9 Full Featured Email Transfer Class for PHP
10 ==========================================

14 We have removed the /phpdoc from the downloads. All documentation is now on
15 the http://phpmailer.codeworxtech.com website.
17 The phpunit.php has been updated to support PHP5.
19 For all other changes and notes, please see the changelog.

23 Version 2.2 (July 15 2008)
27 Version 2.1 (June 04 2008)
29 With this release, we are announcing that the development of PHPMailer for PHP5
30 will be our focus from this date on. We have implemented all the enhancements
31 and fixes from the latest release of PHPMailer for PHP4.
33 Far more important, though, is that this release of PHPMailer (v2.1) is
34 fully tested with E_STRICT error checking enabled.
36 ** NOTE: WE HAVE A NEW LANGUAGE VARIABLE FOR DIGITALLY SIGNED S/MIME EMAILS.
37 IF YOU CAN HELP WITH LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH AND SPANISH, IT WOULD BE
40 We have now added S/MIME functionality (ability to digitally sign emails).
41 BIG THANKS TO "sergiocambra" for posting this patch back in November 2007.
42 The "Signed Emails" functionality adds the Sign method to pass the private key
43 filename and the password to read it, and then email will be sent with
44 content-type multipart/signed and with the digital signature attached.
46 A quick note on E_STRICT:
48 - In about half the test environments the development version was subjected
49 to, an error was thrown for the date() functions (used at line 1565 and 1569).
50 This is NOT a PHPMailer error, it is the result of an incorrectly configured
51 PHP5 installation. The fix is to modify your 'php.ini' file and include the
52 date.timezone = America/New York
53 directive, (for your own server timezone)
54 - If you do get this error, and are unable to access your php.ini file, there is
55 a workaround. In your PHP script, add
56 date_default_timezone_set('America/Toronto');
59 $myVar = date_default_timezone_get();
60 as a test, it will throw an error.
62 We have also included more example files to show the use of "sendmail", "mail()",
65 We are also looking for more programmers to join the volunteer development team.
66 If you have an interest in this, please let us know.
71 Version 2.1.0beta1 & beta2
73 please note, this is BETA software
74 ** DO NOT USE THIS IN PRODUCTION OR LIVE PROJECTS
75 INTENDED STRICTLY FOR TESTING
79 As of November 2007, PHPMailer has a new project team headed by industry
80 veteran Andy Prevost (codeworxtech). The first release in more than two
81 years will focus on fixes, adding ease-of-use enhancements, provide
82 basic compatibility with PHP4 and PHP5 using PHP5 backwards compatibility
83 features. A new release is planned before year-end 2007 that will provide
84 full compatiblity with PHP4 and PHP5, as well as more bug fixes.
86 We are looking for project developers to assist in restoring PHPMailer to
87 its leadership position. Our goals are to simplify use of PHPMailer, provide
88 good documentation and examples, and retain backward compatibility to level

102 - Send emails with multiple TOs, CCs, BCCs and REPLY-TOs
103 - Redundant SMTP servers
104 - Multipart/alternative emails for mail clients that do not read HTML email
105 - Support for 8bit, base64, binary, and quoted-printable encoding
106 - Uses the same methods as the very popular AspEmail active server (COM) component
107 - SMTP authentication
108 - Native language support
109 - Word wrap, and more!
111 Why you might need it:
113 Many PHP developers utilize email in their code. The only PHP function
114 that supports this is the mail() function. However, it does not expose
115 any of the popular features that many email clients use nowadays like
116 HTML-based emails and attachments. There are two proprietary
117 development tools out there that have all the functionality built into
118 easy to use classes: AspEmail(tm) and AspMail. Both of these
119 programs are COM components only available on Windows. They are also a
120 little pricey for smaller projects.
122 Since I do Linux development I
\92ve missed these tools for my PHP coding.
123 So I built a version myself that implements the same methods (object
124 calls) that the Windows-based components do. It is open source and the
125 LGPL license allows you to place the class in your proprietary PHP
131 Copy class.phpmailer.php into your php.ini include_path. If you are
132 using the SMTP mailer then place class.smtp.php in your path as well.
133 In the language directory you will find several files like
134 phpmailer.lang-en.php. If you look right before the .php extension
135 that there are two letters. These represent the language type of the
136 translation file. For instance "en" is the English file and "br" is
137 the Portuguese file. Chose the file that best fits with your language
138 and place it in the PHP include path. If your language is English
139 then you have nothing more to do. If it is a different language then
140 you must point PHPMailer to the correct translation. To do this, call
141 the PHPMailer SetLanguage method like so:
143 // To load the Portuguese version
144 $mail->SetLanguage("br", "/optional/path/to/language/directory/");
146 That's it. You should now be ready to use PHPMailer!
152 require("class.phpmailer.php");
154 $mail = new PHPMailer();
156 $mail->IsSMTP(); // set mailer to use SMTP
157 $mail->Host = "smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com"; // specify main and backup server
158 $mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
159 $mail->Username = "jswan"; // SMTP username
160 $mail->Password = "secret"; // SMTP password
162 $mail->From = "from@example.com";
163 $mail->FromName = "Mailer";
164 $mail->AddAddress("josh@example.net", "Josh Adams");
165 $mail->AddAddress("ellen@example.com"); // name is optional
166 $mail->AddReplyTo("info@example.com", "Information");
168 $mail->WordWrap = 50; // set word wrap to 50 characters
169 $mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz"); // add attachments
170 $mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg"); // optional name
171 $mail->IsHTML(true); // set email format to HTML
173 $mail->Subject = "Here is the subject";
174 $mail->Body = "This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>";
175 $mail->AltBody = "This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients";
179 echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
180 echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
184 echo "Message has been sent";
