Email with Attachment


Sample Call:

$to = 'receivent@gmail.com';
$subject = 'Product Export attachment';
$email_from ="sender@gmail.com";
$semi_rand = md5(time());
$message = 'Please review the following attachments.';
// Define a list of FILES to send along with the e-mail. Key = File to be sent. Value = Name of file as seen in the e-mail.
$attachments = array(
''.$file_path.'' => 'Orders_Export_'.$today.'.csv',
);

// Define any additional headers you may want to include
$headers = array(
'Reply-to' => 'sender@gmail.com',
'From' => 'sender@gmail.com'
);

$status = mailAttachments($to, $email_from, $subject, $message, $attachments, $headers);
if($status === True) {
print 'Successfully mailed!';
} else {
print 'Unable to send e-mail.';
}
if($status==true){
if(file_exists($file_path) ){
unlink($file_path);
}
}

A php method to send email with file attachment:
function mailAttachments($to, $from, $subject, $message, $attachments = array(), $headers = array(), $additional_parameters = '') {
$headers['From'] = $from;

// Define the boundray we're going to use to separate our data with.
$mime_boundary = '==MIME_BOUNDARY_' . md5(time());

// Define attachment-specific headers
$headers['MIME-Version'] = '1.0';
$headers['Content-Type'] = 'multipart/mixed; boundary="' . $mime_boundary . '"';
$headers['X-Priority']= "3";
$headers['X-MSmail-Priority']= "high";

// Convert the array of header data into a single string.
$headers_string = '';
foreach($headers as $header_name => $header_value) {
if(!empty($headers_string)) {
$headers_string .= "\r\n";
}
$headers_string .= $header_name . ': ' . $header_value;
}

// Message Body
$message_string = '--' . $mime_boundary;
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"';
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit';
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= $message;
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= "\r\n";

// Add attachments to message body
foreach($attachments as $local_filename => $attachment_filename) {
if(is_file($local_filename)) {
$message_string .= '--' . $mime_boundary;
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="' . $attachment_filename . '"';
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= 'Content-Description: ' . $attachment_filename;
$message_string .= "\r\n";

$fp = @fopen($local_filename, 'rb'); // Create pointer to file
$file_size = filesize($local_filename); // Read size of file
$data = @fread($fp, $file_size); // Read file contents
$data = chunk_split(base64_encode($data)); // Encode file contents for plain text sending

$message_string .= 'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' . $attachment_filename . '"; size=' . $file_size. ';';
$message_string .= "\r\n";
$message_string .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64';
$message_string .= "\r\n\r\n";
$message_string .= $data;
$message_string .= "\r\n\r\n";
}
}
// Signal end of message
$message_string .= '--' . $mime_boundary . '--';
// Send the e-mail.
return mail($to, $subject, $message_string, $headers_string, $additional_parameters);
}
