Mail() Delivery Receipt
I've currently got a simple php script that sends emails out and asks for a read receipt from the recipient; $headers .= "Disposition-Notification-To:<xxx.xxx@xxx.com>"; This is all well and good if the user clicks the 'send read receipt' confirmation. however they may not. Is there anyway I can 'prove' that the email was sent in the first place i.e. a delivery (as opposed to receipt) confirmation?

Incoming Mail Shall Execute Php-script
the task: Any mail that drops into a specified mailbox shall cause a (php-)script to immediately react with some action. Quite a common task, isn't it? I could use e.g. cron to let a script frequently look for new mail. But mail drops in only once every few days, so I don't want to execute that look-for-new-mail-script every 3 minutes. But IF mail drops in, the reaction should be as quick as possible. Is there a way to watch the mailbox and run the script when the mb changes? Or could the mailserver be told to run that script when such mail drops in? It's a Redhat Linus. Probably running in a more or less "standard" configuaration (what ever that is...) I don't know which mailserver is running there, but when I connect via SMTP the server says: ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.10/8.11.6; Fri, 30 Jul 2004 15:30:22 +0200 And on connection via POP3 it says: +OK POP3 v2000.70rh server ready I don't have root access and cannot access the relevant config files. But I guess I could convince the admin to set up sth. if I tell him exactly what I want...

Can't Execute Mail() Or Shell_exec, Safe_mode Is OFF.
I'm having a problem executing external commands when the code is executed through the web server (user: www). If I execute the scripts as a user other than www, they all work fine. PHP's safe_mode is OFF. For example, I can send mail in a script when executed in the shell, but the same script when executed through the browser (i.e, using the web server) fails. The same happens with shell_exec. I've verified that other users can execute the scripts. PHP is allowed to create and delete files and all sorts of other things, but calling external commands doesn't work: Here is the debug output from ZDE when trying to send mail: Debug Warning: /includes/HSForms.class.php line 584 - mail(): Could not execute mail delivery program '/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i ' The sendmail binary has proper privileges... so as far as I can tell, this is not being allowed before that is even tested. To top it all off, this was ALL working great last week.

Preparing An EMail And Sending It To A Mail Program
I am attempting to create an eMail but rather than send it I need to open it in the local eMail program (e.g. Outlook Express, Eudora, etc.). I am basically trying to do an extended version of an HTML mailto: tag. The idea is to have a button that will open up a new eMail message in the local eMail program with everything defined (cc, subject, and message) except for the recipient. The recipient information needs to be pulled from the local eMail program's address book. I have pretty much got it done except all of my spaces are plus signs (+) even after I have already urlencoded the information.

Execute A Windows Program From An Anchor Tag
I believe I am close but I have spent several hours investigating this and can't understand why it won't work. I have tried exec, system, and settled on popen from reading various notes on the subject. I am wanting to launch a file editor when I click on a link. This is strictly an internal application so I don't need to worry about escaping shell/args. This is what seems as if it should work, however it doesn't. This is on XP, latest Apache 1.3.29 and PHP.

Sending HTML Mail To Outlook Express With Mail()
I'm sending out an HTML mailer using the mail() function in PHP. I'm appending all of the headers to the message. This message displays correctly in Hotmail, Outlook 2000, and even Mac's OSX mail client. But, for some reason, Outlook Expess (on Win XP & OSX) displays the HTML code and doesn't render it. If, however, the recipient copies the HTML code and composes a new HTML message in Outlook Express, it gets sent correctly. This particular user is also getting other HTML mailers that display correctly, so I know that the client is capable of accepting HTML mail. I'm led to believe that PHP's mail() headers are not being interpreted correctly. In fact, they appear as the first 3 lines in the body of the message when viewed in Outlook Express. OK, here are some samples to tie this all together: First, the mail() code I'm using: PHP Code:

Emails Blocked By Certain Mail Hosts? (mail() Function)
I'm using mail($address,$subjectheading,$message,"From: me@mysite.com") to send emails from my site. For the most part, it works okay (for example, I receive the mail in my Yahoo box). But when I check my university email, the message is not delivered. I thought maybe it was because I had included my web address in the subject heading and that it was being filtered out, but I removed that from the subject and it still fails to get through. I'm making a wedding site for some friends now and they want to be able to email everyone on their guest list at once, but I'm afraid the same will happen to some of these addresses as well. Any comments/suggestions on what may be blocking the mail and how I can get around it? I'm not trying to send out any kind of mass ad mailings or anything. Just to people on a mailing list for this site.

Mail Form Not Sending Mail - Server2003
I am trying to test a simple feedback form. I have php 5.0.3.3 on my dev Windows server 2003. SMTP is working fine, as we all use it to send mail from. PHP works fine as well, but I just cant get mail sent by php, although no errors are reported. Do I understand it correctly that this simple script should send me a mail? This is just to test that it works. <?php mail('me@whatever.com', 'My Subject', 'message'); header( "Location: http://webserver/message_sent.htm" ); ?> Okay, the " Location: http://webserver/message_sent.htm" comes up fine, and "<?php phpinfo() ?>" also works fine. SMTP allows relay from my subnet and does not need authentication.

