I have been making a website for a client and he has requested two things. The first is to send an email when a job is assigned to a users accounts and the second is to enable a user to recover a lost password for a the user via an automated email. The website has been coded using HTML5 CSS PHP and SQL for the database back end.
I am unsure of how to set up this function to send this automated email
any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank You

Is it possible to develop a system in codeigniter that is capable of receiving reply of emails as well.
Actually I want to develop email receiving feature in codeigniter .
Please guide with complete detail considering me at beiginner level.

This involves developing a mail client application. Maybe you will search the web where you will find some open source application that you then should integrate with codeigniter.
Her is a video which can help you to get started:

This might be pretty far out there, but I thought I'd ask. I have developed a program in Laravel 4 where it is like forum where it emails the people. I was asked if there was a way to make it where the users can reply to the email and make it appear in the forum.
I know other sites have done that like Basecamp, but I didn't have to program it. Is there anyway to achieve this in Laravel?
Thanks!
Yes, it's possible, but you'll need more than just Laravel. You can pipe inbound emails to Laravel or you can use a third-party service like Mandrill's inbound email handling to accept and turn them into HTTP requests to your server.

I'm developing a web app in php using codeignitor. I want to implement "reply to this email with approved in email body to update the app." feature.
Nowadays wen web apps send email for approvals, we can directly reply to email so the app will get updated once you send the reply. How does this feature implemented? I searched the web couldn't get any clues.
You can create a script polling the inbox of a specific email address and approving emails it got answer from. You would then need to set up cron jobs to run the script periodically.

With PHP, I want to send a link into my clients' email so they can have access to a page on my website. This page will not be accessed by other users. So I plan to include some session information in the mail function.
I don't know how to go about it. Please kindly assist.
You can't send session info through to the email, but I would recommend creating a special token that is stored in your database. You can generate the link in the email to include that special token, then validate against it to ensure they are who they say they are.

I'm making a CMS for one of my friends. She is a writer with a looots of ideas and notes. I just realized that she needs a note taking webapp inside that CMS that allows her to make notes by simply writing an e-mail to a specific e-mail address. Like Evernote: the subject would be the 'title' of the note and the body would be the content.
But I cannot figure it out how to do that – in the past few days I was thinking only and nothing came out. I need a 'trigger' which runs a PHP script but how? Do you guys have some ideas?
I would really appreciate that.
Thanks a lot.
You would need to create an email address that "pipes" to an application, such as PHP.
If you are on a WHM server, cPanel accounts can easily do this. See: http://docs.whmcs.com/Email_Piping
