[Webmakers] Help with PHP mail function

[Patrick Marr]

We do, and our code looks like this:

 

               $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
               $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'
. "\r\n";
               $headers .= 'From: TREASURY WEBSITE
<no-reply at treasury.ri.gov>' . "\r\n";
               mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

Subject: [Webmakers] Help with PHP mail function

 

Hello everyone--

 

I've been away from PHP for quite awhile and can use some help please.

 

I have PHP script that is no longer sending email since the Enterprise
Server Group made a change to the DNS settings. Does anyone else use the
PHP MAIL() function to send email from a form?

 

I need to change set the from but can't get it to work... Bill Del Prete
suggested the DNS name (mailtran.admin.ri.gov) but that's not working
for me...

 

Here's what I had that worked prior to the change:

 

foreach ($addresses as $to){
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers,"-f from");

 

I tried to add it to the headers as so but still no joy (the handler
page does give me any errors, so the emails seem to be getting there,
the server must not be sending them because I don't have the from set
correctly):

 

 

$headers = "Content-Type: text; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";

$hearers .= "cc: <<list of emails>>;

$headers .= "from:mailtran.admin.ri.gov";   << ADDED THIS LINE TO SCRIPT
AND REMOVED -f from

 

 

 

Thanks, Steve
