Recipe 17.3 Sending MIME Mail17.3.1 ProblemYou want to send MIME email. For example, you want to send multipart messages with both plain-text and HTML portions and have MIME-aware mail readers automatically display the correct portion. 17.3.2 SolutionUse the Mail_mime class in PEAR: require 'Mail.php';
require 'Mail/mime.php';
$to = 'adam@example.com, sklar@example.com';
$headers['From'] = 'webmaster@example.com';
$headers['Subject'] = 'New Version of PHP Released!';
// create MIME object
$mime = new Mail_mime;
// add body parts
$text = 'Text version of email';
$mime->setTXTBody($text);
$html = '<html><body>HTML version of email</body></html>';
$mime->setHTMLBody($html);
$file = '/path/to/file.png';
$mime->addAttachment($file, 'image/png');
// get MIME formatted message headers and body
$headers = $mime->headers($headers);
$body = $mime->get();
$message =& Mail::factory('mail');
$message->send($to, $headers, $body);
17.3.3 DiscussionPEAR's Mail_mime class provides an object-oriented interface to all the behind-the-scenes details involved in creating an email message that contains both text and HTML parts. The class is similar to PEAR's Mail class, but instead of defining the body as a string of text, you create a Mail_mime object and call its methods to add parts to the body: // create MIME object $mime = new Mail_mime; // add body parts $text = 'Text version of email'; $mime->setTXTBody($text); $html = '<html><body>HTML version of email</body></html>'; $mime->setHTMLBody($html); $file = '/path/to/file.txt'; $mime->addAttachment($file, 'text/plain'); // get MIME formatted message headers and body $headers = $mime->headers($headers); $body = $mime->get(); The Mail_mime::setTXTBody( ) and Mail_mime::setHTMLBody( ) methods add the plaintext and HTML body parts, respectively. Here, we pass in variables, but you can also pass a filename for Mail_mime to read. To use this option, pass true as the second parameter: $text = '/path/to/email.txt'; $mime->setTXTBody($text, true); To add an attachment to the message, such as a graphic or an archive, call Mail_mime::addAttachment( ) : $file = '/path/to/file.png'; $mime->addAttachment($file,'image/png'); Pass the function to the location to the file and its MIME type. Once the message is complete, do the final preparation and send it out: // get MIME formatted message headers and body
$headers = $mime->headers($headers);
$body = $mime->get( );
$message =& Mail::factory('mail');
$message->send($to, $headers, $body);
First, you have the Mail_mime object provide properly formatted headers and body. You then use the parent Mail class to format the message and send it out with Mail_mime::send( ) . 17.3.4 See AlsoSection 17.2 for sending regular email; Section 17.4 for more on retrieving mail; the PEAR Mail_Mime class at http://pear.php.net/package-info.php?package=Mail_Mime.
