note 72245 added to ref.mail

I edited the code of genius Jon (thank you!) a bit and made an easy function to send multiple attachments with one e-mail. I stripped the HTML tags for the text-version, but haven't tested that. The attachments variable of the function is a 2-dimensional array which should contain the keys "file" and "content_type". I tested it with MS Outlook. <?php function send_mail($emailaddress, $fromaddress, $emailsubject, $body, $attachments=false) { $eol="\r\n"; $mime_boundary=md5(time()); # Common Headers $headers .= 'From: MyName<'.$fromaddress.'>'.$eol; $headers .= 'Reply-To: MyName<'.$fromaddress.'>'.$eol; $headers .= 'Return-Path: MyName<'.$fromaddress.'>'.$eol; // these two to set reply address $headers .= "Message-ID: <".$now." TheSystem@".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].">".$eol; $headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP v".phpversion().$eol; // These two to help avoid spam-filters # Boundry for marking the split & Multitype Headers $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0'.$eol; $headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary=\"".$mime_boundary."\"".$eol; $msg = ""; if ($attachments !== false) { for($i=0; $i < count($attachments); $i++) { if (is_file($attachments[$i]["file"])) { # File for Attachment $file_name = substr($attachments[$i]["file"], (strrpos($attachments[$i]["file"], "/")+1)); $handle=fopen($attachments[$i]["file"], 'rb'); $f_contents=fread($handle, filesize($attachments[$i]["file"])); $f_contents=chunk_split(base64_encode($f_contents)); //Encode The Data For Transition using base64_encode(); fclose($handle); # Attachment $msg .= "--".$mime_boundary.$eol; $msg .= "Content-Type: ".$attachments[$i]["content_type"]."; name=\"".$file_name."\"".$eol; $msg .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64".$eol; $msg .= "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$file_name."\"".$eol.$eol; // !! This line needs TWO end of lines !!
