PHP - Email Connector Script

Hi Everyone!  Thanks in advance for taking the time to review my post.  I am pretty new to PHP so please excuse my ignorance.

I am working a project for myself.  I want to be able to send out newsletters to my customers and sponsors.    I have written the code and here it is:

<?php
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$email = "bubba@bubba.com";
$headers = "From: $email";
$email_list = file("elist.txt");
$total_emails = count($email_list);
for ($counter=0; $counter<$total_emails; $counter++) {
   $email_list[$counter] = trim($email_list[$counter]);
   }
$to = implode(",",$email_list);


if ( mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers) ) {
   echo "The email has been sent!";
   } else {
   echo "The email has failed!";
   }
?>

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In my elist.txt file - I have two fields.   Name and email.

Bubba|bubba@bubba.com
Oohay|oohay@yahoo.com

If i leave the names out of this file, the email script works great!

I want to leave the names in there and reference them in my email that I am sending out to be more personal. 

Can this be done and can you help?

Thanks!
Mike

Code: [Select]
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name3 WHERE review_show='n'";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
$num_results=mysql_num_rows($result);
if($num_results > 1){
$message="You have ".$num_results." reviews unapproved.";
mail('example@example.com','GHP Reviews', $message, 'From: example@example.com');
}

$sql2="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name4 WHERE rma_issued='n'";
$result2=mysql_query($sql2);
$num_results2=mysql_num_rows($result2);
if($num_results2 > 1){
$message="You have ".$num_results2." RMA Numbers Requested.";
mail('example@example.com','GHP RMA Number Requests', $message, 'From: example@example.com');
}

The reviews email is being sent, however, the RMA email is not.

EDIT: Nevermind, $num_results and $num_results2 should have been > 0 not > 1.

Alright, so here's the problem. I am trying to code up a PHP script that basically sends an email. Sounds basic, right? Here's the tricky part.

Using HTML or any other code will simply just load your default mail client and try to send it with that, what I need is a script that sends it via my website.

I'll try to explain,

Name: (This will send me their name they type)
Email: (Same as above)
Submit: (This will be the button they press when they submit the fore-mentioned details.)

What would need to happen is the PHP would need to include the data entered in the name, and email field, (after the user clicks the submit button) copy it, and paste it into a email that is sent to my email address. (My email needs to be hidden obviously)

But this needs to be done server side, without opening the person's mail client.

And then once the email is sent, they need to be re-directed to a page.

Only problem is, I CANNOT code PHP to save my life, I know this script is possible I've had it done before but lost the script

Much appreciated anyone who can help me out on this one!
   

I am experiencing compleate brain failure here please help if you can.

This is my email script, how do i include multiple input, into the $body tag? example: vieweremail + comments + phonenumber + alot other stuff??

As of now i can only make it include 1 user input field thats is 'vieweremail'.
<?php
 $to = $_POST['email_addy'];
 $subject = "  your dating app";
 $body = $_POST['vieweremail'];
 if (mail($to, $subject, $body)) {
   echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
  } else {
   echo("<p>Message delivery failed...</p>");
  }
 ?>

Iwant to make a contact us script and here is done so far. I am almost sure its about preg match filters but cant find a solution why it doesnt work. Appreciate any help. Here is my code:

               $first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
   $last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
   $email_from = $_POST['email'];
   $comments = $_POST['comments'];
   $emailtrue = '/^([A-Za-z0-9-_]+@[A-Za-z0-9-_]+\.[A-Za-z]{2,4})$/';
   $nametrue = "/^[A-Za-z]+$/D";
    if(!preg_match($nametrue,$first_name)) {
                    echo "The First Name you entered does not appear to be valid.";
        die (); }
               if(!preg_match($nametrue,$last_name))  {
                    echo "The Last Name you entered does not appear to be valid.";
                    die (); }
    if(!preg_match($emailtrue,$email_from)) {
        echo "The Email Address you entered does not appear to be valid.";       
                    die (); }
    if(strlen($comments) < 4)  {         
       echo "The Comments you entered do not appear to be valid. Min. 4 letters." ;
       die (); }
        $to      = xxxxxxxxxx.com';
                $subject = 'User Email';
       $headers = 'From: '.$email_from. "\r\n" .
   'Reply-To: '.$email_from. "\r\n" .
               'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
               mail($to, $subject, $comments, $headers);

Hi Guys

I'm just looking for some advice to make sure i go in the right direction from the off!

