PHP send email

PHP Send Email

PHP allows you to send emails directly from scripts.

PHP mail() function

PHP mail() function is used to send an email from a script.

Syntax

mail(to,subject,message,headers,parameters)

Note: PHP requires an installed and running mail system to run the mail function (such as: sendmail, postfix, qmail, etc.). The program used is defined through configuration settings in the php.ini file. Read more in our PHP Mail Reference Manual .

PHP Simple E-Mail

The easiest way to send an email via PHP is to send a text email.

In the following example, we first declare the variables ($to, $subject, $message, $from, $headers), and then we use these variables in the mail() function to send an E -mail:

<?php
$to = "someone@example.com";         // 邮件接收者
$subject = "参数邮件";                // 邮件标题
$message = "Hello! 这是邮件的内容。";  // 邮件正文
$from = "someonelse@example.com";   // 邮件发送者
$headers = "From:" . $from;         // 头部信息设置
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
echo "邮件已发送";
?>

PHP Mail Form

With PHP, you can create a feedback form on your site. The following example sends a text message to the specified e-mail address:

<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title> php中文网(php.cn)</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['email'])) { // 如果接收到邮箱参数则发送邮件
         // 发送邮件
         $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
         $subject = $_REQUEST['subject'] ;
         $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
         mail("someone@example.com", $subject,
         $message, "From:" . $email);
         echo "邮件发送成功";
} else { // 如果没有邮箱参数则显示表单
         echo "<form method='post' action='mailform.php'>
         Email: <input name='email' type='text'><br>
         Subject: <input name='subject' type='text'><br>
         Message:<br>
         <textarea name='message' rows='15' cols='40'>
         </textarea><br>
         <input type='submit'>
         </form>";
}
?>
</body>
</html>

Explanation of the example:

· First, check whether the email input box is filled in

· If Unable to fill in (for example, when the page is accessed for the first time), output the html form

· If you are filled in (after the form is filled in), send an email from the form

· After pressing the submit button, the page reloads, and you can see that the email input is reset, and a message that the email is sent successfully is displayed

Note: This simple e-mail is not safe, and will be discussed in the next chapter of this tutorial , you'll read more about the security risks in email scripts, and we'll show you how to validate user input to make it more secure.
