Hi,

I am trying to send mail using email class library, but I did not get the mail 1 hour is passed.

Here is the code I m using in controller
loading library.........

$this->load->library('email');
Function to send mail

$config['protocol'] = 'sendmail';
$this->email->initialize($config);
$this->email->from('someaddr');
$this->email->to('myaddress');
$this->email->cc('someaddr');

$this->email->subject('subject');
$this->email->message('message');

$this->email->send();

Here is the email.php file in config folder


$config['protocol'] = 'sendmail';
$config['mailpath'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
$config['charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';
$config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;
$config['mailtpye'] = 'html';

Please help me in this issue.

Hi!

Please use [co.de] tags for your script next time. Back to the problem - I'm using PHPMailer and works great.

Hi,
I had tried php mail function but it wasn't working too. I found somewhere that its good to send mail using codeigniter's email library. Please someone help. Is anything wrong in my code as I am not receiving mails.

Thanks

Hi!

Try PHPMailer, because I have no other solution for you. If it doesn't work, it will be problem of server.

I've attached phpMailer library to this post, copy it to your system/libraries. Example of use:

Code:

$this->load->library('phpmailer');

$this->phpmailer->WordWrap = 50;
$this->phpmailer->IsHTML(true);
$this->phpmailer->Charset = "utf-8";
                
$this->phpmailer->From = 'your_address@something.com';
                
$this->phpmailer->AddAddress('subject_address@something.com');
                
$this->phpmailer->Subject = 'some subject';
$this->phpmailer->Body    = 'some text as body';
$this->phpmailer->AltBody = 'some text for alternative clients';
                
$this->phpmailer->Send();

If you want to do something advanced, take a look into docs:
http://phpmailer.worxware.com/

Checkout Postmark, and the Postmark CodeIgniter library. http://www.postmarkapp.com, it should help quite abit, as you won't need to send email from your server anymore.