Building a new system for a client. They'll receive contact information from a contact form on their website and the details of the contact form are logged in the admin area of the cms. The client wants to be able to respond to these contacts via email without logging into the system and then have the details of the reply logged in the admin area of the cms to know when something has been responded to.

So essentially i need some way of getting that email into the database. The only way i can see this happening is to setup a new mailbox, the client blind copies that mailbox address into all replies, a cron then runs a php script that picks up most recent emails via imap and then reads in the data - thereby registering the fact a response has happened (probably from the subject line reference) and it would then update the status of the contact. I am assuming this is theoretically possible as i've never done anything like that before.

So...

1) Is there a better way of doing this without having the client  login to the site to respond?
2) Does the proposal above sound reasonable?

Any advice would be much appreciated...

I am working on an email extractor script that will extract emails from a site.

I have a working script that will extract them from a single URL, but what I need it to do is to follow the links on the page.

Here is my email script:

<?php
$the_url = isset($_REQUEST['url']) ? htmlspecialchars($_REQUEST['url']) : '';
?>

<form method="post">
  Please enter full URL of the page to parse (including http://):<br />
  <input type="text" name="url" size="65" value="http://<?php echo str_replace('http://', '', $the_url);  ?>"/><br />
  or enter text directly into textarea below:<br />
  <textarea name="text" cols="50" rows="15"></textarea>
  <br />
  <input type="submit" value="Parse Emails" />
</form>

<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['url']) && !empty($_REQUEST['url'])) {
  // fetch data from specified url
  $text = file_get_contents($_REQUEST['url']);
}
elseif (isset($_REQUEST['text']) && !empty($_REQUEST['text'])) {
  // get text from text area
  $text = $_REQUEST['text'];
}

// parse emails
if (!empty($text)) {
  $res = preg_match_all(
    "/[a-z0-9]+([_\\.-][a-z0-9]+)*@([a-z0-9]+([\.-][a-z0-9]+)*)+\\.[a-z]{2,}/i",
    $text,
    $matches
  );

  if ($res) {
    foreach(array_unique($matches[0]) as $email) {
      echo $email . "<br />";
    }
  }
  else {
    echo "No emails found.";
  }
}

?>

It's a bit rough and quirky, but it works for a single URL.
Here is the email extractor in action:

My ideal solution would be to combine this script with my URL extactor/link-extractor script:

Her e is the script in action:
http://www.site-search.org/url-extractor.php

Guys Im having a strange issue with my code

I have a form to request a password to be sent to email incase forgotten

The script seems to run as it should as in taking the info then redirecting to the messages page for confirmation no problem
but its not sending the email

Ive checked and double checked, and even re written the code from scratch and nothing seems to be playing ball in sending the email

Can someone shed some none sleep deprived eyes over it and point out what will no doubt be an obvious error I just cant seem to see 

The Form:
Code: [Select]
<form name="sendpw" method="post" action="sendpw.php">
   <br>
 <table width="100%" border="0" class="tbl">
  <tr>
    <td width="198"><div align="right">Username:</div></td>
    <td width="418"><input name="name" type="text" class="input" size="30"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><div align="right">Email: </div>      </td>
    <td><input name="mail" type="text" class="input" size="30"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td colspan="2"> <div align="center">
      <input name="Submit" type="submit">     
    </div></td>
    </tr>
</table>

</form>

The Script:
Code: [Select]
<?
include ('config.php');

$name=$_POST['name'];
$em=$_POST['mail'];

$query="SELECT pw FROM user WHERE uname='$name' AND email='$em'" or die (mysql_error());

$result= mysql_query($query);

$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);

$pass=$row['pw'];
$to="$em";
$from="From: passwords@MBD.net";
$msg="Username: $name\r\n";
$msg .="Password: $pass\r\n";
$msg .="Please keep this password safe";
$subject="Your Login Password\r\n";

mail($to,$subject,$msg,$from);
header( "Location:messages.php?msg=2" );
exit();
?>
config.php is just my database connection info, which is working fine as it runs all all my pages that access the database.


Thanks

Tom

Trying to use an include() in a script to send an email, not working out.  Basically I have a pretty drastic page I've formatted out and I want it to be shipped out in an email in that format.  I thought it would be simple to get an include in a php code to email but the email works..   and doesn't have anything in it. 

