}
}
my domain is hosted on GoDaddy also i have created an email there and redirect it to my gmail email...
why does my email is sent to spam folder and not on Inbox?
EDIT: my email content is basically an invitation welcome
Hello $email
$website has invited you to join the website
to join visit the following link
$link_goes_here
Thanks, the team
If you are using HTML to display your mail, you have to ensure that your mail is sent with valid html.
You can validate your mail here: http://validator.w3.org/
if it, a contact us form..
maybe you can try to send an email through Amazon SES, so google / yahoo didn't think it as a spam

I am trying to send a email for a user when he fill a form and click the submit.I have created a controller in Magento and included the following code
public function sendMailAction(){
$html="put your html content hereblah blah";
$mail = Mage::getModel('core/email');
$mail->setToName('Your Name');
$mail->setToEmail('sadeeenadeee#gmail.com');
$mail->setBody('Mail Text / Mail Content');
$mail->setSubject('Mail Subject');
$mail->setFromEmail('Sender Mail Id');
$mail->setFromName("Msg to Show on Subject");
$mail->setType('html');// YOu can use Html or text as Mail format
try {
$mail->send();
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addSuccess('Your request has been sent');
$this->_redirect('');
}
catch (Exception $e) {
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addError('Unable to send.');
$this->_redirect('');
}
}
This is the function I am planning to use to send the email.Above controller function is called for the click of the submit button.
Then I configured the outgoing SMTP email in Magento admin panel.
System > Configuration-> Mail Sending Settings
I followed the above path and added the HOST and PORT in the Mail Sending Settings and saved the config.HOST and PORT are obtained from the email service provider.But when a user fills the form and click the submit,rather than sending a email browser tries to launch a app saying that,

Help me guys, i m tired
On line 73 of the code you posted it looks like the if statement for
$this->email->send()
is failing, which then runs this:
else
{
//error
echo $this->email->print_debugger();
$this->session->set_flashdata('msg','<div class="alert alert-danger text-center">There is error in sending mail! Please try again later</div>');
redirect('contact/index');
}
I would check the configuration in Email.php - in my Codeigniter 3 project it is located here:
html/system/libraries/Email.php
At the bottom of this Codeigniter 3 API page is some info about print_debugger and about the Email library. It should help you get in the right direction.
I need some help pls.
I'm building this website using C.I 3 and it has like 3 different forms with 3 different pages (career, quote, contact) where users can fill them up and i will receive an email but only contact page is working and the remain two pages prompt and error (Unable to send email using PHP mail(). Your server might not be configured to send mail using this method) while they all fall under the same controller. can anyone help me solve this issue pls?
below is the link to my codes

there is an error in your code in last two functions "quotation() and mycareer()" missing of 2nd argument in $this->email->from()
reference link
$this->email->from($this->input->post("email") , 'Your Name');
hope it works for you.

OR you can use PHP-mail class also.. just download from GitHub or in php official site. then paste it in view folder then include it.. that's it.

You also have a very common error a lot of people have with "Contact Us" forms.
$this->email->from($this->input->post("email"));
This will break SPF and also cause DMARC to fail and you will never get the message from some people, if your mail server you use has DMARC enabled on it.
Since DMARC is a more recent protocol, a lot of the old cookie cutter code for contact us forms - doesn't take this into account.
You can read more about that here: "DMARC - Contact Form Nightmare"
The suggested workaround will be to do:
$this->email->from("me#example.com");
$this->email->subject($this->input->post("subject") . $this->input->post("email") );
This way - you avoid the issue outline in the article. You won't quickly be able to hit the "Reply" button, but at least you'll get the emails from those customers who have DMARC enabled.
I am using the codeigniter email class to send emails when the user register to my website or perform some activity inside my website.
The thing is that, with this simple code below I can only send very simple HTML emails. And also I will have to pass the entire HTML message to the function. Is there any way so that I could load the entire template in the function itself and just pass a message which is to be placed inside the template as we do in codeigniter with views.
$message = 'Thank you for your order \n';
$message .= 'We will contact you soon';
$this->email($message);
public function email($message = NULL){
$this->load->library('email');
$this->email->mailtype('html');
$this->email->from('abbbba#gmail.com', 'Sohan Kc');
$this->email->to('abbbbaa#gmail.com');
$this->email->subject('Email Test');
$this->email->message($message);
$this->email->send();
}
Why don't you just do as you already stated? :)
The email classes message method requires a string to be passed. Just load a View and pass the returned string to the method.
public function email($message = NULL){
$this->load->library('email');
$mydata = array('message' => 'I am a message that will be passed to a view');
$message = $this->load->view('my_email_template', $mydata, true);
$this->email->mailtype('html');
$this->email->from('sohanmax2#gmail.com', 'Sohan Kc');
$this->email->to('sohanmax02#gmail.com');
$this->email->subject('Email Test');
$this->email->message($message);
$this->email->send();
}
I send emails but got the html code as body, I had to add the headers to get correct content like below and it will works out.
$this->email->set_header('MIME-Version', '1.0; charset=utf-8');
$this->email->set_header('Content-type', 'text/html');
I am trying to send email via codeigniter framework via 2 different ways and on one of them my email goes to junk folder but its really weird...
so my first try was to create a Controller and put inside the index function the following code:
$this->load->library('email');
$this->email->from('no-reply#domain.example.com', 'Your Name');
$this->email->to('email#example.com');
$this->email->subject('Email Test');
$this->email->message('Testing the email class.');
$this->email->send();
echo $this->email->print_debugger();
this way the email arrives fine and not as spam...
when i create a model so i can use it later on for other features to send emails i replace the above code with the following one:
$this->load->library('email');
$this->load->model("email_model");
$this->email_model->sendEmail(null, 'email#gmail.com', 'title', 'message');
and email_model Model contains the following code :
<?php
class email_model extends CI_Model {
function __construct()
{
// Call the Model constructor
parent::__construct();
}
public function sendEmail($from = null, $to = null, $subject = null, $message = null){
$this->email->from('no-reply#domain.com', 'from user');
$this->email->to($to);
$this->email->subject($subject);
$this->email->message($message);
$this->email->send();
}
}
why does that happen?
check your spf records and RDNS records
SPF
here is an article # mediatemple kb: http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/658/How+can+I+create+an+SPF+record+for+my+domain%3F#gs
RDNS
here is an article on RDNS:
http://www.crucialp.com/resources/tutorials/web-hosting/how-reverse-dns-works-rdns.php
seems content was the reason on the 2nd try... adding more text solved the issue...
