Hi List,
Good morning. Hope all are well on this Saturday.
I am in need of a little assistance. I am creating an HTML email.
I have created it successfully already, so I know the code works for
the HTML part.
My question is about the headers of the message.
Here is my code at the end before the message is sent off.
//other code that sets up $html and $text
if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3) == 'WIN')) {
$eol="\r\n";
} else if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3) == 'MAC')) {
$eol="\r";
} else {
$eol="\n";
}
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'From: '.$from.$eol;
$headers .= 'To: "'. $username .'" <' . $email . '>'.$eol;
//$headers .= 'Cc: ' . $from;
//$headers .= 'BCc: ' . $from;
$headers .= 'Reply-To: ' . $from .$eol;
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion().$eol;
$headers .= 'X-sender: <' . $from . '>'.$eol;
$headers .= 'X-receiver: <' . $email . '>'.$eol;
$headers .= 'Message-ID: <'.$MessageID.'@'.$host.'>'.$eol;
$headers .= 'Date: '.$time.$eol;
// Additional headers
$headers .= 'X-Priority: 1'.$eol;
$headers .= 'X-MSMail-Priority: High'.$eol;
$headers .= 'X-MimeOLE: Generated By Design Drumm - MultiPart/Alt E-
Mail'.$eol;
$headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . $eol;
$headers .= 'Content-type: multipart/alternative';
$headers .= 'boundary="'.$boundary.'"' . $eol.$eol;
// Make sure there are no bare linefeeds in the headers
//$headers = preg_replace('#(?<!\r)\n#si', "\r\n", $headers); //I
found this code. Can anyone tell me if it works.
$message = '--'.$boundary.$eol;
$message .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset="UTF-8"'.$eol;
$message .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit'.$eol.$eol;
$message .= $html.$eol.$eol;
$message .= '--'.$boundary.$eol;
$message .= 'Content-type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"'.$eol;
$message .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable'.$eol.$eol;
$message .= $text.$eol.$eol;
$message .= '--'.$boundary.'--'.$eol.$eol;
return mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
My question is what order should the headers be in from top to bottom
that I have to work properly?
Currently it does not display the HTML on MAC but it does in Hotmail.
MAC mail is grabbing the text version.
So my susspicion is that the headers are just wrong.
It has worked on MAC mail before I tried the MIME boundaries.
