Good day, i have written code to send mail to email with an pdf attachment.The pdf is receive when it is send to a gmail account,but when it is send to an exchange mail account,it just looks as in the picture.A lot of nonsens.

my statement.pdf is in the folder mainfolder/fpdf

i have tried various options,but just can not get this to work.Any help is appreciated.

this is the code i am using

$filename="statement.pdf";

        $subject= "Statement";
        $recipient = "email1@gmail.com,email2@namibia.com.na";
        $email="email@snappy.com";
    

        //documentation for Output method here: http://www.fpdf.org/en/doc/output.htm
        $attach_pdf_multipart = chunk_split( base64_encode( $pdf->Output( $filename, 'S' ) ) );

        //define the receiver of the email
        $to = "email1@gmail.com,email2@namibia.com.na";

        //define the subject of the email
        $subject = 'Statement';
        //create a boundary string. It must be unique
        //so we use the MD5 algorithm to generate a random hash
        $random_hash = md5(date('r', time()));
        //define the headers we want passed. Note that they are separated with \r\n
        $headers = "From: email@snappy.com\r\nReply-To: email@snappy.com";
        //add boundary string and mime type specification
        $headers .= "\r\nContent-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"PHP-mixed-".$random_hash."\"";
        $headers .= "\r\n";
        
 
        $msg .= "Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name=\"statement.pdf\"\r\n";
        $msg .= "\r\n";
        $msg .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\r\n";
        $msg .= "Content-Disposition: attachment\r\n";

1 - please post all code using the <> icon above.

2 - strongly suggest using PHPMailer as your mail tool  It will make what you are trying to do soooo much easier.[

3 - please us the <> tool above to post your code.   (Get the point?)

i tried to use phpmailer,but can not get it to work.If you can posisble give me a small sample with an attachment,i would really appreciate it.

I created a folder phpmail and copied the phpmailer.php file in that folder.

 

then created a test script,but i can not get it to work

If you're copying phpmailer.php into a directory manually you're not using the correct thing (or it's not being used correctly). PHPMailer is installed via composer and very well documented.

Did you read the instructions when you downloaded it?  It is really very simple but, like all things involved with coding, one has to read the instructions.

do i need php on my machine to install the phpmailer with the composer? On this moment i do not have it. The instructions sayd you do not need the composer,then you have to manually include the files in you code.Which i did.But when i run it,i just get to nr 4. It do not want to add the address. 

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;
echo "2";

require('./src/PHPMailer.php');
echo "3";
require('./src/Exception.php');

echo "na require";

$email= new PHPMailer();
echo "4";

$mail->setFrom('darth@empire.com', 'Darth Vader');
echo "5";
   $mail->send();
   echo "after send";

Paying attention to the spelling would give it more of a chance.

$email= new PHPMailer();
 ^
echo "4";

$mail->setFrom('darth@empire.com', 'Darth Vader');
