I am having some problems with my formmail.php form. I can receive emails fine through the formmail.php form - that side of the form is working fine. The only problem is I am getting 2 identical duplicates of the same email when I submit a form using formmail.php?
This is using the Jack's Formmail Script...
Very similar problem has been posted to my problem at [webmasterworld.com...] but the solution has been removed from Jacks Formmail site as the forum has been closed down.
The weird thing is when I replace my recipient to another email address which is on the same server under a different domain or even an email address for example as @gmail - it all works fine and I get 1 email being received from the formmail.php form. However, when I use that particular domain I get 2 duplicates of the same email for every post I submit through formmail.php?
I have also attempted to try the form on different emails on the same domain and out of the 4 I have tried the same thing happens. I am lost for words?
Here is my formmail.php code:
-------------------------------------------------
// mail the content we figure out in the following steps
function mail_it($content, $subject, $email, $recipient) {
global $attachment_chunk, $attachment_name, $attachment_type, $attachment_sent, $bcc;
$ob = "----=_OuterBoundary_000";
$ib = "----=_InnerBoundery_001";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "From: ".$email."\n";
$headers .= "To: ".$recipient."\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: ".$email."\n";
if ($bcc) $headers .= "Bcc: ".$bcc."\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 1\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: DT Formmail".VERSION."\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\n\tboundary=\"".$ob."\"\n";
$message = "This is a multi-part message in MIME format.\n";
$message .= "\n--".$ob."\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: multipart/alternative;\n\tboundary=\"".$ib."\"\n\n";
$message .= "\n--".$ib."\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: text/plain;\n\tcharset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n";
$message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable\n\n";
$message .= $content."\n\n";
$message .= "\n--".$ib."--\n";
if ($attachment_name && !$attachment_sent) {
$message .= "\n--".$ob."\n";
$message .= "Content-Type: $attachment_type;\n\tname=\"".$attachment_name."\"\n";
$message .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64\n";
$message .= "Content-Disposition: attachment;\n\tfilename=\"".$attachment_name."\"\n\n";
$message .= $attachment_chunk;
$message .= "\n\n";
$attachment_sent = 1;
}
$message .= "\n--".$ob."--\n";
mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
// send it off
mail_it(stripslashes($content), ($subject)?stripslashes($subject):"Form Submission", $email, $recipient);
if (file_exists($ar_file)) {
$fd = fopen($ar_file, "rb");
$ar_message = fread($fd, filesize($ar_file));
fclose($fd);
mail_it($ar_message, ($ar_subject)?stripslashes($ar_subject):"RE: Form Submission", ($ar_from)?$ar_from:$recipient, $email);
}
Can anyone see if there is any mistake in the above code? I have spent a whole day trying to test this on multiple domains and on various emails and have tweaked the code but nothing solves these duplicates?
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
regards,
elv8.
