JakeTheSnake3.0 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I know my mail() script is working because I can receive emails from the server. The only problems I am having are that my email isn't 'set up' properly...and when I say 'set up', I mean that there's something screwy going on, or I don't understand something that is causing some problems to occur. Let's say I want to make an email which contains plain text as a default, but if the user has HTML enabled then the HTML text will show instead. Also, in that same email I want to attach 1 or more files. That is example 1. In example 2, I want to send the email without any attachments but with both plain text and html text. The 3rd example is when I would want to send plain text with an attachment. Here is what I have in the email once it is sent by the server... To: Subject: Test From: <[email protected]> Reply-To: <[email protected]> X-Sender: <[email protected]> X-Mailer: PHP/4.4.4 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="PHP-mixed-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58" Message-Id: <this_works_so_ingore_it> Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2007 11:51:15 -0400 This message contains one or more attachments. --PHP-mixed-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="PHP-alt-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58" This message contains both plain text and html text. --PHP-alt-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58 Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Plain text... --PHP-alt-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58 Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> <head><title>Website</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-us" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.website.com/css/email.css" title="Email CSS" /> </head> <body> <h1>OMG</h1> <p>I can't believe this worked!</p> </body> </html> --PHP-alt-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58 Content-Type: image/jpeg; name="grand_opening.jpg" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="grand_opening.jpg" Content-Location: grand_opening.jpg [ATTACHMENT CONTENT] --PHP-mixed-3953d7db39fdc1ca821af7e1f3dc2a58-- Am I doing something wrong with the above code? Can anyone suggest anything? Also something of note...in Thunderbird, the attachment arrives just fine...but it also appears in the body...probably just a feature. But in Outlook 2003, the attachment doesn't even get recognized...it gets downloaded, but it doesn't allow me to open/save.
