[PHP] Problems with mail
Hi,
I have this very straight forward code to send an e-mail:
$subject_users_subscription_confirmation = Subscription confirmation;
$message_users_subscription_confirmation = 'Please, click this link to
confirm your subscritpion:
http://www.telbit.pt/subscribe-confirm.php?email=' . $email . 'conf=' .
$barfles;
mail($email, $subject_users_subscription_confirmation,
$message_users_subscription_confirmation);
The three variables are ok, as i debuged them with prints, but no mail
is sent.
If i do a test with
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'Hello', 'Hello');
then the mail is sent ok!
I'm driving nuts here.
Can someone give me a hand on this, please ?
Warm Regards
--

So mail() works, which means you're doing something wrong or your host
is blocking the email or spam filters are catching it.
If you're on a test machine, watch the mail logs and see if that gives
you any clues about what's going on.

[PHP] Problems with mail() w/Win2k
Hey guys I recently join this list and this is my first real post to it so if I f**k something up please do beat me to death. :) I have a simple mailer script that was mailing POSTed form information to a client, this script was running on a Debian box w/Apache. This server is having hardware issues so I moved the sites to a win2k machine. The same script bombs out when it trys to use the mail() function. The error message I receive is not so enlightening: Warning: Server Error in D:\Inetpub\belcoind.com\mailFunc.php on line 24 I changed the line in the php.ini to read: SMTP = localhost; the server has its own smtp service running on it I also tried: SMTP = mail.mydomain.com; This genereated the same problem. I have been using PHP with Apache forever but I rarely use it on Windows so any insight into this problem would be great.

Hello. I wrote a routine that queries a table (Mysql) to pull about 300 records and record their emails. I iterate over this recorset invoking the mail() function to send an email for each record in this recordset. The problem is that on my providers server, there is a big delay before the script end execution. When it takes too long I hit the stop button on the browser, but when I do this the users receive the same email twice. Why is this happening? -- Ivan R.

The problems that I'm having with the mail function stem from the extra arguments that I'm trying to pass it. What I'm trying to do is write a script to mail links to interesting stories to other people. In doing this, I want to make the mail appear that it came from the e-mail address of the person who wanted to send the link.

I decided to try using the mail() function with just the first three arguments (i.e. the destination address, the subject, and the message body), and it kind of worked, meaning that it sent me a message with the correct subject filled out, and the correct message body, but it was still coming from the same address, the name of the web server user.

Re: [PHP] Problems with mail() function
I had smilar problems before and found out that I missed some \ns. It seems that you missed a \n at the end of headers. That might be a reason. Another solution might be replacing \ns with \r\n. I heard in newsgroups and in some documentations that this might be problem in some systems. I recommend to read the source of message after you get it.

Subject: [PHP] Problems sending mail to aol with the mail() function
Hello,
I am working on a PHP script for an e-commerce site that mails out calling
card pin numbers after somebody purchases them online. Turing testing I not
noticed that aol users were not receiving the messages. AOL seems to be
filtering them out without sending a bounce or anything. We tried it with
multiple aol users, and nothing I tried when using the mail function got
through, but messages sent from the server with pine and the php mail
package SquirrelMail do get through. The messages are received on every
other mail system I have tried.
I know this is more of a mail question, but I was hoping somebody here and
encountered this before and knew of a workaround. I noticed that
SquirrelMail doesn't use the mail function, they chose to write their own
SMPT package. I wonder why?
Anyway, my test scripts look like this:
?php
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Test 1",
"This is a test",
"From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nReply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nX-Mailer: My
test mail program\nX-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nContent-Type: text/plain;
charset=\"us-ascii\"");
echo "Mail sent!";
?
I tried playing around with different headers and nothing made any
difference. I sent them to myself and they sure look like valid email
messages to me. Does anybody else have this problem? What did you do about
it?
Thanks,
Steve

Isn't this redundant? Your test is really if send = 1 do something,
otherwise do something else.

error_reporting(0);
$Address = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$Subject = "Feedback From NullTechnology.com";
$Message = str_replace("\n","br",$Message);

This is wrong The additional stuff needs to go in the fourth
parameter if you want it to show up in the From field,; as you have it,
it will be tacked on the end of the message body.
$from = "From: $Return";
$Mail = mail($Address, $Subject, $Message, $Return);
I wonder if you need to do some text wrapping? Although Outlook generally
doesn't seem to care about such things, maybe something in the mail chain
might.
if($Mail == 1)
and I think this will always be true once PHP has offloaded the mail to
the MTA, even if the MTA drops it on the floor.
SNIP more code
Failing that, you might need to look carefully at the actual content of
the message - not getting any unexpected characters or somesusch???
