The mail function needs a minimum of 3 parameters.

To, Subject and Message are required, Additional headers and Parameters are optional, although the From header is suggested to avoid becoming Spam.

 

$to      = 'nobody@example.com';
$subject = 'the subject';
$message = 'hello';
$headers = 'From: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" .
   'Reply-To: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" .
   'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

Thanks Dear

This was successful

But have TWO problems:

 

 

1. When I go to this page, an email is automatically sent to my inbox.

2. I write the email address in ?Email? box, but it not appears in the email received, it just says ?From: "$_POST@yahoo.com" <$_POST@yahoo.com>".

3. Is sending emails direct to inbox is safe.

 

Please check http://www.fazlionline.com/school/send_email_01.php again

Thanks

1. When I go to this page, an email is automatically sent to my inbox.

here i would use the conditional statement after you validate all the user input, for example:

 

if($_POST['button']){

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

}

 

this way it only sends the message when you push the send button

 

2. I write the email address in ?Email? box, but it not appears in the email received, it just says ?From: "$_POST@yahoo.com" <$_POST@yahoo.com>".

 

and here what i would do is put the

elements into the html. such as

and then assign the user input in email the the variable $email like this

 

 

$email=$_POST['email'];

 

$to = 'nobody@example.com';

$subject = 'the subject';

$message = 'hello';

$headers = "From: $email" . "\r\n" .

'Reply-To: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" .

'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

I made the changes as you told, but it still give error.

At this time, no email is sent to my inbox.

 

My new code is:

 

<?php

if($_POST['button']){
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}

$email=$_POST['email'];

$to      = $_POST['email'];
$subject = $_POST['name'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$headers = "From: $email" . "\r\n" .
   'Reply-To: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" .
   'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

?>

 

The error I receive is:

 

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 503 Bad sequence of commands. You must specify the recipients of a message before you can send it in E:\inetpub\vhosts\fazlionline.com\httpdocs\school\send_email_01.php on line 4

 

What is the solution?
