Contact Form: Mail with Attachments

Under Windows there is a bug in php mail function.
See this link php bug.
There can be constructed a workaround to this problem.
Also you should make sure you correctly configured your smtp server inside php.ini.
I will post in the shortest time possible a resolution to this problem.

Hi Limou,

Sorry for not answering to you sooner, but for some reason i didn’t receive the notice mail about your new comment.
You don’t need xml version 3, you only need v1.0 and i think you won’t have any problems regarding this.

Best regards,
Ovidiu

Hi,

This is very simple:

Find the line
mail($TO, $SUBJECT, $message, “From:”.$yourname.” <”.$yourmail.”> MIME-Version:1.0”. $content_type)

and change it to
mail($TO, $SUBJECT, $message, “From:”.$yourname.” <”.$yourmail.”> Reply-To: “.$yourmail.” Return-Path: “.$yourmail.” MIME-Version:1.0”. $content_type)

Also find this line
mail($yourmail, $CONFIRMATION_SUBJECT, $CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE, “From:”.$CONFIRMATION_NAME.” <”.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.”> MIME-Version:1.0”.$content_type);

and change it to
mail($yourmail, $CONFIRMATION_SUBJECT, $CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE, “From:”.$CONFIRMATION_NAME.” <”.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.”> Reply-To: “.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.” Return-Path: “.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.” MIME-Version:1.0”.$content_type);

That’s it.
Let me know how it works.

Wow, it looks like CRLF characters are removed from comments.
Here is how the new lines should look.

Find the line

mail($TO, $SUBJECT, $message, "From:".$yourname." <".$yourmail.">
MIME-Version:1.0
". $content_type) 

mail($TO, $SUBJECT, $message, "From:".$yourname." <".$yourmail.">
Reply-To: ".$yourmail."
Return-Path: ".$yourmail."
MIME-Version:1.0
". $content_type) 

mail($yourmail, $CONFIRMATION_SUBJECT, $CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE, "From:".$CONFIRMATION_NAME." <".$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.">
MIME-Version:1.0
".$content_type); 

mail($yourmail, $CONFIRMATION_SUBJECT, $CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE, "From:".$CONFIRMATION_NAME." <".$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.">
Reply-To: ".$CONFIRMATION_MAIL."
Return-Path: ".$CONFIRMATION_MAIL."
MIME-Version:1.0
".$content_type); 

Hi there. I bought your Mail with attachments v1.2 component and Its not working for me. The problem it its not sending emails so I need to know what version of .php it this componet written in?

Hi again pinosh,

Thanks for your answer,

if I understand correctly the end of sendmail.php should read:

if(mail($TO, $SUBJECT, $message, “From:”.$yourname.” <”.$yourmail.”>/nReply-To: “.$yourmail.”/nReturn-Path: “.$yourmail.”/nMIME-Version:1.0
“. $content_type)) { echo “<status message=‘sent’ />”; mail($yourmail, $CONFIRMATION_SUBJECT, $CONFIRMATION_MESSAGE, “From:”.$CONFIRMATION_NAME.” <”.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.”>/nReply-To: “.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.”/nReturn-Path: “.$CONFIRMATION_MAIL.”/nMIME-Version:1.0
“.$content_type); } else { echo “<status message=‘error’ />”; }
?>

?

hi pinosh !

Thank you for the answer… but it still doesn’t work !
i had an answer from my server webmasters.

They send me this as exemple :

<?php
$headers =‘From: “test oleane”<[email protected]>’.” ”;
$headers .=‘Return-Path: [email protected]’.” ”;
$headers .=‘Reply-To: [email protected]’.” ”;
$headers .=‘Content-Type: text/plain; charset=“iso-8859-1”’.” ”;
$headers .=‘Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit’;

if(mail(‘[email protected]’, ‘test formulaire’, ‘message avec
enveloppe complete’, $headers))
{
echo ‘Le message a bien ?t? envoy?’;
}
else
{
echo ‘Le message n‘a pu ?tre envoy?’;
}
?>

Does-it help you to solve the problem ?

Hi,
I don't think that's going to work either.

\r\n it is CRLF which is "backslash"r"backslash"n
These characters must separate the headers.

Just like in this comment here http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php#88302
