fsockopen & mailings...

[The_Chancer]

Using fsockopen to mail out via an exchange server, but I want to make the mails HTML - any ideas how ?

Incidentally, when using this method, you need to use

fgets($handle, 100)

to get the returned lines from the server - else it won't send mail. Use telnet 25 and do the process manually to determine how many you need to ensure the mail is sent..

Update:

using:
fputs($handle, "Header:MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n");
fputs($handle, "Header:Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n");

Doesn't work either - nor can I set the date... any clues ?

So simple - just don't include the "headers:" bit - just the Mime type and COntent....
