PHP - Php Mail Problem
I have a basic mail script (with the standard mail function: mal() ) that I use for a confirmation email (in a users sign up form). The form and the mail is almost always successfully submitted. Although every once in a while, I get the following error :
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() BTW, the users input is succesfully inserted into the database; but he never recieves the confirmation mail.... Similar TutorialsHello to all out there! this is my first post,so my question may sound a bit simple. :] I am studying PHP and MySQL and I tried to make a mailing form based on a mysql database. My problem occured when I tried to use the PEAR mail object. Here is my code: // THE INCLUDED FILES require_once ("attach_file.php" ); require_once ("Mail.php" ); require_once ("Mail\mime.php" ); //THE VARIABLES TAKEN FROM THE HTML FORM OR JUST CREATED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE EMAIL $my_email = "something@gmail.com"; $email_subject = mysql_real_escape_string(trim( $_POST['email_subject']),$server_connect ); $email_body = mysql_real_escape_string(trim( $_POST['email_body'] ),$server_connect ); $attached_file = $destination ; // the $destination variable comes from the copy() function in attach_file.php $username = "the_username@gmail.com"; $password = "the_password"; $host = "smtp.gmail.com"; $attach = new Mail_mime(); $attach -> addAttachment($attached_file); $email_body = $attach->get(); $extraheaders = array('from'=>$my_email,'to'=>$email_etaireias,'subject'=>$email_subject,'Bcc'=>$email_etaireias); $headers = $attach -> $headers($extraheaders); // HERE GIVES ME AN ERROR!!! -->Fatal error: Method name must be a string $smtp_info = array('host'=>$host,'auth'=>TRUE,'username'=>$username,'password'=>$password); $smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',$smtp_info); //loop through every single line of the database until there are no more lines with data //and store each line in 3 different variables that i can use while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { $onoma_etaireias = $row['onoma_etaireias']; $email_etaireias = $row['email_etaireias']; $website_etaireias = $row['website_etaireias']; } //construct the mail function . The @ is supressing the errors created .remove it and they will be shown. $mail = @$smtp->send($email_etaireias,$headers,$email_body); As i searched here and there for a solution, i found that it has something to do with the way the mail-mime object creates the body of the email . I also tried to find a solution from the PEAR documentation. do i create the headers someway wrong????? 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' . "\r\n"; $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' .

Dear all, I'm having this problem with PHP Mail From Name, it took me entire day, and still haven't figure out the issue...that is... In "From: ", if I have it in simple email format, such as "From: name@server.com" it works...but when I have it with a From Name, eg. "From: Name <name@server.com>", then it just wouldn't send... I heard that some of the servers just won't parse "Name <name@server.com>", if it is the case...would there be any work around to get that From Name appeared?

It's the same function as before though it gives this error: "Warning: mail(): Failed to connect to mailserver at "localhost" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:\vufind\web\services\MyResearch\Edit.php on line 182" But the php.ini file hasn't been changed, and it doesn't give error the the previous code above (+ I receive the email) So I add to the file below: Code: [Select] <?php ini_set("SMTP","mySMTPserver."); ini_set("smtp_port","25"); ?> and now i get this msg... "Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 503 5.5.2 Need Rcpt command."

I have a messaging system that I'm trying to send a notification by email to a specific person when a new message is entered. Everything is working fine except how the message is displayed in the email. Here's the problem: When the message reads: "This is a test. This should be two lines down. This is on the next line!" this is what is displayed in the email: "This is a test.\r\n\r\nThis should be two lines down.\r\nThis is on the next line!" How I'm displaying the message is by inserting it into a database first. Then I do a query to pull it back from the database on another page using the variable $message. I have tried using just $message and using nl2br("$message") and they both display as shown above. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the message to display properly in the email? Here's the code that I'm using to send it in if it will help: Code: [Select] <?php $message2 = nl2br("$message"); $sendto2 = "$email"; $emailsubject2 = "New Message"; $emailmessage2 = "<html> <body> <table width=\"500\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\"> <tr> <td> $prefix $lname, <p> This message is to notify you that a new message has been sent.

