% Hi People

Hi!


%
% I'm using the mail() function in order to send HTML formated e-mails to my
% customers in an automatic process, witha aPHP program. Some times the

OK. HTML mail is evil, but continue on ;-)


% e-mails where produced with a sort of non intelligible caracters and the
% headers were exposed. Even if i repeat the same e-mail some times where
% produced ok and the next where wrong.

Can you give an example of such a failed email, and perhaps your script?
We may need to see all of the relevant data, such as the message template
and the user info for some that worked and -- more importantly -- some
that didn't, but just the first bits would give us a start.


%
% I have my site hoted in detailhosting.com, Versión P.H.P 4.3.2, Mysql
% 4.0.15 , Apache 1.3.27 , Linux Kernel Version 2.4.21-grsec.
%
% The guys of detailhosting don´t know what to do.

Well, without more info neither do we :-)


%
% Please help me. I don´t know what to do...

Start by giving us more information.


%
% Thanks in advace.

Your emails are an utter confusion.

first, you original message (which I had to go digging for, to
recall what your problem was) was posted in another thread.

Second, this email content is quoting the wrong person with your
text inside his quote.

Third, Your attachments are all messed-up. I can't make heads or
tails as to what is what. Besides that attachements are not suppose
to be posted to the list.

Fourth, I finally make something out of it and your code is very
hard to read, you have commented out code here and there.

Fifth, Your email attatchments are way to complicated to decipher,
you have special headers and the like inside of them, and is very
difficult to determain exactly what the problem is.

Try to make things simple and go from there. I would also
suggest using a class of some sort that works already, such as was
suggested ealier (phpmailer.)
