The samples below show how to send email from a Brinkster hosted web site through the supported email components.

Special Note
Be sure to make the following changes when using these coding examples:
1. Replace servername with the server name your site is hosted on.
2. Replace username with your Brinkster account username.
3. Replace YourDomain.com with a valid Brinkster hosted domain name.
4. Replace you@domain.com with a valid Brinkster hosted email account.
5. Replace password with the password for the email account used above.
6. Replace user@domain.com with a valid email account.

**Your FROM address must be the same as the email address you authenticate with.**


PHPMailer:

<?PHP

 

require("/sites/servername/username/home/includes/class.phpmailer.php");

 

$mail = new PHPMailer();

 

$mail->IsSMTP();

$mail->Host = "mymail.brinkster.com";

$mail->SMTPAuth = true;

$mail->Username = "you@domain.com";

$mail->Password = "password";

 

$mail->From = "you@domain.com";

$mail->FromName = "Your Name";

$mail->AddAddress("user@domain.com", "Display Name");

 

$mail->IsHTML(true);

 

$mail->Subject = "Test message sent using the PHPMailer component";

$mail->Body    = "This is a test message.";

 

if(!$mail->Send())

{

   echo "Message could not be sent. <p>";

   echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;

   exit;

}

 

echo "Message has been sent";

?>
