Hi All,

Need your help with the situation I am stuck in.

I have created a HTML Form and using PHP file saving that data into database. But now I want to send out an generic email to each visitor who fill the form.

Attaching the code of html form and php database. It would be highly appreaciated if you can help me in updating the php file with which I can send an auto email.

 

HTML Form -

                                        <div class="contact-form">


                                            <form id="contact-form" class="validate-form" method="post"

Can somebody tell me how to make this exact code send mail? I tested it on my website and it doesn't send any emails. The first code is the file contact_config.php

<?php
$mailto = "youremail@email.com";
$charset = "windows-1251";

."<br>E-mail: ".$_POST['posEmail']
."<br>Country: ".$_POST['posCountry']
."<br>Phone: ".$_POST['posRegard']
."<br>Comments: ".$_POST['posText'];
 
$statusError = "";
$statusSuccess = "";

$errors_name = 'Please enter the Name';

Now for some reason the two of these files are supposed to send me emails when customers click the submit email button on my form but, I don't get any emails. I tested it myself and no emails. Help please!

I'm trying to send email with php for the first time. Trying to make it so that after a user registers he/she receives an email after submitting. I'm trying to send it from 1 comp with an email of goldie@telkomsa.net to another with an email of jgoldie@telkomsa.net (I just really want to test if it's sending email another before I get technical with the email)

Should this code work, here is part of my code with the email section in it:
Code: [Select]
<?php
// query
$sql = "INSERT INTO student (sno, sname, init, fname,
title, msname, dob, sex, lang, idno,
telh, telw, cel, fax, email, address, 
contact_flag
)



VALUES  ('', '$sname', '$init', '$fname', 
'$title', '$msname', '$dob', '$sex','$lang',
'$idno', '$telh', '$telw', '$$cell', '$fax',
'$email', '$address', '$contact')";




 mysql_query($sql) or die('Error:' . mysql_error());
  
 $sno_id = mysql_insert_id();
  


// get the cid
$cname = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['cname']); 
$getCID = "SELECT cid FROM course WHERE cname='$cname'";
$result = mysql_query($getCID);

if($result)
{
    $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
    $course_id = $row['cid'];

     // add the student to the course_student table
     $addCID = 'INSERT INTO course_student (cid, sno) VALUES(' . $row['cid'] . ', ' . $sno_id . ')';
     mysql_query($addCID) or die('Error:' . mysql_error());

// send email
$Name = "Da Duder"; //senders name
$email = "goldie@telkomsa.net"; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = "jgoldie@telkomsa.net"; //recipient
$mail_body = "The text for the mail..."; //mail body
$subject = "Subject for reviever"; //subject
$header = "From: ". $Name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields

ini_set('sendmail_from', 'goldie@telkomsa.net'); //Suggested by "Some Guy"

if (mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header)){ 
echo "mail has been sent"; //mail command 
}



}



  
 header( "refresh:5;student_man.php" );
echo 'Registration <b> successful </b> You\'ll be redirected in about 5 secs. If not, click <a href="student_man.php">here</a>.';


}
}

Email is under the "email section" comment based of what I found on google. I'm not getting any errors so I want to know if the email isn't going through because of my code or my smtp setting etc.

I understand you need to use the mail() command but this just wont work for me, my webserver is with godaddy, and they sent me an email saying that i need to use a relay server to send my mail, how do i set this up or anything?

Hello,

I have been using the mail() command for a while now, but for some reason It has just stopped functioning all together.  I have added an OR DIE rule to the end of it and had no response.  To all intents and purposes that mail is being sent - there are no errors whatsoever - just the mail is not getting delivered.  I cannot think of anything I've done or changed that would stop it from being delivered, I haven't even been near the function that does it in a while.  Here is the code:

Code: [Select]

function sendMail($to,$ref) {
        $subject = 'Booking Confirmation';
$file = "receipts/$ref.htm";
$fh=fopen($file, "r");
$message = fread($fh, filesize($file));
fclose($fh);
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Company <noreply@company.co.uk>' . "\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}

I have taken out the public names involved, but otherwise thats the code.  It has worked absolutely fine in the past, and even If I strip out all of the filehandling part of it, and just use a simple $from - $to - $message, it still seems not actually send the mail.  It wouldnt be so bad If I at least had an error to go on, but I dont I am just simply not getting the mail.

Please help!

Hi People,   I'm using a php to send an mail using a server via ssl. My program:   <?php

Hello,
I have those code:

$message = "
Hello $inforow2['company']<br />
This is a notice about a pending invoice at $inforow3['company'].<br />
If you would like to see the invoice, you can see it <a href='http://$inforow3['url]'/view-invoice?id=$id.php'>here</a><br />
This is an automatic message. Replies will not be monitored.<br />
Yours faithfully<br />$inforow3['company']";

mail($inforow2['email'],"Invoice overdue #1",$message,$inforow3['sentfrom']);


I'm not sure if I can send this, and it will get the values from my mysql and put it in the email or it would send the text directly, and if it ill take the html..
Can any one tell me if above code would be correct?

this worked and stopped, no error no idea why
is this a conflict?
Code: [Select]
echo("<meta http-equiv = refresh content=0;url=".$url_success.">");
     mail($to_supplier, $subject_supplier, $message_supplier, $headers_supplier);
 $ok = @mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);

Hello,
I am trying to create a registration module where an email would be sent to the user after registration.
I am using xampp and have tried php mailer
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmailer/files/phpmailer%20for%20php4/0.90/
but couldn't get it to work...
I've been told that it is possible to send an email from localhost through smtp...
I need to know how to accomplish that. Am a beginner.
suggestions and help would be appreciated

Hi guys, I'm sending mail from php running on a cheap webhost with the following:

Code: [Select]
$to = 'name@domain.com.au';
$header = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$header .= "From: Name <noreply@domain.info>" . "\r\n";
$subject = "Interest registered";
$message = "<!DOCTYPE HTML.. a bunch of html";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $header);
As you can see I've set "from" in the headers. When I receive the email however, it says from: myusername@my.cheaphost.com on behalf of Name [noreply@domain.info]

I need to get rid of the on behalf bit as it looks completely unprofessional. I just want it to say from: Name [noreply@domain.info]

Obviously this is probably something to do with the setup of the server, some of which I have no control over. I have access to another mail server which I can use to send email, so I put this at the start of my code:

Code: [Select]
ini_set('SMTP', 'mail.myotherserver.com.au');
echo ini_get('SMTP');
Which returns mail.myotherserver.com.au however, when I use the mail function, it still comes from myusername@my.cheaphost.com on behalf of Name [noreply@domain.info]

Is there something I'm missing, is the mail function not tied to the SMTP value?

Thanks
