$phpMailer = New PHPMailer();
$phpMailer->isSMTP();
$phpMailer->SMTPKeepAlive = true;
for ( ... ) {
// Send your emails right away
[ ... ]
}
$phpMailer->SmtpClose();
HI, I have an example code for KeepAlive SMTP here, but my problem is I send email with difference contents to my users. So each user have 1 content.
Can I do it like this:
for ( ... ) {
$phpMailer->addAddress($user['email'], $user['name']);
$phpMailer->Subject = $user['subject'];
$phpMailer->Body = $user['body'];
$phpMailer->Send()
}
Will the ->addAddress increase my recipients every time on the loop? Or will it clean the old recipient after ->send() comitted ?
Call clearAddresses() Before addAddress function . It is cleared before recipients.
$phpmailer->ClearAddresses();
$phpMailer->addAddress($user['email'], $user['name']);

the script looks quite huge, but at the end its simple logic:
get the last time emails were sent (for example $lastTimeSent)
get the data of the opened queued campaign (for example $dataCampaign)
get SMTP data to be used for sending emails (for example $SMTP)
checks if current timestamp time() is bigger then $lastTimeSent+allowed_period (because Im allowed to send 200 emails every 20mins)
loop the phpmailer, send emails separately (each time add one email to send)
and the problem is, that if I run the script inside nonallowed time period (so im not following rule of 200 emails in 20 mins), all works fine and script will evaluate this as false:
if($row_laststamp['sent'] < (time()-($row_campaign['period']*3600)))
$row_laststamp['sent'] is the timestmap of last email sent ($lastTimeSent)
$row_campaign['period'] is allowed period to send the email (value is actually 0.33 as in hours its 20 minutes), and im multiplying it by 3600 to recalculate to seconds so I can compare
so basicaly will jump and do stuff only from ELSE statement as its logical and its OK behaviour
However, when im outsode of the period so the same statement would evaluate as TRUE, the very strange behaviour happens.
The script will be looping and sending emails as it should, however instead of sending 200 emails as its the value of $row_campaign['amount'], it actually sends 64 (sometimes 65 emails) and then it wont echo Sent total: ".count($array_email_ids)." emails as it should logicaly, but also shows again the ELSE output *Next emails can be send at: ".date("j.n.Y H:i:s", $row_laststamp['sent']+($row_campaign['period']3600))..
So Im dealing with the problem that its shows the IF and ELSE output at once...
In other words, when statement *if($row_laststamp['sent'] < (time()-($row_campaign['period']3600))) is TRUE, it will partialy run the loop of try {} (only 65 times out of 200) and then shows the ELSE {} anyway...
BUT !!! if I remove/comment the line $mail->send(); then ALL works as expected !!!!! (unless emails are sent of course).
I was checking the memory status if im not getting out of memory and found out the maximum in final loop is about 24MB (when limnit is set to 256MB), also execution time is around 10second when I have set 120s.
so basicaly PHPMailer wont send more then 200 emails in loop when sending just one each time?
I wouldnt mind to send them all together and not looping it, however i dont want them to be seen in "TO" header of email, and if I use BCC instead, then (at least in gmail) it jumps to spam.
Any ideas?
EDIT:
I have simplified the script, made the adjustment according to https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Sending-to-lists
also i did place the debugger $mail->SMTPDebug = SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER; to see whats happening, and its interesting that the message from client to server suddently stop in the middle... no responce from the server, so the transfer just stops in the middle...
the very last line is not even finished and it just:
2020-09-02 17:06:40 CLIENT -> SERVER: NTI1MjUyNTNGaWRfY2FtcGFpZ24lMjUyNTI1MjUyNTI1MjUyNTI1MjUyNTI1MjUyNTI1MjU
so the comunication just stops from no reason, no server reply that its sent or not, nothing...
anyone has an idea?
so the error at the end was realy that I was not clearing recipients after each send(),
therefore first email was send to 1 recipient and each loop was 1 added but previous was not cleared...
clearing recipients after each loop fixed the problem
I have this function that sends emails to customers from a folder files/weekly reports.
