Hi to all,
I have the following html mail sender code written in php. It is
working properly but my problem is, code doesn't send the text
correctly which is in the varible "$mesaj". Code sends some unreadable
text. Any help would be appreciated, Thanx all.
Note: I put the sample image of the problem in: http://www.wiliw.com/problem2.gif

Make up your mind which character set you're in?

Messages with non-ASCII characters must be sent in quoted-printable
encoding.
You may want to take a look at this class that shows how to send
messages that way. It even comes with an example of how to send a
message in Japanese, but it could be any other idiom using any other
character set: http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage

What do you mean? The class supports quoted printable encoding and
custom character sets since a long time ago.

This is not true for the body of a message, see rfc 2045 and look for
the 8bit and binary values for the content-transfer-encoding header.

How quickly they forget. ;)

You provide a _very_ comprehensive class there, Manuel.
Do you by any chance have an instruction manual for it?
;)
Not yet. I can produce a reference manual soon from the class
auto-documentation. It would for instance like in this class:
http://www.phpclasses.org/xmlwriter
It will take me a few days. Just let me know if that would be useful.
Yes, please, VERY. I told my client I'd have her HTML newsletter up
It is almost done and I will probably release it later today, but if
you are in a hurry, you should look at the example scripts supplied
with the class.

Now that things are back in context, how's it coming?

Sorry, you cannot assume that the MTA that will get the message will
support 8 bit encoded messages or else your messages may get discarded
and then you wonder why the messages were not accepted. It is better to
play safe and let MTA convert to 8 bit when it knows it can do that.

Sorry, extensive documentation is available on the site since late
Wednesday. I assummed that you were getting automatic notifications of
update of the class that goes to all subscribers that have previously
downloaded the class.

That is why you need to compose multipart/alternative to send HTML
properly because these can include both the plain text and HTML versions
that are displayed correctly depending on what your e-mail client can
display.
Every decent e-mail program can send messages this way. In PHP, you can
use the same class that I mentioned to compose it properly.

If you disable Javascript and objects that require plug-ins for viewing
HTML e-mail you are safe. If your concern is privacy (different than
security) you may use a cookies disabled mail program. I use Mozilla
Mail but you may prefer a smaller client.

Let's all stay in the stone age :)
It's a valid rfc, especially when one is going to use mime for html
attachments, so decent software should implement it.
It is better to play safe and let MTA convert to 8 bit when it knows
it can do that.
My terminal doesn't do 8bit, so nobody should use non-ascii characters
anywhere.
BTW although I personally don't have any unicode characterset installed,
I advocate the use of unicode (and utf-8 or utf-7 to transport it
safely).

I don't think you understand the problem. Composing and sending messages
are usually separate steps. You only know if the SMTP server that
receives the message supports the 8 bit encoded messages after you
connect to it and query its capabilities. Since composition is done
before that, you can't make any assumptions when you compose the messages.
As long as you have software capable of composing messages encoded in 7
bit (ASCII), why bother trying to encode them with 8 bit characters?
If the receiving SMTP server thinks it is worth converting the messages
to an 8 bit encoding, let it do it at its own risk.
It is better to play safe and let MTA convert to 8 bit when it knows
it can do that.
My terminal doesn't do 8bit, so nobody should use non-ascii characters
anywhere.
If you only understand english, it probably does not make sense to
expect non ASCII messages. That is a problem of who reads the messages
not the MTA.

I advocate the use of unicode (and utf-8 or utf-7 to transport it
safely).
I think you are confusing character sets with encodings. Unicode define
a character set that may be encoded as utf-8 or utf-7. You can use any 8
bit character set and encode it with quoted printable.
Quoted printable is what you should use to compose messages, not only
because the encoded messages only carry 7 bit characters despite they
may represent 8 bit text, but also it assures that the encoded message
lines do not exceed 75 characters even thouugh the text it self may have
lines of arbitrary length.
