phpmailer problem

[mrsbean]

I'm not sure what I did wrong. It was working earlier, but I inadvertantly changed something which made my php script fail to send the mail anymore.

Here is the screen of the page which shows the error:

Thank you for your inquiry


The following information has been sent to the webmaster:

Message was not sentMailer Error: Language string failed to load: recipients_failedmyemail@someserver.com


Here is the code related to the mailer:

require("../phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php");
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP
$mail->Host = "smtp-relay.someserver.com"; // SMTP server
$mail->From = "me@someserver.com";
$mail->AddAddress ("myemail@someserver.com");
$mail->username = "myusername"; //username on the relay server
$mail->password = "mypassword"; //password on the relay server

$mail->Subject = "data update";
$mail->Body = $myresult;
$mail->WordWrap = 60;

if(!$mail->Send())
{
echo "Message was not sent";
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}
else
{
echo "Message has been sent";
}


Any help is much appreciated.

Where do you set "$myresult"?

if yer not doing anything more complex than just sending a message you could use the mail() function built into PHP.

bool mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string additional_headers [, string additional_parameters]])

your script would be then:

*btw i noticed there isnt a "to" address

$myemail = "me@someserver.com";
$subject = "data update";
$body = $myresult;
$headers = "From: $myemail\r\n";

if(!mail($ToRecicipant, $subject, $body, $headers)
{
   echo "Message was not sent";
}
else
{
   echo "Message has been sent";
}

If you need more information passed with the email you can add more headers as such.

$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $name <$email>\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-to: $name <$email>\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3\r\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP mailer\r\n";
