I am trying to send an HTML mail through PHP, but I can't seem to get it working.
This is my code:
// multiple recipients
$to = 'mail';
// subject
$subject = 'Subject';
// message
$message = "
<html>
<head>
<title>Thanks</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<b>Thanks for your email</b>
</div>
</body>
</html>
";
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: info <info#example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Pynix <info#example.com>' . "\r\n";
// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
This also doesn't show any sender when I receive it in Outlook.
Anyone an idea?
Thanks
I don't think you have to put the To: line in the header as it is a parameter of the mail function.
However some mail clients don't like light headers, here's mine which is working:
$header = 'From: "Contact" <mail>'.PHP_EOL.
'Reply-to: <mail>'.PHP_EOL.
'MIME-Version: 1.0'.PHP_EOL.
'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8'.PHP_EOL.
'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit'.PHP_EOL.
'X-Mailer: PHP/'.PHP_VERSION.PHP_EOL;
I use SwiftMailer:
require_once('../lib/swiftMailer/lib/swift_required.php');
...
function sendEmail(){
//Sendmail
$transport = Swift_SendmailTransport::newInstance('/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs');
//Create the Mailer using your created Transport
$mailer = Swift_Mailer::newInstance($transport);
$body="Dear $fname,\n\nYour job application was successful. \n\nYours,\n\nEamorr\n\n\n\n\n\n\n";
//Create a message
$message = Swift_Message::newInstance('Subject goes here')
->setFrom(array($email => "no-reply#yourdomain.com"))
->setTo(array($email => "$fname $lname"))
->setBody($body);
//Send the message
$result = $mailer->send($message);
}
You can send both plaintext and html email with ease.
Fixed.
I found this which for some reason worked perfectly on my server:
// Set The Headers:
$headers = 'From: "Me" <info#skillsexchangenetwork.net>'.PHP_EOL.
'Reply-to: <Me#Him.com>'.PHP_EOL.
'Cc: <Her #There.com>'.PHP_EOL.
'MIME-Version: 1.0'.PHP_EOL.
'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.PHP_EOL.
'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit'.PHP_EOL.
'X-Mailer: PHP/'.PHP_VERSION.PHP_EOL;
// Send:
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
Thanks for the input guys.

I tried sending HTML mails through PHP but nothing is working. I tried two options.
One with file_get_contents:
<?php
$to = 'teas#gmail.com';
$subject = 'Marriage Proposal';
$from = 'support#blabla.com';
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
// Create email headers
$headers .= 'From: '.$from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$message = file_get_contents("email_template.html");
// Sending email
if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)){
echo 'Your mail has been sent successfully.';
} else{
echo 'Unable to send email. Please try again.';
}
?>
And one with HTML in a PHP string:
<?php
$to = 'anthony#gmail.com';
$subject = 'Marriage Proposal';
$from = 'peterparker#email.com';
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
// Create email headers
$headers .= 'From: '.$from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
// Compose a simple HTML email message
$message = '<html><body>';
$message .= '<h1 style="color:#f40;">Hi Jane!</h1>';
$message .= '<p style="color:#080;font-size:18px;">Will you marry me?</p>';
$message .= '</body></html>';
// Sending email
if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)){
echo 'Your mail has been sent successfully.';
} else{
echo 'Unable to send email. Please try again.';
}
?>
The response for both functions is:
Unable to send email. Please try again. Unable to send email. Please
try again.
Can anyone tell me whats wrong?
Just enable the HTML in php mailer
$mail->isHTML(true);
For refrence please see here the example in github
How to check if mail was send or not using php ?
I use this code for send email using php. It's work good.
But i want to check email send success or not, How can i do that ?
<?PHP
$to = "test#mail.com";
$subject = "test subject";
$message = "test message";
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: SENDER <noreply#sender.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Return-Path: return#sender.com' . "\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, '-freturn#sender.com');
?>
On sending a mail I've set my header to:
$headers = 'From: Tómas<tomas#email.com>'. "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\n";
for mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
The Tómas is working in the content correctly but not in the from section of the email. It shows up like Tómas. Any idea how to modify the header to make this work?
Many thanks.
Tó = Tó
change the following line
$headers = 'From: Tómas<tomas#email.com>'. "\r\n";
with
$headers = 'From: Tomas<tomas#email.com>' . "\r\n";
<?php
// multiple recipients
$to = 'ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com';
// subject
$subject = 'Birthday Reminders for August';
// message
$message = '<html>
<head></head>
<body>Content here and this is a link</body>
</html>';
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
// Additional headers
$headers = 'To: Mary <ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Birthday Reminder <ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset: utf8\r\n";
echo "To : ".$to;
// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
please solved this . when i added Download in the mail body mail not send.
if i remove this a tag mail sent and all other content display as per my requirement .
I dont know where is the exact problem, i m using godady hosting with PHP 5.3 version.
if any one have better solutions please share with me .
I've adjusted your code a little bit. Main change is in From: header - $header = "From: \"HCS Support Team\" <$from_id>\r\n" . "Reply-To: $from_id\r\n";
$erm.= '<TR>
<TD WIDTH="50%">' . "Download-" . $j . '</TD>
<TD WIDTH="50%">Download</TD>
</TR>';
$from_id = "support#xyz.com";
$header = "From: \"HCS Support Team\" <$from_id>\r\n" . "Reply-To: $from_id\r\n";
$header .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$header .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$header .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion() . "\r\n";
$subject = "Request for Case Study Solution Received";
#mail("ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com", $subject, $erm, $header);
It seems the mail is being sent, but it goes straight to SPAM folder. Please read about spam rules which make the mails go to spam folder: http://spamassassin.apache.org/tests_3_3_x.html
In your case the main problem with gmail is probably it's being sent with standard PHP mail function. Please try PHPMailer or PEAR::Mail.
The rules which are met by spamassasin in your mail are:
HTML_MESSAGE
HTML_MIME_NO_HTML_TAG
MIME_HTML_ONLY
When I added "a href tag " in the mail body the mail is not sent.
If I remove this 'a href and www' tag, the mail sends and all other content display as per my requirement.
I don't know where is the exact problem, I'm using GoDaddy hosting with PHP 5.3 version.
If anyone has a better solutions please share with me .
<?php
// multiple recipients
$to = 'ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com';
// subject
$subject = 'Birthday Reminders for August';
// message
$message = '<a href=www.google.com>Click here</a>';
// To send HTML `enter code here`mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary <ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Birthday Reminder <ali.dzinemedia#gmail.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
echo "To : ".$to;
// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
Use this as the header:
$header = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$header .= "Content-type: text/html; charset: utf8\r\n";
that's if you want to use HTML in the body, but you have to create well formatted HTML, you know with all of its tags: html, head, body, and close them all.
<html>
<head></head>
<body>Content here and this is a link</body>
</html>
I had the same problem once, turned out my spam filter blocked the mail when a link was in it and let it trough when I removed the link.
Took me some time to notice that
