Re: [PHP] Send mail using external server
From: Maria Garcia Suarez [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The problem is that blind copies
don't reach destination, mails in the To: field arrive
well, mails in the BCC: desappear and never reach the
mailbox (nor get back :-?
[...]
talk2server(MAIL FROM: .$from.\n);
if (listen2server() == 250)
talk2server(RCPT TO: .$to.\n);
if (listen2server() == 250)
talk2server(DATA\n);
if (listen2server() == 354)
{
$content = Subject: $subject\r\n;
$content .= From: $from\r\n;
$content .= To: $to\r\n;
if ($cc!=) {
$content .= Cc: $cc\r\n;
}
if ($bcc!=) {
$content .= Bcc: $bcc\r\n;
}
the problem is that the script should send a RCPT TO for every recipient,
and it only send it for $to
so this script only works with the $to field, neither the $cc nor $bcc will
work...
moreover, the $content .= Bcc: $bcc\r\n; line should not go!!!
if not you are putting the info about the BCC in the mail headers and
everyone will be able to see it..
regards,
Juan

Re: [PHP] Send mail using external server
From: Maria Garcia Suarez [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hola Juan! Hola! :) (Hi!) Thanks for your help Juan :-) de nada!!! (you are welcome) What should I change in the script in order to make it work? after the RCPT TO for the $to variable, you should check if $cc is defined, if it is, then do the same for that variable, and then the same for $bcc also remember to remove the line I told before that adds the Bcc in the mail headers... but, IMHO, that script isn't well coded as you have already seen, and I also don't like the way it's programmed, it's very rudimentary... I would use phpmailer as someone told you before instead.. Besos!!! (Kisses!) Juan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You must send the rctp to's bfore you start sending the data. To be
a more stable smtp client there should be more sanity checking before
blindy doing this:
if ($cc != ) {
$CC = split(',', $cc);
foreach ($CC as $ccemal) {
talk2server(RCPT TO: $ccemail\n);
}
}
Then repeat for BCC's
if (listen2server() == 250)
talk2server(DATA\n);
if (listen2server() == 354)
{
$content = Subject: $subject\r\n;
$content .= From: $from\r\n;
$content .= To: $to\r\n;
if ($cc!=) {
$content .= Cc: $cc\r\n;
}
if ($bcc!=) {
$content .= Bcc: $bcc\r\n;
}
Be sure to remove the bcc header, it wont be very blind if the
recipients can see who was blind carbon copied.

good!! you also included the code for her :)

I'm really surprised at this script...
I can't believe someone posted that script for being downloaded while it has
several things that are completely wrong!!!
Specially the including the BCC in the header's in a way that anyone can see
it!!!
obviously this programmer did not have many clues on how SMTP works, and
didn't waste many of his time investigating it...
it really surprises me..

With the proposed changes does it become something
usable? I wouldn't like to start using a huge
(somehow, compared to this little script) script just
to send a very simple mail...
Thanks!
