Sending message to email address like yahoomail/google mail? (Email notification-php)

[Exequiel]

hello friends, I just want to ask if how i can send a message to any email address like yahoomail/googlemail after i submit the form,

example emails:
[e-mail] // google mail,
[e-mail] //yahoo mail
message to send:
sender_name has been replied to your message.
to view it please go to: www.mypage.com/reply_message/ - (this is just a sample link)

public function save_reply()
{
    $theuser = $_POST['theuser'];
    $deskid = $_POST['deskid'];
    $message_reply = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['message_reply']);
            $today = date("m/d/Y h:i:s a");
            session_start();
            $files = (isset($_SESSION['uploadedIMG']))?$_SESSION['uploadedIMG']:'';
 
            $assigned = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM across_help_desk WHERE help_desk_id='$deskid'"));
 
            $insert_reply = mysql_query("INSERT INTO across_help_confirm_message(help_desk_id,assigned,reply_message,sender,sender_status,message_status,attach,date) VALUES('$deskid','$assigned[assigned]','$message_reply','$theuser','1','1','$files','$today')"); 
 
            /*
                code for sending message to email address.
                example emails: 
                    [e-mail] // google mail,
                    [e-mail] //yahoo mail

            */
 
        if($insert_reply)
        {
            $bi = 0;
            $ass = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM across_help_confirm_message WHERE help_desk_id='$deskid'");
            $count_help_id = mysql_num_rows($ass);
            $count_help_id = $count_help_id - 1;
            while($up_message = mysql_fetch_array($ass))
            {
                if($bi < $count_help_id)
                {
                    $mess_up = mysql_query("UPDATE across_help_confirm_message SET message_status='2' WHERE help_desk_id='$deskid' AND confirm_message_id='$up_message[confirm_message_id]'");
                }
                $bi++;
 
            }
 
            if($mess_up)
            {
                echo 1;//successfully send
            }
        }
        else
        {
            echo 0;    //not send
        }
    }

The last variation that we will consider is email with attachments. To send an email with attachment we need to use the multipart/mixed MIME type that specifies that mixed types will be included in the email. Moreover, we want to use multipart/alternative MIME type to send both plain-text and HTML version of the email. Have a look at the example:

<?php 
//define the receiver of the email 
$to = '[e-mail]'; 
//define the subject of the email 
$subject = 'Test email with attachment'; 
//create a boundary string. It must be unique 
//so we use the MD5 algorithm to generate a random hash 
$random_hash = md5(date('r', time())); 
//define the headers we want passed. Note that they are separated with \r\n 
$headers = "From: [e-mail]\r\nReply-To: [e-mail]"; 
//add boundary string and mime type specification 
$headers .= "\r\nContent-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"PHP-mixed-".$random_hash."\""; 
//read the atachment file contents into a string,
//encode it with MIME base64,
//and split it into smaller chunks
$attachment = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents('attachment.zip'))); 
//define the body of the message. 
ob_start(); //Turn on output buffering 
?> 
--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>  
Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>" 
 
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>  
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" 
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
 
Hello World!!! 
This is simple text email message. 
 
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>  
Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" 
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
 
<h2>Hello World!</h2> 
<p>This is something with <b>HTML</b> formatting.</p> 
 
--PHP-alt-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>-- 
 
--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>  
Content-Type: application/zip; name="attachment.zip"  
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64  
Content-Disposition: attachment  
 
<?php echo $attachment; ?> 
--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>-- 
 
<?php 
//copy current buffer contents into $message variable and delete current output buffer 
$message = ob_get_clean(); 
//send the email 
$mail_sent = @mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers ); 
//if the message is sent successfully print "Mail sent". Otherwise print "Mail failed" 
echo $mail_sent ? "Mail sent" : "Mail failed"; 
?>

As you can see, sending an email with attachment is easy to accomplish. In the preceding example we have multipart/mixed MIME type, and inside it we have multipart/alternative MIME type that specifies two versions of the email. To include an attachment to our message, we read the data from the specified file into a string, encode it with base64, split it in smaller chunks to make sure that it matches the MIME specifications and then include it as an attachment.

I used this codes for code igniter, but it still doesn't work. . the link that youve gave is cool, but it still doest work when i tried it. . thank you for the reply Aurangzeb :)

$this->load->library('email');
$this->email->from('across.ph');
$this->email->to("[e-mail]");
$this->email->subject('subject');
$this->email->message('sender_name has been replied to your message.');
$this->email->send();
