Mailing

Anyone know how to send e-mail using PHP, that I can be sure that every
e-mail user will get it ?
Now I'm using mail ( ) function and some people can't get this mails,
because of security settings of their post system.

My PHP server is based on FreeBSD, and Apache. My post server is sendmail.

Thanks for any help.

as you said, settings on thier systems.

if you cant send a simple "hi" email with mail() then they are screwed, not
your fault

Have you tried setting the headers when doing it with mail()

There are some things you can do to help make sure your mail gets through.
Though nothing is 100%.

Go here:
http://www.spamassassin.org/tests.html

And try to make sure your emails don't match the rules listed.

Of special note:
Make sure you set the FROM header to a valid email address
Set your X-Mailer name to a common email program (like Outlook or Mozilla or
something).

You might also want to check some of the blacklists to make sure your IP block
is not listed.

Regards,
Shawn
