I've got an interesting problem that I just have not been able to
figure out. I'm trying to use Mail_Mime to send multi-part/mixed
emails from a Linux server and I am having trouble getting everything
to work together correctly. I recently migrated this client from one
Linux server to another, and unfortunatley have no access to the old
server to figure out what has changed or is different between the two.
Needless to say, the email used to work perfectly on the old server,
and doesn't on the new. What's happening is that the email is not
being decoded by Outlook or Thunderbird, but looks perfectly fine when
viewed through Horde. The attachments are even being converted into
garbage. I tried using this script, just to test what was happening,
and that's when I decided it was time to see if anyone else had
experienced something similar.
The script I tested with is:
$to = 'w********@xxxxxxxx.com';
/// MAKE "HEADERS" ARRAY AND POPULATE///////////////////
$headers['From'] = 'i***@xxxxxxxxxxx.com';
$headers['Subject'] = 'Mailing Test';
//////////// CREATE MIME OBJECT //////////////////
$mime = new Mail_mime();
//////// ADD BODY PARTS ////////////////////////////
$text = 'Text Version of Email';
$mime->setTXTBody($text);
$html = '<html><body>HTML version of email</body></html>';
$mime->setHTMLBody($html);
//////// GET MIME FORMATTED BODY AND HEADERS////////////
$body = $mime->get();
$headers = $mime->headers($headers);
$message =& Mail::factory('mail');
$message->send($to, $headers, $body);
As you can see, very simple. Outlook is displaying the email as this
though:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Text Version of Email
With no hint of the rest of the email message. The full headers of the
email are as follows:
Return-Path: <xx*@xxxx.net>
Delivered-To: 1-*********@xxxxxxx.com
Received: (qmail 19972 invoked by uid 48); 21 Sep 2005 19:09:48 -0400

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing incorrectly or what
settings in the qmail/mail or php.ini I should be looking for to
correct this problem?
Thanks in advance,
George
