Im having problems with my board mailer and my host. My host has this info on their site Because of the large amount of spam email that occurs every day, our email servers need to restrict how email gets sent. Normally in PHP, you would use the mail function to send out an email. Below is an example of how the mail function works: $to = '[email protected]'; $subject = 'the subject'; $message = 'hello'; $headers = 'From: [email protected]';
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); This will no longer work. Replace the above code with the PHP Class called PHPMailer which you can download from here. Here is an example of PHPMailer that would replace the above mail code: require("class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // send via SMTP $mail->Host = "mail.yourdomain.com"; // Outgoing Mail (SMTP) server $mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication $mail->Username = "[email protected]"; // SMTP username $mail->Password = "yourpassword"; // SMTP password
$mail->From = "[email protected]"; $mail->FromName = "Your Name"; $mail->AddAddress("[email protected]");
$mail->IsHTML(false); // send as plain text
$mail->Subject = "the subject"; $mail->Body = "hello";
if(!$mail->Send()) { echo "Message was not sent "; echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo; exit; }
echo "Message has been sent"; so I am looking over dosendmail.php and I understand in a way how it functions but I am afraid integrating it may be beyond me at the moment. Would anyone be willing to help with this? dosendemail.txt link removed per Allen
