Anything else you want to add?: $optional\n". "IP: $ip\n"; $host = "removed"; $username = "removed"; $password = "removed"; $headers = array ('From' => $from, 'To' => $to, 'Subject' => $subject); $smtp = Mail::factory('smtp', array ('host' => $host, 'auth' => true, 'username' => $username, 'password' => $password)); $mail = $smtp->send($to, $headers, $body); if (PEAR::isError($mail)) { echo("<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . "</p>"); } else { header('Location: thank-you.html'); } ?> i think because of my code used to send the mail, on my site, its appearing in the spam folder of most of my clients PLUS myself is their a way to eradicate this? correct headers? etc? Hello Everyone I have written a simple mail function to be emailed to a certain person on submission. On submission they would also like to have attachments sent to them.

Output :
If order placed mail send to abc@gmail.com. I want :
1) If SKU starts with 2, email should go to the mail id abc@gmail.com,
2) If SKU starts with 3, email should go to the mail id xyz@gmail.com,
3) If SKU starts with 4, email should go to the mail id qwe@gmail.com,
FYI - If an order contains 10 items email should go separately based on SKU. But an order id the same must include all the emails.
Hello there, I've come across a issue with using PHP's mail function due to the fact I've tried a assortment of different headers yet Hotmail continues to place my sent emails in the junk folder. Here is my method of emailing my clients: function Email($AccountID, $Subject, $Message) { if($this->IsValidAccount($AccountID)) { $Account = $this->AccountKeys($AccountID); $headers .= 'To: '.$Account['account_client'].' <'.$Account['account_email'].'>' . "\r\n"; $headers .= "From: X-Host <no-reply@X-Host.co.uk>\r\n"; $headers .= "Reply-To: X-Host <no-reply@X-Host.co.uk>\r\n"; $headers .= "Return-Path: no-reply@X-Host.co.uk\r\n"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; $headers .= "Organization: X-Host\r\n"; echo $Account['account_email']. $Subject. $Message; return mail($Account['account_email'], $Subject, $Message, $headers); } else return InvalidAccount; } So could anybody help me out please and tell me what headers I should be using. Hi all, I'm coding an automated mailer for a dentist office. They set appointment dates through a web interface, and then this appointment is mailed to the customer via PHP's mail() function. However, some users are not receving the mail. They claim that it is not even in the junk mail folder. Is it because I'm setting or not setting certain properties in the header? Should I be setting something else? Here is my code Code: [Select] ini_set("SMTP", "mail.isp-provider.net"); $headers = 'From: Schedule Manager <schedule@address.com>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: Schedule Manager <schedule@address.com>' . "\r\n" . 'Bcc: internal@address.com' . "\r\n" . 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion(); mail($customerAddress, $subject, $body, $headers); Note that customerAddress, subject, and body are all just regular normal strings. As I said, it works for most customers, but some customers do not receive the emails. Hello all, I used simple php email function but it send an email in junk folder or spam. Can anyone tell me why is this so? Her is the code: $host = "ssl://smtp.gmail.com"; $port = "465"; $to = " xx@gmail.com"; // note the comma $subject = " $_POST[company_website] "; $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'From: About Wholesale Account' . "<$_POST[email]>\r\n"; $headers .= 'Cc: mail@gmail.com' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Bcc: cc@gmail.com' . "\r\n"; mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); I have a notification system that notifies users of new comments, inside the email I have images, some of the logo, some of different people, everything shows up fine on my computer (yahoo email), however in the iPhones email application no images show up, there are just the blue squares with the question marks in them. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Code: [Select] $from = "Kithell <notifications@kithell.com>"; $headers = "From:" . $from ."\r\n"; $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' .

The problem i am facing is that the function "$mail->Send()" is echoing the smtp server response.How can i stop this function from echo'in anything. Please reply asap. is there a way to make a mail function submit only once? so that if you go forward a page, then back, it won't resubmit? how do I make a link to the correct fpdf file that will be created.......I want to know how I can have an email sent, and then I put a link into the email which looks like: <a href="/ticket.php?eventid=' . $eventid . '">Ticket</a>. does this make sense? do I have to save the document on the server to do this? It just so happens that I have never used the PHP mail() function and i believe i've hit my first major snag. So if any of you brilliant minds out there can just take a second to error check the following code id GREATLY appreciate it! The db is connected earlier and i KNOW all the vars work because the script worked before i stuck in the mail() section. //REVISE else{ $q = mysql_query("INSERT INTO account (Username, Firstname, Lastname, Email, Active, User_type, User_language, User_registration, Pass) VALUES('$username', '$firstname', '$lastname', '$email', '$active', '$type', '$language', '$today', '$password')") or die(mysql_error()); $id = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM account WHERE Username = '$username'"); $message = "Welcome to the exciting world of Star Wars Galaxies : A New Hope! Your new username is ".$username."! Please click the following link or paste it in a web browser to complete the activation process. HTTP://www.swganh.com/account_activate.php?id=".$id;//LANGINSERT $headers = "From: matt@swganh.com.com\r\n"; mail($email, 'SWG:ANH New account registration/confirmaton', $message, $headers);//LANGINSERT } The problem is that im just not getting a mail when i send it to myself... No errors, but no mail either. Thanks in advance guys! How do I include .$email to the mail function. this is my current code: mail($to, $subject, "", $headers); I want do it like this; mail("me@myweb.com".$email, $subject, "", $headers); Thanks Bickey. Hi, I'm trying to do an email from a website and it won't work. It's my first time using mail function, so I'm not sure why it is not working. Please check my code <?php $name = strip_tags($_POST['name']); $email = $_POST['email']; $qst_id=strip_tags($_POST['qst_id']); //if no ajax $opt =$_POST['opt']; $s_id = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $to = 'test@test.com, test1@test.com'; $subject = 'Someone just voted'; $message = "Someone from the ip address ".$s_id; // Always set content-type when sending HTML email $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" .

There is reason to believe that they sometimes don't work. Is this a normal behavior for this? We've been "discussing" whether or not they work for about 2 - 3 days and in most instances they do. However we've had 1 person fill them out and then we never received the emails. I was wondering if some of the people that have worked with php for a longtime have ever had any experience with this type of thing happening. how do i alter this code so that the recipients don't see other email addresses ? <?php
foreach(array('email1','email2','email3','youremail','yourname') as $key) $_POST[$key] = strip_tags($_POST[$key]);
# This part submits a notification to you when
// Email address for copies to be sent to - change to suit
