I am trying to send mail to multiple recipient without them seeing each others email address
this is what I have done so far
//my variable $mailto got all the emails from the database
$mailto = preg_replace('#\s+#',',',trim($mailto));
$headers = 'FROM: COMPANY INC <support#admin.com>\r\n';
$headers .= 'BBC'.$mailto."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-Type:text/html; charset=ISO- 8859-1\r\n';
mail($mailto, "MY TITle", $mailbody, $headers);
You are setting the wrong header. There is no BBC, and you're missing a colon.
try
$headers .= 'BCC: '.$ml."\r\n";

i am having a issue with sending emails with cronjobs.
actually i need to send email to all the recently joined users
and so the emails are something like $to='acx1#xyz.com,acx2#xyz.com,acx3#xyz.com';
here i need to send the mail to all the receipts but not to let them know that i have sent this mail to all these persons in receipt basically BCC them
but the problem is that if i put the $to into BCC then what should i put in to function of mail
if to is empty then it may be spamed
i want to send this mail to all the receipts but when they check the headers they should see their email only
and one more issue please let me know if i am using correct headers ?
because sometimes my email is spammed by gmail
$from='tests.com';
$to='contact#test.com';
$message="<body> some html data with inline css </body>"
$subject="Hii this is test";
$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'."\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $from <contact#test.com>" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: contact#test.com" . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'BCC: acx1#xyz.com,acx2#xyz.com,acx3#xyz.com' . "\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
I have a php form that I made and when someone fills out the form it works fine with all other email accounts (yahoo, hotmail, #mydomain.com, etc) but when it comes to sending the email to a gmail user, the email never comes through, not even in the spam box.
$from = $email;
//Testing Below
//$headers = 'From:noreply#mydomainname.com' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $from \n";
$headers .= " MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n ";
$headers .= " Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n ";
//Mail The Message
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
The code above will not send to gmail but will work for all other email accounts. This one (below) will work for gmail but of course then I don't have the option of html in the email.
$headers = 'From:noreply#mydomainname.com' . "\r\n";
//$headers .= "From: $from \n";
//$headers .= " MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n ";
//$headers .= " Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n ";
//Mail The Message
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
So basically when I add the MIME and Content type to the headers variable it wont send to a gmail account.
Thanks in advance!
I have replied a question not too long ago related to this. It might have to do with the gmail's email filtering, maybe you are getting too high spam score so it's not even getting into the spam folder, this could be caused by not having correct dns configuration / keys and trying to use html at the same time.
I leave a link to the other answer (It's quite long, and not as easy as you would imagine xD):
PHP and Gmail spam filter
Hope it helps you.
You are not using a proper concatenation operator:
Change your From line to:
$headers .= "From: ".$from;
My website runs the following code: (I BCC myself so that I have a copy of all the emails that my website sends out)
//prepare email headers
$headers = "From: " . "info#mysite.com" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: ". "info#mysite.com" . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: sent#mysite.com' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
$message = getMsg( ... );
mail( $buyer_email, 'mysite.com - Verify your information.', $message, $headers );
$message = getMsg( ... );
mail( $seller_email, 'mysite.com - Verify your information.', $message, $headers );
The emails get sent out perfectly fine. The problem is with the second email that gets BCC'ed to me. The recipient's email address is blank so I can't see who the email was sent to. The first email that's BCC'ed to me is fine, all the info shows up. In other words, I can see $buyer_email, but I can't see $seller_email. Any ideas?
You can debug it like this
echo "Seller Email: $seller_email";
mail( $seller_email, 'mysite.com - Verify your information.', $message, $headers )
The page will print the seller email and you can see what it actually is.
Addition
If you can not use the above code because you have to test it a user (which is normal btw), use the following technique.
Since you are getting the first email, send $seller_email as part of test code in that email and see what value it has.
$message = getMsg( ... );
mail( $buyer_email, "mysite.com - Test Seller Email: $seller_email .", $message, $headers );
You will find out the seller email value in the email you get.
Does sending additional headers help? (see mail()) That way you don't have to use 2 mail functions.
Like this:
$headers .= 'Bcc: birthdaycheck#example.com' . "\r\n";
I'm very sorry, but I made a huge mistake. Long story, but basically I was confusing code on one page with very similar code on a different page. I was testing the validity of $seller_email on the wrong page. On the page in question, it was in fact NOT being set. Once again, sorry. I should have posted the entire code.

I am using the following script to send mail
$to = 'name#test.com' . ', ';
$to .= 'name2#test.com';
$subject = 'Green apple';
$message = 'Enquiry posted by test ';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Green Apple <info#greenappleme.com>' . "\r\n";
if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
{
echo "mail send successfully";
}
else
echo "mail can't send";
When I use this script to some servers, the mail is going to spam. But in some servers, it is going to the Inbox as desired.
How can I prevent email going to spam?
To prevent an email going into spam, don't send with mail from PHP. Send it with SMTP from your server, you can use PHP to connect to SMTP and submit the message. You will then need to set the SPF records on your server, and reverse DNS records with whoever your IP address comes from. If you do these three things then you'll be on the whitelist and all your emails will go into the inbox everywhere, assuming you don't abuse the privilege and get put on a blacklist.
So: send using SMTP, research SPF records and reverse DNS.
You won't be able to do this unless you have a dedicated server with dedicated IP for the domain from which you are sending the email from.
Be sure to set the RETURN PATH as the optional 5th parameter to the mail() function.
if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, '-finfo#greenappleme.com'))
TO send ur majority mail in inbox set below headers and dont use test like keywords in your subject line
$headers = "From: My site<noreply#example.com>\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: info#example.com\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: info#example.com\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: Drupal\n";
$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
i want know
how i can send one mail to 200 user
and i want when the email sendt
it appeare send to:user#mail.com
from:my mail
because i think i see many email like that
to:email1#exaple.com;email2#exaple.com;emial3#exaple.com;
ithink this from bbc
i mean i want every user see sent to this email only
You can use the native mail() function, separate the addresses with a comma, and put them all in the blind carbon copy list with additional headers.
$to = "jon#abc.com,sal#example.com";
$subject = "Mini-mass Emailer";
$message = "Hello World";
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Your Name <me#mydomain.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: {$to}' . "\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
Or you could iterate over the collection of email addresses and send each message individually:
$emails = array("foo#bar.com","fizz#buzz.com");
foreach ($emails as $email) {
$to = $email;
$subject = "My Subject";
$message = "Hello World";
mail($to, $subject, $message);
}
Send each mail separately to each user. You can write a helper utility function to do this iteratively.
if use mail function
use bcc in header
like this :
$headers .= 'Bcc: 1#example.com,2#example.com.............' . "\r\n";
u can use a class like phpmailer
and use AddBCC() function
