i'm using the following code to send e-mails from php.
$to = 'myemail@domain.com';
$subject = 'Test email with attachment';
$random_hash = md5(date('r', time()));
$headers = "From: webmaster@example.com
Reply-To: webmaster@example.com";
$headers .= "
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"PHP-mixed-".$random_hash."\"";
if(isset($_FILES['curriculum_vitae']['name']) && $_FILES['curriculum_vitae']['name'] != ''){ $attachment = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($_FILES['curriculum_vitae']['tmp_name']))); }
ob_start();
?>
--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>"
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Hello World!!!
This is simple text email message.
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
<h2>Hello World!</h2>
<p>This is something with <b>HTML</b> formatting.</p>
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>--
<?php if(isset($_FILES['curriculum_vitae']['name']) && $_FILES['curriculum_vitae']['name'] != ''){ ?>--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
Content-Type: application/zip; name="<?php echo $_FILES['curriculum_vitae']['name']; ?>"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment
<?php echo $attachment; ?>
--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>--
<?php } ?>
<?php
$message = ob_get_clean();
$mail_sent = @mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers );
echo $mail_sent ? "Mail sent" : "Mail failed";
However, when i receive the email on the webmail i have problems with the character codification. Characters like "à" or "ç" appears in strange forms.
Is this a problem of the codification i have defined in the code above?
Thanks!
Change headers to UTF8
in the text/plain part
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
and in the text/html part
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Use this use this code to send mail using php script
<?php
$to = "someone@example.com";
$subject = "Test mail";
$message = "Hello! This is a simple email message.";
$from = "someonelse@example.com";
$headers = "From:" . $from;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "Mail Sent.";
?>
No need to set an additional information on script.i dont know why you are settling sevral headers and content-type encoding.
