GoDaddy PHP Mail () Problems

[jason360]

Hey guys, bit of a newb here.  But I am having a brutal time trying to get the php mail() function to work with GoDaddy.  I contacted them and they said I must use their PHP gdform.php script to send out emails.  My script sends the emails from register.php and  functions.php.  Does anyone know how I can integrate godaddy's gdform.php to work with my functions.php mail() script.  Doesn't make sense to me my go daddy makes this so difficult to use a simple function.

 

Thanks in advance!!!

 

 

My register.php script

 

<?php


include ('config.inc.php');
include ('functions.php');

// Those two files can be included only if INCLUDE_CHECK is defined


session_name('wkLogin');
// Starting the session

session_set_cookie_params(2*7*24*60*60);
// Making the cookie live for 2 weeks

session_start();

if($_SESSION['id'] && !isset($_COOKIE['wkRemember']) && !$_SESSION['rememberMe'])
{
// If you are logged in, but you don't have the wkRemember cookie (browser restart)
// and you have not checked the rememberMe checkbox:

$_SESSION = array();
session_destroy();

// Destroy the session
}


if(isset($_GET['logoff']))
{
$_SESSION = array();
session_destroy();

header("Location: tester.php");
exit;
}

if($_POST['submit']=='Login')
{
// Checking whether the Login form has been submitted

$err = array();
// Will hold our errors


if(!$_POST['username'] || !$_POST['password'])
	$err[] = 'All the fields must be filled in!';

if(!count($err))
{
	$_POST['username'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
	$_POST['password'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']);
	$_POST['rememberMe'] = (int)$_POST['rememberMe'];

	// Escaping all input data

	$row = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT id,usr FROM wk_members WHERE usr='{$_POST['username']}' AND pass='".md5($_POST['password'])."'"));

	if($row['usr'])
	{
		// If everything is OK login

		$_SESSION['usr']=$row['usr'];
		$_SESSION['id'] = $row['id'];
		$_SESSION['rememberMe'] = $_POST['rememberMe'];

		// Store some data in the session

		setcookie('wkRemember',$_POST['rememberMe']);
	}
	else $err[]='Wrong username and/or password!';
}

if($err)
$_SESSION['msg']['login-err'] = implode('<br />',$err);
// Save the error messages in the session

header("Location: tester.php");
exit;
}
else if($_POST['submit']=='Register')
{
// If the Register form has been submitted

$err = array();

if(strlen($_POST['username'])<4 || strlen($_POST['username'])>32)
{
	$err[]='Your username must be between 3 and 32 characters!';
}

if(preg_match('/[^a-z0-9\-\_\.\@]+/i',$_POST['username']))
{
	$err[]='Your username contains invalid characters!';
}

if(!checkEmail($_POST['email']))
{
	$err[]='Your email is not valid!';
}

if(!count($err))
{
	// If there are no errors

	$pass = substr(md5($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'].microtime().rand(1,100000)),0,6);
	// Generate a random password

	$_POST['email'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']);
	$_POST['username'] = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
	// Escape the input data


	mysql_query("	INSERT INTO wk_members(usr,pass,email,regIP,dt)
					VALUES(

						'".$_POST['username']."',
						'".md5($pass)."',
						'".$_POST['email']."',
						'".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."',
						NOW()

					)");

	if(mysql_affected_rows($link)==1)
	{
		send_mail(	'[email protected]', 
					$_POST['email'],
					'Registration System Demo - Your New Password',
					'Your password is: '.$pass);

		$_SESSION['msg']['reg-success']='We sent you an email with your new password!';
	}
	else $err[]='This username is already taken!';
}

if(count($err))
{
	$_SESSION['msg']['reg-err'] = implode('<br />',$err);
}	

header("Location: tester.php");
exit;
}

$script = '';

if($_SESSION['msg'])
{
// The script below shows the sliding panel on page load

$script = '
<script type="text/javascript">

	$(function(){

		$("div#panel").show();
		$("#toggle a").toggle();
	});

</script>';

}
?>

 

 

My Mail() funtions.php script

<?php


function checkEmail($str)
{
return preg_match("/^[\.A-z0-9_\-\+]+[@][A-z0-9_\-]+([.][A-z0-9_\-]+)+[A-z]{1,4}$/", $str);
}


function send_mail($from,$to,$subject,$body)
{
$headers = '';
$headers .= "From: $from\n";
$headers .= "Reply-to: $from\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: $from\n";
$headers .= "Message-ID: <" . md5(uniqid(time())) . "@" . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . ">\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Date: " . date('r', time()) . "\n";

mail($to,$subject,$body,$headers);
}
?>

 

 

 

Godaddys gdform.php

 

<?php
$request_method = $_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"];
if($request_method == "GET")
{
	$query_vars = $_GET;
} 
elseif ($request_method == "POST")
{
	$query_vars = $_POST;
}

reset($query_vars);
$t = date("U");
$file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "\ssfm\gdform_" . $t;
$fp = fopen($file,"w");

while (list ($key, $val) = each ($query_vars)) 
{
	fputs($fp,"<GDFORM_VARIABLE NAME=$key START>\r\n"); 
	fputs($fp,"$val\r\n");
	fputs($fp,"<GDFORM_VARIABLE NAME=$key END>\r\n");
	if ($key == "redirect") 
	{ 
		$landing_page = $val;
	}
}

fclose($fp);

if ($landing_page != "")
{
	header("Location: http://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]."/$landing_page");
} 
else 
{
	header("Location: http://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]."/");
}
?>

 

 

 

 

Just a basic email test gives me this error:  Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "relay-hosting.secureserver.net" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in D:\hosting\7746358\html\testmail.php on line 7

Mail Sent.

 

 

mailtest.php

 

<?php
$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Test mail";
$message = "Hello! This is a simple email message.";
$from = "[email protected]";
$headers = "From:" . $from;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "Mail Sent.";
?>

I had a similar problem months ago.

I don't recall how I solved it other than ignoring GoDaddy completely.
