Formmail ini_set

[ultratek]

I was wondering how i look up the ini_set of my hosting provider for my mail process form?

example:ini_set("SMTP","bosmail.nt.com");

 

the above line was gave to me...but i need to be able to find this on my own.

Try using the server IP address or the IP that your domain name resolves to.

thanks i will try that.

ini_get().

[ultratek]

how would i query with ini_get()...to get the information for: ini_set('sendmail_from', '[email protected]);

[trq]

ini_get will retrieve settings. eg;

 

<?php echo ini_get('SMTP'); ?>

 

Is that what your after?

[ultratek]

yes...thankyou...

 

i tried the address the ini_get came back with

and i get this:

PHP Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 501 Incorrect Address Format in C:\Websites\efficaciousplanet368\justinvenablephoto.com\handle_form.php on line 27

 

here is the code:

<?php
ini_set("SMTP","smtp1.easycgi.com");
$name = $_POST['name'];
$phone = $_POST['email'];
$email = $_POST['phone'];
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$comments = $_POST['comments'];

$name = $name; //senders name
$email = $email; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = "[email protected]"; //recipient
//$recipient = "[email protected]"; //recipient
//$recipient = "[email protected]"; //recipient

$comments = "$comments...\n\n".$phone;
$subject = $subject; //subject
$header = "From: ". $name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields

mail($recipient, $subject, $comments, $header); //mail command 


?>

If ini_get is already returning that same address there is no need to try and set it again using ini_set, its already set.

 

Your FROM header needs to be a valid email address, not a name.
