[Fixed] Not sure if it's a bug or not

For the last 24 hours or so, on two different computers UVK won't send an email

It just keeps saying email cant be sent. I am using the right email too

[Brink]

Obvious question: Do you have another email account on another server that you can try?

[Fred]

Thanks, Jim. I've been experiencing some server side problems since I updated PHP. I'll try to fix that bug ASAP.

Also Fred,

Would it be possible to add another email address? I guess I could just filter the mail but in my case I would like to send the mail to an entirely different server than the one I used to register. I don't know... Just spit balling here... maybe I should just filter it....

Jim, I'll add support for an extra email address in the new C++ UVK. It's actually a good idea.

I fixed the bug. It turns out that PHP does not allow multiple line breaks in mail headers. In case someone else is having the same problem, more info can be found here:

The new PHP function I made to send mail with attachments is as follows:

Code: Select all

function mail_attachment($to, $subject, $message, $from, $file, $msgtype = "text/html") {
	$fname = basename($file);
	$uid = md5(uniqid(time()));		
	$eol = PHP_EOL;
	$sep = md5(time());
		
	// multipart header
	$headers = "From: " . $from . $eol
	. "MIME-Version: 1.0" . $eol
	. "Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"" . $sep . "\"". $eol
	. "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit" . $eol
	. "This is a MIME encoded message.";
	
	// message body
	$body = "--" . $sep . $eol
	. "Content-Type: ". $msgtype . "; charset=\"utf-8\"" . $eol
	. "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit" . $eol . $eol
	. $message . $eol
	
	// attachment
	. "--" . $sep . $eol
	. "Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name=\"" . $fname . "\"" . $eol
	. "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64" . $eol
	. "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"" . $fname . "\"" . $eol . $eol
	. chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($file))) . $eol
	. $sep . "--";
	return mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers);
}