When I open this in the browser, it says "Query is empty". Anyone want to help a newb out and show me what I'm doing wrong? I'd like for it to pull the data out of these fields and send it via e-mail. What would be even better is if I could get it to do this the day before the `reminder_date`. I can set it up so cron runs the script, I just need to get the script to work first. Thanks in advance for your help. It works like a charm but the only problem I get when the page loads it SENDS an email without info of course because it sends it without someone pushing the submit button. Hereis my HTM Land PHP code Code: [Select] <form method="post" action="viewpage.php?page_id=5"> Email: <input name="email" type="text"><br> Message:<br> <textarea name="message" rows="15" cols="40"></textarea><br> <input type="submit"> </form> (note the action is in the page itself because thats where the php code is, now for the PHP code:) Code: [Select] <?php $to = "hidden for privacy"; $subject = "LoL Recruitment"; $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ; $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ; $headers = "From: $email"; $sent = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers) ; if($sent) {print "Your mail was sent successfully"; } else {print "We encountered an error sending your mail"; } ?> For some reason I go to the page and it auto sends an email without waiting for me to "submit" the form... Is there any suggestions?? EDIT: I noticed its automatically doing the PHP script as soon as the page opens, because the HTML and PHP script is in the same "page" and not in different files, I understand this and I want it like this I dont want to have to create another file just for it to stop this bug. Theres got to be a way to pause the PHP script and activate it when the "Submit" button is pressed. I have been having some issues with the above functions and while the mail was sent , it was looking kinda weird Im facing 2 problems: 1st: implode() , or print_r() didnt worked for me , i guess i should be using a foreach statement but i never stadied seriously the arrays. 2nd: Always a JSON parse error, or invalid JSON error comes out when the email() code exitsts... Here is the code below Code: [Select] $name = trim(stripslashes(strip_tags($_POST['name']))); $email = trim(stripslashes(strip_tags($_POST['email']))); $url = trim(stripslashes(strip_tags($_POST['url']))); $title = trim(stripslashes(strip_tags($_POST['title']))); $anchortext = trim(stripslashes(strip_tags($_POST['anchortext']))); $description = trim(stripslashes(strip_tags($_POST['description']))); $dropdown = $_POST['dropdown']; $receiver = "example@gmail.com" ; $email_body = array($name,$email,$url,$title,$anchortext,$description,$dropdown); if (!empty($name) & !empty($email) && !empty($url) && !empty($title) && !empty($anchortext) && !empty($description) && !empty($dropdown) ){ // i guess all juice goes here ;) $send = mail($receiver, 'Link Exchange Request', "$email_body", "From: {$email}"); if ($send) { echo 'true'; } }I would like the mail to be presented like Name : blabla Email : blabla@blabla.com Url : blablablabla and so on .. Suggestions? Hello, i need to send emails to users according to the category they have selected everything works fine except for the mail function which tells me that i cannot parse an array variable. the error code is: Warning: mail() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in C:\wamp\www\newsletter.php on line 25 can any1 tell me how i can send the mail so that it accepts that variable? my code is: Code: [Select] <?php $db_hostname="localhost"; $db_username="root"; $db_password=""; $db = mysql_connect($db_hostname,$db_username,$db_password); if (!$db) { die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("newsletter", $db); if (isset($_POST['categories'])) { //make the checkmarks with name categories[] foreach ($_POST['categories'] as $cat) { $email_query = mysql_query("SELECT email FROM members WHERE `category` = '" . $cat . "'"); if (mysql_num_rows($email_query)) { while ($email = mysql_fetch_array($email_query)) { ini_set('SMTP','smtp.gmail.com'); if (mail($email, 'Subject','Message Goes Here', "From: <noreply@domain.com>")) { echo "Message Sent"; } else { echo "Message Not Sent"; } }//end while }// end if } } ?> Hi, I am having a problem with my Website mail. Basically the mail was working fine yesterday but last night I edited the PHP script slightly because for some reason the page that it was directed to had gone missing and was turning up an 404 error, which was just a newsuince as the email was still sent. So I just edited it so that it echo'ed a message saying thanks. but is seems today the mail is not getting to its destination. The PHP returns no errors and returns the success message fine but after saying its been sent it never appears. I have tried different email addresses on different servers and that was no use and I have also changed the code back to how it was yesterday. and it still doesn't work. I have also put the page up on one of my other sites which I know everything is set up properly and it works fine, making me think that it is a mail setup issue. but as I did not set up the mail at all and quite frankly don't really understand it, I don't know how it is meant to be set up as I just use google apps for sites that I set up. So yeah I am trying to work out what could have gone wrong since yesterday but I don't really understand it, below is the code as it as now and as it was yesterday: Code: [Select] <?php $EmailFrom = "johnshale@hotmail.co.uk"; $EmailTo = "matthale.live@gmail.com"; $Subject = "Website enquiry"; $Name = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Name'])); $Tel = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Tel'])); $Email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Email'])); $Message = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Message'])); // validation $validationOK=true; if (!$validationOK) { print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=error.htm\">"; exit; } // prepare email body text $Body = ""; $Body .= "Name: "; $Body .= $Name; $Body .= "\n"; $Body .= "Tel: "; $Body .= $Tel; $Body .= "\n"; $Body .= "Email: "; $Body .= $Email; $Body .= "\n"; $Body .= "Message: "; $Body .= $Message; $Body .= "\n"; // send email $success = mail($EmailTo, $Subject, $Body, "From: <$EmailFrom>"); // redirect to success page if ($success){ print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=contactthanks.php\">"; } else{ print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=error.htm\">"; } ?> and the page is at www.sullyco.co.uk/contactengine.php as you can see the page is redirecting to a page that does not exist(contactthanks.php) indicating that the message was sent successfully. it is also the part I edited as a quick fix last night I just got it to echo a success message. Thanks for any help on this, I have been trying to work it out all morning, Matt Hi Friends, I did one contact.php and process.php(also i attached txt file).