// Sends the "Weekly Report.pdf" file (from /files/weekly reports)
public function send_pdf_customer($prod_id){
if ($this->is_connected()){
$prod_row = $this->kas_model->get_prod_row_by_id($prod_id);
var_dump($prod_row[0]->prod_client_email);
$email = $prod_row[0]->prod_client_email;
// All recipients who get the email.
//$recipients = "me#example.com, may#example.pro, daniel.m#exmaple.com, maayan#exmaple.pro";
// $recipients = "me#example.com";
$recipients = $email;
$this->load->library('email');
$this->email->from('me#example.pro', 'example - weekly Report');
$this->email->to($recipients);
//$this->email->bcc($recipients);
$this->email->subject('example - weekly Report');
$this->email->message('Currently on test mode. Please update if you find any errors.');
$this->email->attach("files/weekly_reports/$prod_id-Weekly_report.pdf");
// SEND
$this->email->send();
return TRUE;
}
}
As you can see, I have this line:
$this->email->attach("files/weekly_reports/$prod_id-Weekly_report.pdf");
which clearly points to the file.
This is the main function that calls the send function:
public function main_weekly_report(){
$today = date('Y-m-d');
$reports = $this->kas_model->get_wr_table();
foreach ($reports as $report) {
// Outputs the current report that it is on.
var_dump($report);
// Delete the content of the folder containing the PDFs
if ($this->delete_pdf()){
// Creates a new PDF
$this->create_pdf($report->wr_app_id, $report->wr_date1, $report->wr_date2, $report->wr_date3);
// Increment "dates" to next week.
// $this->kas_model->weekly_inc_date($report->wr_id, 'wr_date1', $today);
// $this->kas_model->weekly_inc_date($report->wr_id, 'wr_date2', $today);
// Sends to the report to the customer:
if ( $this->is_connected() ) {
$this->send_pdf_customer($report->wr_app_id);
echo "Sent to customer!";
}
}
}
}
The result of this is:
the first file in the email (6-Weekly_report.pdf),
then the first AND the second file via different email (6-Weekly_report.pdf && 7-Weekly_report.pdf),
then the first, second and the third file different email ( 6-Weekly_report.pdf && 7-Weekly_report.pdf && 8-Weekly_report.pdf )... ect'.
Why is it stacking the files instead of sending them separably?
Why is it stacking the files instead of sending them separably although I delete the files using a different function? (the function works too, I had a post on it here too: How to return "TRUE" after deleting all files in a folder on my server?)
Using the delete/send functions outside the current one won't help me, because for each they send to different custumer.
I have this .php file in my config folder which the controller uses:
<?php
$config['protocol'] = "smtp";
$config['smtp_host'] = "ssl://smtp.gmail.com";
$config['smtp_port'] = "465";
$config['smtp_user'] = "my#email.com";
$config['smtp_pass'] = "hello";
$config['charset'] = "utf-8";
$config['mailtype'] = "html";
$config['newline'] = "\r\n";
$config['crlf'] = "\r\n";
$config['validate'] = FALSE;
?>
Can you please help me find a workaround?
Without being able to see the load function, it looks like it's stacking the PDF's because $this->email is the same instance every time the function is called. So when the function is called the second time, instead of creating a new email it's just re-using the old one and overriding all the previous settings, but attaching another file without removing the old one
I am trying to send emails to mutiple people with different bodies using one code, using PHPMailer via SMTP. My code is as follows :
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST")
{
require_once("class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Host = "xxxxxxxx";
$mail->SetFrom('xx#xxx.com');
$mail->Subject = "System Change";
$add = array("a", "b", "c");
foreach ( $add as $address ) {
$current = clone $mail;
if ( $address == 'a' )
{
$current->AddAddress('xx#xx.com');
$current->MsgHTML("Message1");
$current->send();
}
if ( $address == 'b' )
{
$current->AddAddress('xx#xx.com');
$current->MsgHTML("Message2");
$current->send();
}
if ( $address == 'c' )
{
$current->AddAddress('xx#xx.com');
$current->MsgHTML("Message3");
$current->send();
}
}
exit;
if($mail->Send())
{ echo "SUCCESSFUL"; }
else echo "ERROR IN SENDING MAILS";
exit;
}
?>
The issue is it is sending mails but only sending the first 2, and then displaying a timeout error. Is there any setting that I need to change or is it a problem with my code? Have edited it in many ways but it ends up sending only 2 mails instead of 3. Appreciate any help :) Thanks!
