Using the PHP mail function to deliver a mailbox

When we normally use PHP to send mail, we don't always need to use a powerful tool class like Phpmailer, and find a nice PHP mail encapsulation function on the Internet that solves several problems that are frequently encountered using the mail () function
1. How to send an HTML format message.
2. The subject of the mail is filled with garbled Chinese.
3. The recipient, in addition to filling in the recipient's mail, also has to fill in the name, but also in Chinese.
4. The sender should fill in the name of the website, so that when the person received the message is not bare display mail address. UTF-8 Code Conversion of email address in Chinese

function Format_mail_address ($address) {
if (Preg_match ("| |", $address, $matches)) {
$name = mb_substr ($address, 0, Strpos ($address, '
How to use the function:
Html_mail (
"Electric Business Salon",
Array
"User A",
"User B"),
"This is a test email,"
”
The point to note is that when a recipient is an array, one of the recipients viewing the message sees the e-mail address of all other recipients. If you want to separate to send (each other can not see their own e-mail address), you may use the loop to send one by one. You can use the encrypted cc to implement the e-mail address where the encrypted CC is hidden.

<?php
$to = $mailtoname. "<". $mailtomail. "-->";
$mailsubject = "Mail Test";
$mailheader = "x-priority:5n";
$mailheader. = "From:". " Sales Teamn ";
$mailheader. = "X-sender:". Support@ec-shalom.comn ";
$mailheader. = "Return-path:". Support@ec-shalom.comn ";
normal CC Mail
$mailheader. = "Cc:". $MAILCC. " n ";
Encrypt cc
$mailheader. = "BCC:". $MAILBCC. " n ";
$mailbody = "Shang Sharong-mail () function to send mail";
$result = Mail ($to, $mailsubject, $mailbody, $mailheader);
echo "

Mail sent to "." $to. " ” “; Echo $mailsubject. ” “; Echo $mailbody. ” “; Echo $mailheader. ” “; if ($result) {echo

<strong></strong><strong>email sent Successfully!</strong>

<strong> "; }else{echo "</strong>

<strong></strong><strong>email could not to be sent. </strong>

<strong> "; }?&gt;</strong>

The General tab mainly sets the IP address, click the IP address dropdown to select "127.0.0.1" to point to the IP address of the local computer, and the other items use the default. If you are a LAN access, have a fixed IP address, then the IP address should choose the appropriate address

Access tab, set access permissions. Click "Authentication", select Anonymous access, which means that any user can send, the other two do not have to choose, click "Disconnect" in connection control and section limit, select "except the list below" to indicate that access to all users can be allowed.

On the Mailings tab, set the message transfer conditions and restrictions, and the four options, "limit message size to", can use default values and need not be changed;

"Send a copy of an unsent report to" returns the sender with an unsuccessful message, stating the reason for the failure; The Badmail directory setting does not send a location where successful messages are stored.

The transport option sets the message delivery time, where you do not need to modify it, use the default value, and the LDAP routing option to specify the directory server identity and properties used by the server, and do not need to start it here.
