I recently switched to a virtual server that I have to manage. Since then I have had a problem with this PHP form. On the old server it would send the email over no problem (example1) But once I switched to this new server I get the email in a HTML Hard code format (Example 2) I am new to this whole unmanaged server thing and the host tells me it my code. Here is the actual PHP Used I have attached it Formmailer.zip. Any Help would be great Since I cannot figure it out.  I am sure its some small detail.

 

 

Thank you in advance.

SO I talked with my server tech support and they are telling me it is a problem in the code and I needed to use the sendmail path /usr/sbin/sendmail. and  "You need to us SMTP port 25 and server name mail.domainname.com" I think I have this right but The Email still comes through as hard html code and the sender address says anonymous@domainname.com instead of Birthday Reminder <birthday@example.com>

 

Can Someone please look this over and lend a hand.

 

 

Test Code for sending email

 

<?php

// multiple recipients

$to  = 'promodaddy@gmail.com' . ', '; // note the comma

$to .= 'ianmcroberts@gmail.com';

 

// subject

$subject = 'Birthday Reminders for August';

 

// message

$message = '

<html>

<head>

<title>Birthday Reminders for August</title>

</head>

<body>

<p>Here are the birthdays upcoming in August!</p>

<table>

<tr><th>Person</th><th>Day</th><th>Month</th><th>Year</th></tr>

<tr><td>Joe</td><td>3rd</td><td>August</td><td>1970</td></tr>

<tr><td>Sally</td><td>17th</td><td>August</td><td>1973</td></tr>

</table>

</body>

</html>

';

 

 

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

 

// Additional headers

$headers .= 'To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>' . "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

$headers .= 'From: Birthday Reminder <birthday@example.com>' . "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

$headers .= 'Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com' . "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

$headers .= 'Bcc: birthdaycheck@example.com' . "/usr/sbin/sendmail";

 

// Mail it

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

?>

I think it's in the header. I don't know for sure what it is, but I'd strip the header down to bare minimum and start to build back up. I have a script at work that sends an HTML email, its header only contains the Content Type ; charset, and the From: email@host.domain.

I'm not at work now, so I don't have it in front of me, but I think mine looks like this:

$header = 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\nFrom: email@host.domain';

The biggest difference is the new line seperator. ..and isn't the sendmail path only supposed to be in the ini, not in the email headers?
