Unfortunately, excellent programs are often made by foreigners. Who cares, the Internet knows no borders. , let me give you a simple demonstration first:
How about the page code for sending emails in PHP:
<ol class="dp-xml">
<li class="alt"><span><span class="tag"><</span><span> ?php </span></span></li><li><span>require("mail/class.phpmailer.php");//调用 </span></li><li class="alt"><span>$</span><span class="attribute">mail</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">new</span><span> PHPMailer();//实例化phpmailer </span></li><li><span>$</span><span class="attribute">address</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"mailxi@126.com"</span><span>;//接收邮件的邮箱 </span></li><li class="alt"><span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>IsSMTP(); // 设置发送邮件的协议：SMTP </span></span></li>
<li>
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">Host</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"smtp.163.com"</span><span>; // 发送邮件的服务器 </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">SMTPAuth</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">true</span><span>; // 打开SMTP </span>

<li>
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">From</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"mailxi@163.com"</span><span>; </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">FromName</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"peng"</span><span>; </span>
</li>
<li>
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>AddAddress("$address", ""); </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>//$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>AddAddress(""); // name is optional </span>
</li>
<li>
<span>//$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>AddReplyTo("", ""); </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>//$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">WordWrap</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">50</span><span>; // set word wrap to 50 characters </span>
</li>
<li>
<span>//$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>AddAttachment("/var/tmp/file.tar.gz"); // add attachments </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>//$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>AddAttachment("/tmp/image.jpg", "new.jpg"); // optional name </span>
</li>
<li>
<span>//$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>IsHTML(true); // set email format to HTML </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">CharSet</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"UTF-8"</span><span>;//设置字符集编码 </span>
</li>
<li>
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">Subject</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"Sinopf的测试邮件"</span><span>; </span>
</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span class="attribute">Body</span><span> = </span><span class="attribute-value">"Hello,Sinopf的测试邮件"</span><span>;//邮件内容（可以是HTML邮件） </span>

</li>
<li class="alt">
<span>if(!$mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>Send()) </span>
</li>
<li><span>{ </span></li>
<li class="alt">
<span>echo "Message could not be sent. </span><span class="tag"><</span><span> </span><span class="tag-name">p</span><span class="tag">></span><span>"; </span>
</li>
<li>
<span>echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail-</span><span class="tag">></span><span>ErrorInfo; </span>
</li>
<li class="alt"><span>exit; </span></li>
<li><span>} </span></li>
<li class="alt"><span>echo "Message has been sent";//发送成功显示的信息 </span></li>
<li>
<span class="tag">?></span><span> </span>
</li>
</ol>? Is it simple to implement sending emails in PHP? Of course, this is just a simple demonstration. You still need to figure out more applications by yourself, such as sending activation codes, sending registration information, etc., and draw inferences from one example.
