Detailed Description

Generate and send multipart emails.

This class is just a small wrapper around the PEAR packages Mail and Mail/mime.

Class to easily generate multipart emails. It supports embedded images within the email. It can be used to send a text with possible attachments.

The encoding of the message is utf-8 by default.

Usage example: $email = new Pluf_Mail('from_email.com', 'to_email.com', 'Subject of the message'); $img_id = $email->addAttachment('/var/www/html/img/pic.jpg', 'image/jpg'); $email->addTextMessage('Hello world!'); $email->addHtmlMessage('<html><body>Hello world!</body></html>'); $email->sendMail();

The configuration parameters are the one for Mail::factory with the 'mail_' prefix not to conflict with the other parameters.

'mail_backend' - 'mail', 'smtp' or 'sendmail' (default 'mail').

List of parameter for the backends:

If safe mode is disabled, an array with all the 'mail_*' parameters excluding 'mail_backend' will be passed as the fifth argument to the PHP mail() function. The elements will be joined as a space-delimited string.

sendmail backend ------------------

'mail_username' - The username to use for SMTP authentication. 'mail_password' - The password to use for SMTP authentication. 'mail_localhost' - The value to give when sending EHLO or HELO. Default is localhost 'mail_timeout' - The SMTP connection timeout. Default is NULL (no timeout) 'mail_verp' - Whether to use VERP or not. Default is FALSE 'mail_debug' - Whether to enable SMTP debug mode or not.
