Mail with simple .txt attachment gone wrong.

[Kyrus]

Hello.

 

Very quick version: Does anyone know how to encode an attachment in MIME to accept line rbeaks in.txt documents?

 

Long version:

 

I have this code that puts the attachment into my email that I'm gonna send below on the code.

 

$fileatt = "encomendas/$filename.txt"; // Path to the file
$fileatt_type = "text/html"; // File Type
$fileatt_name = "$filename.txt"; // Filename that will be used for the file as the attachment
$email_from = "[email protected]"; // Who the email is from
$email_subject = "Encomenda"; // The Subject of the email
$email_txt = "Dados do Cliente referente a Medicalexpress online<br>\n<br>\nNúmero: $nr <br>\n Nome: $name <br>\n Endereço: $endereco <br>\n Localidade: $localidade <br>\n Código postal: $cod_postal <br>\n País: $pais <br>\n Telefone: $telefone <br>\n Fax: $fax <br>\n Profissão: $profissao <br>\n Actividade: $actividade <br>\n Met. pagamento: $metpag <br>\n Email: $email <br>\n Nr. Contribuinte: $nrcont <br>\n Mensagem: $msg";
$email_to = "[email protected]"; // Who the email is too
$headers = "From: ".$email_from;

$file = fopen($fileatt,'rb');
$enc_txt = fread($file,filesize($fileatt));
fclose($file);

$semi_rand = md5(time());
$mime_boundary = "==Multipart_Boundary_x{$semi_rand}x";

$headers .= "\nMIME-Version: 1.0\n" .
"Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n" .
" boundary=\"{$mime_boundary}\"";

$email_message .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n\n" .
"--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type:text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n" .
$email_message . "\n\n" .
$email_txt . "\n\n";


$enc_txt = chunk_split(base64_encode($enc_txt));

$email_message .= "--{$mime_boundary}\n" .
"Content-Type: {$fileatt_type};\n" .
" name=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
//"Content-Disposition: attachment;\n" .
//" filename=\"{$fileatt_name}\"\n" .
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n\n" .
$enc_txt . "\n\n" .
"--{$mime_boundary}--\n";

 

It works. It sends the .txt attachment I want in the email.

 

The thing is, the .txt that comes with the email isint accepting line breaks. I guess it has to do with the base64 encoding so please can anyone tell me how to encode my .txt to accept line breaks?

 

Thank you.

Use PEAR MAIL::MIME or swiftmailer libraries for sending attachments

http://pear.php.net/package/Mail_Mime

Not that base64 crap and mail();

PHPMailer also works well for that sort of thing:
