I\'ve been able to send an email using SMTP in PHP, but when I try to change the Content Type to HTML, the email doesn\'t get delivered. This is the code I\'m trying to use:

Answer 1

I did some research, then I made my own code to send mail with HTML formatting using SMTP authentication. See here:

  
    Name:
    '.$senderName.'
  
  
    Company:
    '.$_GET['txtCompany'].'
  
  
    Phone:
    '.$_GET['txtphone'].'
  
  
    E-mail:
    '.$senderEmail.'
  
  
    URL:
    '.$url.'
  
  
    Massage:
    '.$msg.'
  
';

 $from = $senderName."<".$senderEmail.">";
 $to = "Contact ManagerHR";
 $subject = "Hi!";
 $host = "XXX.host.com";
 $username = "username@host.com";
 $password = "*****";
 /* MIME-Version should be "1.0rn" and Content-Type should be "text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1rn" to send an HTML Email */
$headers = array ('MIME-Version' => '1.0rn',
        'Content-Type' => "text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1rn",
        'From' => $from,
        'To' => $to,
        'Subject' => $subject
     );
$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp',
   array ('host' => $host,
     'auth' => true,
     'username' => $username,
     'password' => $password));
$mail = $smtp->send($to, $headers, $body);
 if (PEAR::isError($mail)) {
   echo("
" . $mail->getMessage() . "
");
  } else {
      header('Location: '.$url); // redirect to url where from inquiry made
   //echo("
Message successfully sent!
");
  }
 ?>
