Php Mail() Function Doesn't Send To Pop3 Mail Address
I'm writing a registration script for een webhosting company but the mail() function i used works only for hotmail addresses and not for pop3 email accounts, it also works for other not pop3 email accounts, does any one know what i should do to make this work. I used the same method before on an other server and there it worked perfectly.

Mail() Function - Using The Mail() Function To Send Emails To Members Of A Website
I am using the mail() function to send emails to members of a website. For some reason when I include words such as "free" or "winner" the mail does not send to any of the addresses - it just seems to disappear in space. I figured this out by trial and error - once I removed those words, it worked. I am running cPanel on the server and have no problem sending emails as long as they don't use those words. It seems to be blocking certain words - ones that I assume spammers would use.

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.

Mail Function - How To Send Mail With Php.
I'm learning how to send mail with php. only thing that mystifies me a bit is I can't get NAME of sender to appear in e-mail INBOX under "from". I only see e-mail address. I'm coming from Java, with Java you can set it up so whatever user puts under "name" in the form you can grab and in e-mail INBOX under "from" you see sender's name, not e-mail address. I would like to be able to do this with php.

Change The From Address In Th Mail() Function
I have been trying to find a way to change the name of the senders email when using the mail() function. I would like it to change the senders email address to read something like "Company Name Inc". The problem is when I set the $from = "From: Company Name Inc" I get the email with the from being: Company@ourserver.comName@ourserver....@ourserver.com is there anyway I can change this? I have found that if I change it to CompanyNameInc@theCompany.com it sends the email with the from being: CompanyNameInc@theCompany.com I would really like to have it read: "Company Name Inc" period I want to remove the @whatever.com all together.

Function Will Not Send Mail!
I've created the below function to automatically send me an alert in outlook when someone completes various forms on my website. The problem though is that mail reports that I have only 1 of the 3 required parameters defined! I have no idea where this is going wrong, because as far as I can tell I have defined all 3 parameters! Can anyone spot the problem? <?PHP function alert_outlook($Type) { $Type = strtolower($Type); switch($Type) { case 'newsletter': $Subject = 'message subject one here' $Alert = "Hi, Just thought you would like to know that there has been another subscription to the newsletter! "; break; $Alert = wordwrap($Alert, 65); } //set headers etc $Recipient = "Auto Alerts<AutoAlerts@domain.com>"; $Message = " {$Alert} "; $Message .= 'Date: ' . date("l, js F Y") . ""; $Message .= 'Time: ' . date("H:i:s") . ""; $Message .= 'IP Address: ' . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . ""; $Headers = "FROM: Auto Mailer<AutoMailer@Domain.com>"; mail("$Recipient, $Subject, $Message, $Headers"); //error check if(!mail("$Recipient, $Subject, $Message, $Headers")) { return FALSE; } else { return TRUE; } } ?>

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. I tried searching this site for a similar post, but I am must not be typing the right question, 'cause I ain't finding an answer.

MAIL() Function To Send An Email When Users Register
I have created a registration page for my site, and once the information provided is validated OK, the script inserts all the data on to MYSQL and after that it sends a Welcome Email to the user. My problem is that the user has to wait sometimes few minutes, with the form on front of then while the script is sending the mail. My questions are: 1) Is there a way to "pipe/delegate" the email job to another script while freeing the form web page, as in the Process Flow: Form Completed ------(3 seconds)----> New page "welcome to the Club" --( fork another script)---(1 to 4 minutes)----> Send Welcome email to the user 2) While the email is being sent, the form page refreshed to a "Waiting Bar.GIF" and when the email is sent it refreshed to a new page like: "welcome Html Page"?

Connect To Pop3 Mail Server
I have a piece of code that connects to a mail server running on the same machine. It all works fine but it just takes an age to connect to the mail server, like 30 seconds or so. Looking at the log for the mail server, I noticed the following lines at the beginning of each request: [Date / Time] CAPA [Date / Time] -ERR Unknown Command [Date / Time] AUTH [Date / Time] -ERR Unknown Command Could this be the reason that it takes so long to connect to the mail server? And if so is it possible to suppress certain commands sent to the server if they are not required? The PHP code I use to connect is simply: $mbox = imap_open ("{mailserver:110/pop3}INBOX", "username", "password"); And then imap_close($mbox); to clean up.

PHP Read Pop3 Mail Account
I'm after a quick and easy way to read the content of a pop3 mailbox. I don't need anything fancy, just a way to list the date/sender/title, and then when selected, display the content of the message. I'd also like the mail to remain on the server to be downloaded properly into a mail client later. It doesnt even need to be capable of sending email at the moment - just reading it. It's so that a friend of mine can check her email online to find out her exam result next week while on holiday.
