I know there are a few similar questions to this but I just can't get it working.
Ok, I have a list of emails grabbed from my database in a variable called $emailList. I can get my code to send an email from a form if I put the variable in the $to
section but I cannot get it to work with bcc. I've even added an email to the $to
incase it was that but it doesn't make a difference.
Here is my code.
$to = "[email protected]"; $subject .= "".$emailSubject.""; $headers .= 'Bcc: $emailList'; $headers = "From: [email protected]\r\n" . "X-Mailer: php"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; $message = '<html><body>'; $message .= 'THE MESSAGE FROM THE FORM'; if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) { $sent = "Your email was sent!"; } else { $sent = ("Error sending email."); }
I've tried both codes:
$headers .= 'Bcc: $emailList';
and
$headers .= 'Bcc: '.$emailList.';
It's not that the emails aren't separated because they are. I know they are because it works if I put $emailList
in the $to
section.
I Should add, ignore the $message
bits and the HTML stuff. I've not provided all of that so that is why it's missing from this code.
You have $headers .= '...';
followed by $headers = '...';
; the second line is overwriting the first.
Just put the $headers .= "Bcc: $emailList\r\n";
say after the Content-type
line and it should be fine.
On a side note, the To
is generally required; mail servers might mark your message as spam otherwise.
$headers = "From: [email protected]\r\n" . "X-Mailer: php\r\n"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; $headers .= "Bcc: $emailList\r\n";
You were setting BCC but then overwriting the variable with the FROM
$to = "[email protected]"; $subject .= "".$emailSubject.""; $headers .= "Bcc: ".$emailList."\r\n"; $headers .= "From: [email protected]\r\n" . "X-Mailer: php"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; $message = '<html><body>'; $message .= 'THE MESSAGE FROM THE FORM'; if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) { $sent = "Your email was sent!"; } else { $sent = ("Error sending email."); }
