This question already has an answer here:
I am working on a php project and I got to a part where I am supposed to send a mail to the user. I decided to use the PHP function mail()
. Anytime I try the code below, it is unsuccessful:
// Sending the confirmation mail
$confirmation_link = "http://localhost/africafashion_newversion/confirm.php?id=$user_id&token=$token";
$to = $_POST['email'];
$subject = "Confirmation de votre compte";
$message = '
<html>
<head>
<title>'.$subject.'</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="border-collapse:collapse;margin:0;padding:0;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;width:100%!important;height:100%!important">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td align="center" style="padding-bottom:20px;border-collapse:collapse">
<img src="logo.png" alt="Stack Exchange" style="width:180px;min-height:43px; padding:30px 0; text-align: center;outline:none;" />
<div style="max-width:400px; margin: 0 auto; border:1px solid #eee;border-radius:3px;background:#ffffff; padding: 25px 10px;">
<p>You are almost done!</p>
<p><a href="'.$confirmation_link.'" style="color:#15c; text-decoration: none;">Click here to complete your registration</a></p>
</div>
<div style="font-size:95%; color:#999;font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif">

// Always set content-type when sending HTML email
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "
";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "
";
// More headers
$headers .= 'From: <no-reply@example.com>' . "

if (mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers)) {
$_SESSION['flash']['success'] = 'A mail has been successfully sent.';
header('Location: login.php');
exit();
}else{
$_SESSION['flash']['danger'] = "Confirmation mail not sent";
$req = $pdo->prepare('DELETE FROM users WHERE UserID = ?');
$req->execute([$user_id]);
header('Location: register.php');
exit();
}
}
Please help me solve this problem.
