Version 2.3 (November 08, 2008)
13

    
14
PHP4 continues to be a major platform for developers. We are responding
15
to the emails received to continue development for PHP4 with this 
16
release.
17

    
18
We have removed the /phpdoc from the downloads. All documentation is now on
19
the http://phpmailer.codeworxtech.com website.

21
For all other changes and notes, please see the changelog.

29
Version 2.0.2 (June 04 2008)
30

    
31
With this release, we are announcing that the development of PHPMailer for PHP5
32
will be our focus from this date on. We have implemented all the enhancements
33
and fixes from the sourceforge.net Tracker.
34

    
35
** NOTE: WE HAVE A NEW LANGUAGE VARIABLE FOR DIGITALLY SIGNED S/MIME EMAILS.
36
   IF YOU CAN HELP WITH LANGUAGES OTHER THAN ENGLISH AND SPANISH, IT WOULD BE
37
   APPRECIATED.
38

    
39
We have now added S/MIME functionality (ability to digitally sign emails).
40
BIG THANKS TO "sergiocambra" for posting this patch back in November 2007.
41
The "Signed Emails" functionality adds the Sign method to pass the private key
42
filename and the password to read it, and then email will be sent with
43
content-type multipart/signed and with the digital signature attached.
44

    
45
We have also included more example files to show the use of "sendmail", "mail()",
46
"smtp", and "gmail".
47

    
48
We are also looking for more programmers to join the volunteer development team.
49
If you have an interest in this, please let us know.
50

    
51
Enjoy!
52

    
53
** NOTE:
54

    
55
As of November 2007, PHPMailer has a new project team headed by industry
56
veteran Andy Prevost (codeworxtech). The first release in more than two
57
years will focus on fixes, adding ease-of-use enhancements, provide
58
basic compatibility with PHP4 and PHP5 using PHP5 backwards compatibility
59
features. A new release is planned before year-end 2007 that will provide
60
full compatiblity with PHP4 and PHP5, as well as more bug fixes.
61

    
62
We are looking for project developers to assist in restoring PHPMailer to
63
its leadership position. Our goals are to simplify use of PHPMailer, provide
64
good documentation and examples, and retain backward compatibility to level
65
1.7.3 standards.

86

    
87
Why you might need it:
88

    
89
Many PHP developers utilize email in their code.  The only PHP function
90
that supports this is the mail() function.  However, it does not expose
91
any of the popular features that many email clients use nowadays like
92
HTML-based emails and attachments. There are two proprietary
93
development tools out there that have all the functionality built into
94
easy to use classes: AspEmail(tm) and AspMail.  Both of these
95
programs are COM components only available on Windows.  They are also a
96
little pricey for smaller projects.
97

    
98
Since I do Linux development I?ve missed these tools for my PHP coding.
99
So I built a version myself that implements the same methods (object
100
calls) that the Windows-based components do. It is open source and the
101
LGPL license allows you to place the class in your proprietary PHP
102
projects.
103

    
104

    
105
Installation:
106

    
107
Copy class.phpmailer.php into your php.ini include_path. If you are
108
using the SMTP mailer then place class.smtp.php in your path as well.
109
In the language directory you will find several files like
110
phpmailer.lang-en.php.  If you look right before the .php extension
111
that there are two letters.  These represent the language type of the
112
translation file.  For instance "en" is the English file and "br" is
113
the Portuguese file.  Chose the file that best fits with your language
114
and place it in the PHP include path.  If your language is English
115
then you have nothing more to do.  If it is a different language then
116
you must point PHPMailer to the correct translation.  To do this, call
117
the PHPMailer SetLanguage method like so:
118

    
119
// To load the Portuguese version
120
$mail->SetLanguage("br", "/optional/path/to/language/directory/");
121

    
122
That's it.  You should now be ready to use PHPMailer!
123

    
124

    
125
A Simple Example:
126

    
127
<?php
128
require("class.phpmailer.php");
129

    
130
$mail = new PHPMailer();
131

    
132
$mail->IsSMTP();                                      // set mailer to use SMTP
133
$mail->Host = "smtp1.example.com;smtp2.example.com";  // specify main and backup server
134
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;     // turn on SMTP authentication
135
$mail->Username = "jswan";  // SMTP username
136
$mail->Password = "secret"; // SMTP password
137

    
138
$mail->From = "from@example.com";
139
$mail->FromName = "Mailer";
140
$mail->AddAddress("josh@example.net", "Josh Adams");
141
$mail->AddAddress("ellen@example.com");                  // name is optional
142
$mail->AddReplyTo("info@example.com", "Information");
143

    
144
$mail->WordWrap = 50;                                 // set word wrap to 50 characters
145
$mail->AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz");         // add attachments
146
$mail->AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg");    // optional name
147
$mail->IsHTML(true);                                  // set email format to HTML
148

    
149
$mail->Subject = "Here is the subject";
150
$mail->Body    = "This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>";
151
$mail->AltBody = "This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients";
152

    
153
if(!$mail->Send())
154
{
155
   echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";
156
   echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
157
   exit;
158
}
159

    
160
echo "Message has been sent";
161
?>
