PHP Simple e-mailThe easiest way to send e-mail through 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 message:
<?php $to = "someone@example.com"; $subject = "Test mail"; $message = "hello! This is a simple e-mail message. $from = "someonelse@example.com"; $headers = "From: $from"; Mail ($to, $subject, $message, $headers); echo "Mail Sent." ?> PHP Mail FormWith PHP, you can make a feedback form on your site. The following example sends a text message to the specified e-mail address:
<html> <body> <?php if (isset ($_request[' email '))//if "Email" is filled out, send email {//send Email $ email = $_request[' email ']; $subject = $_request[' subject ']; $message = $_request[' message ']; Mail ("someone@example.com", "Subject: $subject", $message, "from: $email"); echo "Thank you as using our mail form"; else//if "Email" is not filled out, display the form {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= ' cols= ' > </textarea><br/> <input ' Submit '/ > </form> "; ?> </body> </html> Example explanation: First, check whether the message input box is filled in if it is not filled out (for example, when the page is first accessed), the output HTML form if it has been filled in (after the form is filled in), send the message from the form when you click the Submit button, Reload the page to display the message that the message was sent successfullyStart building with 50+ products and up to 12 months usage for Elastic Compute Service