This will likely solve your issue, there is no need to clone the PHPMailer object.
I have sent hundreds of emails at once using this method with no timeout issues.
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST")
{
set_time_limit(120);
require_once("class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Host = "xxxxxxxx";
$mail->SetFrom('xx#xxx.com');
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "System Change";
$add = array("a", "b", "c");
foreach ( $add as $address ) {
$mail->clearAttachments();
$mail->clearAllRecipients();
if ( $address == 'a' )
{
$mail->AddAddress('xx#xx.com');
$mail->Body("Message1");
$mail->send();
}
if ( $address == 'b' )
{
$mail->AddAddress('xx#xx.com');
$mail->Body("Message2");
$mail->send();
}
if ( $address == 'c' )
{
$mail->AddAddress('xx#xx.com');
$mail->Body("Message3");
$mail->send();
}
}
if($mail->send()) echo "SUCCESSFUL";
else echo "ERROR IN SENDING MAILS";
exit;
}
Add the following line of code after the opening of the foreach loop
set_time_limit(60);
With this line of code, you give every mail 60 seconds to be sent. This number can be as high as you want. But I should try to keep it as low as possible
You are resetting the timelimit to 60 seconds every time this piece of code is run. Resetting it back to zero.
Base your code on the mailing list example provided with PHPMailer. Generally you don't ever want to be doing this kind of thing on a page load via a web server - run it from cron where timeouts are not an issue.
Since today, many of my php applications can not send email using SwiftMailer and different Mandrill accounts.
I've got this code, and the send function in the last if stop the script..
// Instance message
$message = Swift_Message::newInstance();
$message->setSubject("subject")
->setFrom(array('noreply#email.test' => 'test'))
->setTo(array('a_valid_email' => 'name'))
->setBody("test", 'text/html')
->setPriority(2);
$smtp_host = 'smtp.mandrillapp.com';
$smtp_port = 587;
$smtp_username = 'valid_username';
$smtp_password = 'valid_password';
// SMTP
$smtp_param = Swift_SmtpTransport::newInstance($smtp_host , $smtp_port)
->setUsername($smtp_username)
->setPassword($smtp_password);
// Instance Swiftmailer
$instance_swiftmailer = Swift_Mailer::newInstance($smtp_param);
$type = $message->getHeaders()->get('Content-Type');
$type->setValue('text/html');
$type->setParameter('charset', 'iso-8859-1');
//Here the send function stop event and I did not go inside the if
if ($instance_swiftmailer->send($message, $fail)) {
echo 'OK ';
}else{
echo 'NOT OK : ';
print_r($fail);
}
Thank you in advance to help me to solve this problem..
If your code used to work, and now doesn't work, and you didn't change your code, then it's probably not a problem with your code. Check your Mandrill account validity - sometimes they suspend accounts for suspicious-appearing usage.
I've written my own Code Igniter model for sending emails. All was fine until recently when I started to get this error:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class phpmailerException in /home/mysite/public_html/subdir/application/libraries/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php on line 2319
I'm using:
CodeIgniter 2
PHPMailer 5.1
I've tried the following to resolve it:
Added "$mail->SMTPDebug = 0" to turn off errors.
Added: "$mail->MailerDebug = false;"
Modified the PHPMailer to only show errors when SMTPDebug is turned on.
Looked for and removed any echo statements
Added try / catch blocks Tried adding / removing: $mail = new PHPMailer(true);

This Code will clear this issue 100%..
Basically one of two things is happening:
You are "including" your PHP code twice somewhere, causing the 2nd time to generate the redeclaration error
You are using "phpmailerException" somewhere else, besides your model. Have you tried to do a "find all" in your IDE for ALL calls to "phpmailerException" - perhaps you used this name in another area for another exception?
require_once("class.phpmailer.php") is better.
Mukesh is right that require_once will solve Sift Exchanges answer #1. However, there is not need to check if the class exists as require_once does that.
