PHP Mail

[Viowatch]

hey,

Does anyone know the code for php that sends email...sort of like a formmail?

I tried some codes but they don't work, it just errors

there's two functions you could use:

bool mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string additional_headers [, string additional_parameters]] )

bool imap_mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string additional_headers [, string cc [, string bcc [, string rpath]]]] )

just remember you gotta setup the smtp settings in php.ini

If you need to send out lots of messages, you should check out the PEAR Mail_Queue class..

Are you wanting a contact form on your site or something?

You can create quick and dirty PHP scripts to send you mail from a form, using the PHP Formmail Generator (search google for that). Of course, this assumes mail is configured correctly as outlined above by others.
