Hi Steve - are you using the regular 'mail' transport or the SMTP
transport when using Zend_Mail?
Hi all,
I've been writing some unit tests and have had some trouble with mail.
I send mail using my application and then check these emails in my
unit
tests. All of this is handled by a local mail server (hMailServer).
If I use CURL to request pages from my local server that send mail,
the SMTP
commands of the page all happen before the POP commands of my unit
tests, so
the mail is sent, then checked.
If I load my bootstrap in my unit test the SMTP and POP commands are
mixed
up, so that not all SMTP commands are finished before POP commands
are sent.
This means the account can be checked before the mail has been sent,
even
though in the code the sending commands are before the checking
commands.
This happens whether I use PHP's mail() or Zend_Mail.
It appears as though the local server waits for the SMTP commands to
finish
before it returns a result to CURL, whereas directly accessing my
bootstrap
allows the SMTP commands to run in the background almost as a separate
thread.
Any ideas on why this is happening? How can I force the SMTP
commands to
finish before code execution continues?
Cheers,
Steven