Mail() / Sendmail Sending Mail As Spam
Wondering if anybody knows why when sending mail through my local sendmail program using the PHP mail() function; emails either do not reach the destination, or register as spam? Prime example is: h0tm@il addresses never receive the email, gmail addresses consider the email to be spam, and my workplace receive the email about 1 hour after the program finishes. Could it be a problem with my ISP? I am using Fedora Core 6, PHP 5 and Apache 2. Or test it yourself.. just fill out the form with some rubbish and it should send an email saying you've registered.. maybe you can figure out where I am going wrong by looking at the headers? http://aaronweb.no-ip.com:6969/?p=2

PHP Mail() Function Failing To Send Mail
Our setup: PHP 4.3.11, FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE, Sendmail 8.1, 1 host environment, 2 jails. Our problem: While we can send email from the command line just fine in one of the jails, we cannot use the php mail() command to send email using sendmail at all. The function, when executed, does absolutely nothing. No error, no reports to the maillog, nothing. I've read somewhere that it's "not possible" to send mail using the php mail() function within a freebsd jail, but i'm nearly certain we have it working this way on another server, but can't seem to figure out the issue.

Send Out The Most Basic E-mail Using PHP And The Mail() Function.
im trying to send out the most basic e-mail using PHP and the mail() function. the problem i have is that it will always return true but the message is never received and im not sure if its even sent. heres my code.... $email = "jonathangilmartin@yahoo.co.uk"; $subject = "Subject!"; $body = "whatever you want to email"; $from = "From: Jon <john@beach.es>"; $p5 = '-f john@beach.es'; if(mail($to,$subj,$mesg,$from,$p5)){ echo " sent ok "; } else { echo " failed "; } I think the problem I have could be due to the server I am hosting the site on, but dont quote me on this as im not sure. The site is hosted on my university server, ive now graduated so I cannot ask the support team if any ports are blocked. Does anyone know a way of testing a servers ports, if this is even necessary of course ! can anyone explain the typical server requirements to send e-mail using PHP, i assume port 25 must be open and the server must accept SMTP. Forgive me for asking a dumb question but I take it that i cannot test the mail() function from my testing apache server installed on my local PC ? Also you will have noticed that i have a yahoo e-mail address, would i have to make any changes to my account to get this working ?? its only a standard free e-mail account.

Sending Mail To Hotmail Using The Mail() Function
I have been doing some research into how to send mail to a Hotmail address using the mail() function provided in PHP, in previous posts I may have been wrong in mentioning that you need to add your mail server to the hotmail PostMaster website using Smart Network Data Services (SNDS), after doing some research I have found that in order to send e-mail to a Hotmail address you need to add/ask your host to add an SPF record to your domain. What is SPF? Well, SPF is a protocol used to eliminate forged e-mails, much like SSL certificates help eliminate phising websites. Microsoft use the SPF record against the SenderID Framework that they have in place. How do I go about obtaining an SPF Record? Easy! use the Microsoft wizard found at: http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/safety/content/technologies/senderid/wizard/ to generate a unique SPF record for your domain, then add it to your DNS server, or ask your web host to do this. I manage my own DNS server, how do I add an SPF record to a domain? To begin, open the DNS MMC from the Administrative Tools menu of your Windows Server 2003 system. Next, find the domain that will host the SPF DNS lookup record. Highlight the folder for the domain, and select Other New Records from the Action menu. You can also access this menu by right-clicking the domain folder. The resource Record Type dialog box will be displayed. From the Select a Resource Record Type area of the screen, scroll down the list and select Text (TXT) from the list. Click Create Record. This will bring up the New Resource Record dialog box to appear. This is where you paste the SPF record generated by the above website ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope this helps, I have tried it myself and e-mails went straight to my inbox (not junk mail). Would also appreciate feedback if this works for other providers such as Yahoo! etc as I have not tried it with them Give me your feedback on how it works for you, also if it works possibly make this thread sticky as I'm sure it will resolve many problems for people out there who are denying access to people who have public email addresses.

Mail() Function Doesn't Seem To Be Sending MAIL FROM: Properly
I'm trying to send an email using the mail() function. I've carefully made use of the ini_set(SMTP, "mail.my.server") function to set my SMTP server and also to set my From: address. I'm still getting a "Relaying not explicitly allowed: fakeemail@fakedomain.com" response from the server however, when I try and set a recipient who is outside of my own domain. This makes my think that the From: address is somehow not getting sent to my server properly or that I'm pointing at the wrong server. The confounding thing is that it was working for a while and I don't think I changed anything and it just stopped. I'm running these PHP pages for a client off of one of those cheap hosting services, I think it's called 1dollarhost.com or something, although I can't remember at the moment. Has anyone else had trouble with this or found a solution?

Mail Form - Sender's E-mail Address
I am less than a newbie when it comes to PHP. I recently picked up a book and I am trying to get through. So please keep that in mind when you post a reply. I have a mail form that is working great except that when it sends me the e-mails, it does not want to put the sender's e-mail address in the "From" field of the e-mail. The book that I have simply says that there is not a foolproof way to fix this. I say, that is why I bought the book, but it still doesn't explain it. If you know a workaround for this little issue I would appreciate your help.
