Sending multiple CC's and BCCs with PHP PEAR MAIL
I have a project that I am working on at my job and I am using Pear's mailing. I need to use smtp because we need to be able to track everything from our mailserver. And users need to be able to log in before sending a company based email. We cannot use php's mail function fo this.
My problem is that I cant find any documentation on the net for sending CC and Bcc as well as sending multiple BCCs. It is very easy to do with php' mail funciton . All you do is add it to the $header variable like so
$headers .= 'Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: birthdaycheck@example.com' . "\r\n";
This is my code for the php function where I use PEAR
function sender_mail($email,$subject,$mailmsg, $cc, $bcc){
include("Mail.php");
/* mail setup recipients, subject etc */
//DEFAULT VALUE OF FROM
$from = "noreply@addata.net";
//GET EMAIL OF USER
$result = mysql_query("SELECT email, email_pass FROM u_perinfo WHERE user_id = '$_SESSION[uid]'")
or die("There was an error when grabbing your email information");
if(mysql_num_rows($result) > 0){
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
if($row[0] != ''){
$from = $row[0];
}
$email_pass = $row[1];
}
$recipients = "$email";
$headers["From"] = "$from";
$headers["To"] = "$email";
$headers["Subject"] = $subject;
$headers["Cc"] = "$cc"; //Line added by Me to see if it works
$headers["Bcc"] = "$bcc"; //Line added by Me to see if it works
//$mailmsg = "Welcome to Addatareference.com! \r\n\r\nBelow is your unique login information. \r\n\r\n(Please do not share your login in开发者_如何学Pythonformation.)$accountinfo";
/* SMTP server name, port, user/passwd */
$smtpinfo["host"] = "smtp.emailsrvr.com";
$smtpinfo["port"] = "25";
$smtpinfo["auth"] = true;
$smtpinfo["username"] = "$from";
$smtpinfo["password"] = "$email_pass";
/* Create the mail object using the Mail::factory method */
$mail_object =& Mail::factory("smtp", $smtpinfo);
/* Ok send mail */
$mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $mailmsg);
}
I have been trying to find a solution to this with no real info coming back my way. If someone could help me out with this I would be greatly appreciated.
There is a problem with Bcc though when using the PEAR Mail function: Thunderbird displays the Bcc header, so the recipient is not hidden, which is the whole point of Bcc. It is also displayed in the To: header list (since you have to include the Bcc list in recipients).
Edit: SOLVED - I found from another site that the solution is just to include the Bcc list in the $recipients, and not in any of the headers. It works!
Thus:
$bcc = "foo@example.com";
$to = "bar@example.com";
$headers = array(..other stuff.., 'To' => $to, ..rest of header stuff); // No Bcc header!
$recipients = $to.", ".$bcc;
$mail = $smtp->send($recipients, $headers, $message);
Edit #2: Acknowledging my source - http://raamdev.com/2008/adding-cc-recipients-with-pear-mail/
Have you tried to add multiple addresses "," separated?
$headers['Cc'] = 'cc@example.com, bb@example.com, dd@ex.com';
This might work, according to line 218 in the source.
You just need to add all to, cc, bcc in $recipients variable. Header decides where to send.
