| In PHP, how do you send an automatic email? The registering with an Acmlmboard is too easy, so what I want to do is the following: when a person registers an account, an email will be send to his/her address with a password. With that password he/she can login and activate the account. Thanks  .(edited by Mercury on 08-14-04 02:03 PM) (edited by Mercury on 08-14-04 02:04 PM) |

| Use the mail() function: Something like that should work (not sure thought): if ($action == register) { mail("$mail", "$Title of the Mail", "$Account Info"); echo "An E-Mail with your account informations have been sent!"; } For more about the mail() function: Click here (edited by Cervantes on 08-14-04 02:09 PM) (edited by Cervantes on 08-14-04 02:10 PM) |

Ah, didn't know there exists a mail function  .Thanks, I'll try it out .Edit: Hmmm, I tried it (with my own mail address), but still haven't received a mail. Could it be that it takes longer than a few hours? (edited by Mercury on 08-14-04 05:27 PM) |

| the mail function has to be enabled, if you have hosting with some company, then its usually enabled, if you run a web server on your own pc, and its windows, then it doesnt work by default, I think you need a smtp server and such.... | |||

| No problem, I discovered that helping people was fun. And I'm now used to it, since I'm helping a few people on a board dedicated to PHP. (edited by Cervantes on 08-15-04 11:19 AM) |