I've tried with and without quotes, any help appreciated.


Code: [Select]

<html>
<body>



<?
    //change this to your email.
    $to = "me@me.com";
    $from = "me@me.com";
    $subject = "stuff";
$message="<?php include("another.php"); ?>"
    $headers  = "From: $from\r\n";
    $headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n";

    //options to send to cc+bcc
    //$headers .= "Cc: [email]maa@p-i-s.cXom[/email]";
    //$headers .= "Bcc: [email]email@maaking.cXom[/email]";
     
    // now lets send the email.
    mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

    echo "Message has been sent....!";
?>


</html>
</body>

I've sent test to server and verified that email working. New with PHP so assuming my code is wrong. Attached Files  contact.html   22.48KB   0 downloads  contact_script.php   3.5KB   3 downloads

Can someone show me a simple mail script that I can run in cli, I can enter a $to = email@email.com and then have it send to my email? just in cli.. Thanks

Hi guys,

I am writing the php script to send the email. I have noticed when I picked up on my email, I can see that it have been covered with mailed-by: myservername.com. I want to hide it, but I can't find a way to get it resolve.


Here's the code:

<?php
session_start();
    define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
    define('DB_USER', 'myusername');
    define('DB_PASSWORD', 'mypass');
    define('DB_DATABASE', 'mydbname');
       
    $errmsg_arr = array();
    $errflag = false;

    $link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
    if(!$link) {
  die('Failed to connect to server: ' . mysql_error());
    }

    $db = mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);
    if(!$db) {

die("Unable to select database");
    }

   function clean($var){

return mysql_real_escape_string(strip_tags($var));
    }
    $name = clean($_GET['name']);
    $email = clean($_GET['email']);
    $type = clean($_GET['type']);
    $comments = clean($_GET['comments']);

if($name == ''){
   $errmsg_arr[] = 'name are missing.';
   $errflag = true;
} elseif($email == ''){
   $errmsg_arr[] = 'email are missing.';
   $errflag = true;
}

    if($errflag) {
  $_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr;
  echo implode('<br />',$errmsg_arr);
   }
   else {
$insert = array();
if(isset($_GET['name'])) {
    $insert[] = 'name = \'' . clean($_GET['name']) .'\'';
}
if(isset($_GET['email'])) {
    $insert[] = 'email = \'' . clean($_GET['email']) . '\'';
}
if(isset($_GET['type'])) {
    $insert[] = 'type = \'' . clean($_GET['type']) . '\'';
}
if(isset($_GET['comments'])) {
    $insert[] = 'comments = \'' . clean($_GET['comments']) . '\'';
}

if (count($insert)>0) {
   $names = implode(',',$insert);

if(isset($email)){
   $name = $_GET['name'];
   $email = $_GET['email'];
   $header = "From: $name <$email>". "\r\n";  
   $to = "myname@myemail.com";
   $subject = $type;
   $message = "$comments & $rate";
   $header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\l\n";
   $add = "<$email>";
   mail($to, $subject, $message, $header, $add);
echo "Thank you for sent us your email";
  }
 }
}
?>



I guess that something got to do with this:

if(isset($email)){
   $header = "From: $name <$email>". "\r\n";  
   $header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\l\n";
   $add = "<$email>";
  }


I have disabled the safe-mode, so do you know how I can hide the mailed-by header using with the code on above??

Any advice would be much appreciate.

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I submit the form, and when the next page displays, it says recieved with the persons name, but it wont post their email, and it wont ever send the message to the email address......... i've been playing with it all day long and just cannot figure it out, about to rip my hair out... any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone have any idea wtf is wrong?

Hello,

I am new to PHP and would like to know what I am doing incorrectly.  I have designed a login form which contains two variables: the username and the password.

So for the username:

<input type="hidden" name="email" id="email" value="example_username">

And for the password:

<input type="password" name="password" id="password" size="15">

I then created a php script which I want to pass the variables "email" and "password" to the e-mail address:
 
 
<?php



{

   $message = "$email";

   $message2 = "$password";

   mail ("email@myserver.com", "Hello", $message, $message2);



}

?>


This should happen through the command:

<action="http://www.myserver.com/myscript.php" method="post">

All I get is a blank email with the subject "Hello".  Why are the email and password variables not being passed to my email by the php script?

Thanks.
