My page continues to error out (Error 324 - Chrome) when attempting to send e-mails with attachments using PHP's PEAR Mail extension. Although the page error's out - I do receive one of the approximately 800 e-mails. Here's what I'm working with:
function email_statements($type) {
switch($type) {
// Determine the type of statement to be e-mailed
case 'monthly':
// Array holding all unique AP e-mail addresses
$ap_email_addresses = array();
include('../path/to/db/connection/params.php');
// Grab the unique AP e-mail address set to receive statements
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT email FROM statements GROUP BY email ORDER BY email ASC");
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($ap_email_address);
// Add unique e-mail address to AP E-mail Addresses array
while($row = $stmt->fetch()) $ap_email_addresses[] = $ap_email_address;
$stmt->close();
$mysqli->close();
// Verify we grabbed the e-mail addresses
if(count($ap_email_addresses) == 0) {
// Exit and return error code if unable to grab e-mail addresses
$return_message = 1;
exit;
}
// E-mail addresses grabbed - proceed
else {
// PDF formatted date
date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York');
$formatted_date = date('m_d_Y');
// Now we have the unique e-mail addresses - associate those with the account numbers
include('../path/to/db/connection/params.php');
foreach($ap_email_addresses as $email_address) {
$file_names = array();
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT customer_number FROM statements WHERE email = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $email_address);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($ap_account_number);
// Constructs the name of the statement (PDF) file to be sent
while($output = $stmt->fetch()) $file_names[] = $ap_account_number . '_' . $formatted_date . '.pdf';
// Send e-mails
include('Mail.php');
include('Mail/mime.php');
// Include SMTP authentication parameters
include('../path/to/email/info.php');
// Set the e-mail recipients
$recipients = 'example@example.com';
// Set the e-mail subject
$subject = 'Monthly Account Statement';
// Create the e-mail body
$html =
'<html>
<body>
<p>Test E-mail</p>
</body>
</html>';
// Construct the message headers
$headers = array(
'From' => $from,
'Subject' => $subject,
'Content-Type' => 'text/html; charset=UTF-8',
'MIME-Version' => '1.0'
);
$mimeparams = array();
$mimeparams['text_encoding'] = '8bit';
$mimeparams['text_charset'] = 'UTF-8';
$mimeparams['html_charset'] = 'UTF-8';
$mimeparams['head_charset'] = 'UTF-8';
// Create a new instance
$mime = new Mail_mime();
// Specify the e-mail body
$mime->setHTMLBody($html);
// Attach the statements (PDF)
foreach($file_names as $attached_file) {
$file = '../path/to/the/pdf/file/' . $attached_file;
$file_name = $attached_file;
$content_type = "Application/pdf";
$mime->addAttachment ($file, $content_type, $file_name, 1);
}
// Create the body
$body = $mime->get($mimeparams);
// Add the headers
$headers = $mime->headers($headers);
// Create SMTP connect array to be passed
$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp', array ('host' => $host, 'port' => $port, 'auth' => true, 'username' => $username, 'password' => $password));
// Send the message
$mail = $smtp->send($recipients, $headers, $body);
if(PEAR::isError($mail)) echo 'Error';
else echo 'Sent';
// Close this account and cycle through the rest
$stmt->close();
}
$mysqli->close();
}
break;
}
}
Now I thought maybe I wasn't giving the script enough time to execute - so I set it ridiculously high set_time_limit(99999999) to ensure it had plenty of time, although it normally times out within 10-15 seconds. So basically it works like this, I have an internal DB that stores customer account numbers and e-mail addresses. Accounts can have the same e-mail address (It's sent to their company's AP department) - aka one e-mail address receives statements for multiple branches. From their each statement is already constructed with the format being ACCOUNTNUMBER_MM_DD_YYYY.pdf.
So I'm simply trying to have a short message in the body, and attach the monthly statements. Again, not sure why it's failing, and even though the script halts, I do receive ONE of the e-mails (I'm sending them all to myself at the moment just to test). Can anyone see where I may have an issue?
