Sending Authentication Mails
when users are register on our website, their username, encrpyted password and so on are stored in the mySQL database. Many phpbb sites though send an activation mail to the email address specified by the user. The user then needs to select a link to get his account activated. I would like to implement this process, can anyone tell me how this is done?

Problem Sending E-mails
When I send e-mails to users they(emails) always reach them in text format, independent of the users preferences. Also, when I send test e-mails the one that is sent as in html format contains urls next to url names, i.e. all the web addresses in href= are seen in the e-mail.

Mail() Sending Double E-mails...
I have the following function setup to submit some form data to a client and to myself. It works, however it sends two copies of the e-mail to each of us. Note that I'm using simply '' after the headers as '' was printing the headers in the body of the e-mail rather than apply the header.....

70 Characters Limit When Sending Mails
I have built a "contact us" form on my Web site and am using the PHP mail() function to send an e-mail to the Webmaster (that's me :-)) Everything works fine. What I would like to know however is whether it is always necessary to limit each line of the message to 70 characters, as is written in the documentation of the function (writing for instance $this->message = wordwrap($message, 70)). It seems to work fine without doing it in my case and the text is easier to read. I guess there must be a reason for the limit, but how to find out when it is needed?

Can we set up a mail program that the mail can sent frequently..ie may be daily or weekly or monthly... with out using scheduled tasks or crone jobs. for eg .. can we create a page that works like the scheduled tasks page( there we can set up the time at which time the program will execute )..that means we have options in our webpage to set up the time at which the mail will sent. for eg..every monday.. can we set up this in the program without using scheduled tasks or crone jobs. can we run our page frequently without using crone jobs .

E-mails Not Getting Through
The visitor fills in the form and clicks "request" and an e-mail is sent to both the visitor confirming the bookign request and an e-mail gets sent to the site owner askign for details. The script is all working apart from when the e-mail is sent to the visitor the e-mail gets put in their junkmail folder so they dont receive it, i have tried this with 4 of my different e-mail address (Btinternet, work mail server, hotmail) and they are all put in the junk folder.. Is there something I have to put in the mail() function that doesnt put it in the junk folder? otherwise this script is pointless..

Sending Mail: Choice Between Sending Receipt, Or HTML Formatting
I'm using PHP's mail function to send out a message via email. I would like for this email message to send a receipt when read as well as send an HTML formatted email. Both aspects are important to me. I know this is a product of the mail header. This is the format I currently have: mail(to, subject, body, "From: name <email> Disposition-Notification-To: name<email> Content-type:text/html;charset=utf-8"); This prompts the email program to send a reciept, but the email message is not in the HTML format, and even contains "Content-type:text/html;charset=utf-8" at the top of the body. If I switch the order to this format: mail(to, subject, body, "From: name <email> Content-type:text/html;charset=utf-8 Disposition-Notification-To: name<email>"); This sends the email with HTML formatting but does not prompt the sending of the receipt. I also get "Disposition-Notification-To: name<email>" at the top of the email message. This tells me there is a problem in the transition between the headers, which currently is "". What am I doing wrong?

'umlauts' In E-Mails
I need to send umlauts(öäü) in my E-Mail-subjects (yes because I'm German), but they need to be encoded. When I send an email with Outlook, it converts "Urlaub ist schön" to Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Re:_Urlaub_ist_sch=F6n?= How can I do that encoding by myself or is there a special function for that ??

Send Many Mails
I have a site with more than 50,000 user and I want to send newsletters to each of our site user. If I use the normal "mail" command in PHP, it will create a heavy load for the server so that after sending the email, because of the heavy traffic which gets created on the server, the email will either not be send or it can take up to one week till it gets send out.

Securing E-mails
I have a form located on my site where the transmitted information needs to be secure (i.e. sensitive information). I am using the php mail() function through the SMTP server on Microsoft IIS 6.0 to deliver these messages to one specific e-mail address. I currently have SSL installed and located on the pages that house the forms however I need the email to be encrypted to the recipient and then for them to decrypt the information.

Personalised E-mails With If Clauses
I am building a system to deal with inscriptions to events. There is a backoffice which allows administrators to send emails to all or to a sub-set of the participants. The administrators can enter the text of the emails, using a template-like syntax to add fields from the database. For example : "Dear {title} {first_name} {last_name}" will produce "Dear John Doe". But I would need to add a degree in the way emails can be personalised, with if .... elseif ... elseif ... else ... clauses. For example : {if (transport = 'train')} We noted that you will come by train + instructions to come from the train station. {elseif (transport = 'plane')} We noted that you will fligh to Paris + instructions to come.... {elseif (transport = 'car')} Blablabla.... {endif} I could use PHP syntax for the content of the mail and just eval( ) it or do something like that, but I don't want to allow anything else than if ... elseif ... else ... clauses. I could also use a template system (Smarty) but for many reasons I don't use any of those anymore.

Automatic Scheduled E-mails
I have a website that I am building in PHP that I would like to send e-mails to users every 2 days to inform of new updates. I know how to trigger the sending of e-mails if a user enters the site, and can limit this to only happening once every 2 days, but I am interested to know if it is possible to have PHP send e-mails automatically in case no one visits the site?

How To Send More Than 100 HTML E-mails
We have a database with thousands of e-mail addresses, but our users can filter through those. Normally, they will filter down to about 100 e-mail addresses, and the way we have it set up now, they can check those and click an "E-mail Selected" button. That button is simply linked to a href="mailto:" link that will open up an Outlook message with those e-mail addresses in the To: field. But the problem we're having is that Outlook doesn't accept over about 60-ish e-mail addresses to send to. If a user clicks the button to try to send an e-mail to 90 users, the Outlook message doesn't even show up. So now I need to know if there is a better way to send out these messages. Our users need to be able to send a fully customizeable HTML message (like you would design in Outlook) to more than 60 e-mail addresses. What are my options here? I already use PHPMailer for sending e-mails to one or two e-mail addresses.

Move Mails From One Into Another POP3-Account
I'm going to write a anti-spam-program based on a Whitelist. "If the mail sender is found in the database, my program should move the mail into another mailbox". The mailserver fetched the mails from the clean pop3-account. The problem is a problem because the function imap_move() can only move mails from one folder in the mailbox into another folder.

Problem Receiving Notification Emails To Mails
I'm sending emails to the subscribers of my site using mail() with a fourth parameter to specify the From: and Reply-To: headers. They seem to be sent correctly and the users may reply to them and I get the replies in the mailbox identified by these headers. The problem is some email addresses I'm sending email to are incorrect, and I should be receiving the email notification saying that the email could not be delivered. But I'm not receiving these messages in my mailbox. Any ideas why this could be so? PHP Code:
