a tag appears as it is in the mail.Any idea how to solve this??Pls help..
If you follow this example there's no reason it shouldn't work:
<?php include('Mail.php'); include('Mail/mime.php'); // Constructing the email $sender = "Leigh <leigh@no_spam.net>";// Your name and email address $recipient = "Leigh <leigh@no_spam.net>"; // The Recipients name and email address $subject = "Test Email";// Subject for the email $text = 'This is a text message.';// Text version of the email $html = '<html><body><p>HTML message</p></body></html>';// HTML version of the email $crlf = "\r\n"; $headers = array('From' => $sender, 'Return-Path' => $sender, 'Subject' => $subject); // Creating the Mime message $mime = new Mail_mime($crlf); // Setting the body of the email $mime->setTXTBody($text); $mime->setHTMLBody($html); $body = $mime->get(); $headers = $mime->headers($headers); // Sending the email $mail =& Mail::factory('mail'); $mail->send($recipient, $headers, $body); ?>
NOTE: in order for the above example to work one needs the Pear Mail Mime Package in addition the Pear Mail one. You can get the package here https://pear.php.net/package/Mail_Mime/download.
What do your headers look like? Here are mine:
$headers = array(
'To' => $recipients,
'From' => $adminEmail,
'Subject' => $subject,
'MIME-Version' => 1,
'Content-type' => 'text/html;charset=iso-8859-1'
);
Please note that the example posted by karim79 has a header parameter that may cause you much grief: "Return-Path" - when I included this parameter like the example it prevented me from adding a from name, only a sender email address worked.
Specifically (when I added a debug param to see what was happening) there were extra angle brackets added around the from name so it tried to send this to the smtp server:
From: <from name <[email protected]>> or
From: <"from name" <[email protected]>> when I tried using quotes.
This caused the smtp connection to quit with an error of invalid address.
Also when using the mime_mail class you need to specify the "To:" parameter in the headers or it will appear to be sent to undisclosed addresses when you receive it. So replace the Return-Path param with a To param and it will work.
