Hello,
I am working on a PHP script for an e-commerce site that mails out calling
card pin numbers after somebody purchases them online. Turing testing I not
noticed that aol users were not receiving the messages. AOL seems to be
filtering them out without sending a bounce or anything. We tried it with
multiple aol users, and nothing I tried when using the mail function got
through, but messages sent from the server with pine and the php mail
package SquirrelMail do get through. The messages are received on every
other mail system I have tried.
I know this is more of a mail question, but I was hoping somebody here and
encountered this before and knew of a workaround. I noticed that
SquirrelMail doesn't use the mail function, they chose to write their own
SMPT package. I wonder why?
Anyway, my test scripts look like this:
<?php
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Test 1",
"This is a test",
"From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nReply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nX-Mailer: My
test mail program\nX-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nContent-Type: text/plain;
charset=\"us-ascii\"");
echo "Mail sent!";
?>
I tried playing around with different headers and nothing made any
difference. I sent them to myself and they sure look like valid email
messages to me. Does anybody else have this problem? What did you do about it?
Thanks,
Steve
