mail attachments, html and text versions

Hard_Styler

Hey All,

I have been trying to solve this for a week and have totally given up. I have searched everywhere for a solution to this.

I need to be able to attach files to an email with both Text and HTML versions.

If the recipient email software supports HTML than the text version should not be displayed.

So far I've been able to any two combinations but not all 3.

Can anybody help?

Thanks in advance!!!

i went with a mime-mail to solve that. i dont know if its the best way, but it works. here my script to send a mime mail with attached pdfs:


# split emailadress
if ($kunden->actKunde[0]['KNDK_EMAIL'] != "") {
  $emails = explode(";", $kunden->actKunde[0]['KNDK_EMAIL']);
  if(count($emails)<1) {
    print("No email adress specified.<br />");
    exit();
  }
}
else {
  print("No adress specified.<br />");
  exit();
}

# use first adress
$to = $emails[0];
# sender
$from = "me@mydomain.com";
# sender name
$fromName = "crosbystillsnash";
# reply-adress
$answerTo = "replyto@mydomain.com";

# subject
$subject = $_POST['emailSubject2'];

# path to pdfs that are attached
$angebotsdir = "here/my/pdf/that/i/want/to/attach/are/saved/";

# attachments are posted from another script (which attachments from $angebotsdir are to be attached)
$attach = $_POST['sendData'];

# not important
$angeboteOfPerson = $angebot->getAngeboteOfPerson ($_GET['actKunde']);

# boundaries of multipart-mail
$boundary1 = "----=_NextPart0001";
$boundary2 = "----=_NextPart0002";

Thanks for that,

I decided to just be lazy and disabled text versions if they added attachments.... :o

If I get time I will look at implementing something like that.
