After trying to read various articles on sending emails with attachments in PHP (I am use to ASP with VBScript), I wrote the code below. Unfortunately, it does not work at all. Not only does it not send the email with the attachment, the email doesn't seem to send at all, even though my script says that it did send. Where have I gone wrong? I'm not using a form to upload a file. This is a static script.
<?php
$EmailTo = "Me@here.com";
$EmailFrom = "You@There.com";
$EmailSubject = "The Email Subject";
$MailBoundary = md5(uniqid(time()));
$Headers = "To: ". $EmailTo . "\r\n";
$Headers .= "From: ". $EmailFrom . "\r\n";
$Headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$Headers .= "Content-type: multipart/mixed;boundary=\"$MailBoundary \"";
$Headers .= "\r\n\r\n";
$Headers .= "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.";
$Headers .= "\r\n\r\n";
$FileAttachment = "AttachedFile.pdf";
$File = fopen($FileAttachment, "r");
$FileData = fread($File, filesize($FileAttachment));
$FileData = chunk_split(base64_encode($FileData));
$FileName = basename($FileAttachment);
$EmailBody = "--$MailBoundary\r\n";
$EmailBody .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$EmailBody .= "Content-transfer-encoding: 8bit\r\n\r\n";
$EmailBody .= "<html>" . chr(13) .
"<head>" . chr(13) .
"<style>" . chr(13) .
".breg {font-family:arial;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;padding:5px;}" . chr(13) .
"</style>" . chr(13) .
"</head>" . chr(13) .
"<body>" . chr(13) .
"<div class=" . chr(34) . "breg" . chr(34) . ">" . chr(13) .
"The message text body goes here" . chr(13) .
"</div>" . chr(13) .
"</body>" . chr(13) .
"</html>";
$EmailBody .= "--$MailBoundary\r\n";
$EmailBody .= "Content-type: " . mime_content_type($File) . "; name=$FileName\r\n";
$EmailBody .= "Content-transfer-encoding:base64\r\n\r\n";
$EmailBody .= $FileData. "\r\n\r\n";
$EmailBody .= " --$MailBoundary--";
if (mail($EmailTo, $EmailSubject, $EmailBody, $Headers))
{
echo "Email to " . $EmailTo . " has been sent" . chr(13) . "<br />" . chr(13);
}
else
{
echo "<b>Email to " . $EmailTo . " was not sent</b>" . chr(13) . "<br />" . chr(13);
}
?>
i think you have an error in your email content, generate your email content with imap_mail_compose function:
