If i understand correctly you may need to utilise the built in function 'email_to_user' found in /lib/moodlelib.php.
function email_to_user($user, $from, $subject, $messagetext, $messagehtml = '', $attachment = '', $attachname = '',
$usetrueaddress = true, $replyto = '', $replytoname = '', $wordwrapwidth = 79)

Store email body in table using Laravel 5.3 Mailable

I want to store the email body in my communications table. My controller:
Mail::to($user->email)->send(new WelcomeEmail($subscription));
Communication::create([
'to' => $user->email,
'subject' => 'Welcome Email',
'body' => '???'
]);
My email goes out (successfully) and I am able to create a Communication record, but have no idea how to retrieve the email body.
After reading the Mail manual, I thought I could work with an event:
protected $listen = [
'Illuminate\Mail\Events\MessageSending' => [
'App\Listeners\LogSentMessage',
],
];
But here I get only the full plain text email. If I create an instance of the mail, with:
$email = Mail::to($user->email)->send(new WelcomeEmail($subscription));
the outcome of dd($email); is null.
Some extra info, in my WelcomeEmail.php, I am using a view:
public function build()
{
return $this->view('emails.welcome_email');
}
You can directly do this to render Mailable and store it in a variable
$html = (new WelcomeEmail($subscription))->render();
I found a solution, hopefully it can help other people.
$body = View::make('emails.welcome_email')
->with('subscription', $this->subscription)
->with('template', $this->template)
->render();
I rendered the view and saved it in the body variable.

Using Zend Mail with SMTP Authentication gives an error

I'm trying to create a form that sends an email using SMTP authentication, but I keep receiving an error. I've read a bunch of posts online and this is the code I've come up with so far. Does anyone see anything wrong with the code below? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Bob
$configSMTP = array(
'port' => 587,
'auth' => 'login',
'username' => '***',
'password' => '***'
);
$transport = new Zend_Mail_Transport_Smtp('mail.server.com', $configSMTP);
$mail = new Zend_Mail();
$mail->setReplyTo($config['replyto']);
$mail->setBodyText($message);
$mail->setFrom($params[$config['emailID']], $params[$config['nameID']]);
$mail->addTo($config['sendto']);
$mail->setSubject($config['subject']);
try {
$mail->send($transport);
} catch(Exception $ex) {
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->addError('There was an error submitting your request.');
}
Mandril's SMTP uses TLS.
http://help.mandrill.com/entries/21738477-What-SMTP-ports-can-I-use-
Enable it in your config array.
$configSMTP = array(
'ssl' => 'tls',
'port' => 587,
'auth' => 'login',
'username' => '***',
'password' => '***'
);
Would direct you maybe to section on resource plugins form Zend Mail. Give a better list of the options and shows how to assign them through your app.ini file.
That said, assuming your arguments are valid that looks fine.
What exception are you catching? You must be getting an error message. Can you telnet from this machine to your mail server? Want to eliminate network/auth issues.
It's hard to say without knowing what exception you're getting.
There might be several reasons, can you connect to the SMTP-server.. Is the port 587 really open? Do you have a firewall, and if so, might it be blocking the connection to that port? Are you really sure those credentials are valid? Have you tried manually connecting to the SMTP-server?
If not, see how you can do it with Telnet: How to test an SMTP server using Telnet
You could also try using a transactional email service. That way you wouldn't need to manage an SMTP-server or even think about deliverability, etc. You would just outsource it to someone else.
There are various providers, some of them are:
AlphaMail
Mandrill
PostageApp
If you're using AlphaMail, you could just use the AlphaMail PHP-client and send your emails like the example below:
include_once("comfirm.alphamail.client/emailservice.class.php");
$email_service = AlphaMailEmailService::create()
->setServiceUrl("http://api.amail.io/v1")
->setApiToken("YOUR-ACCOUNT-API-TOKEN-HERE");
$person = new stdClass();
$person->userId = "1234";
$person->firstName = "John";
$person->lastName = "Doe";
$person->dateOfBirth = 1975;
$response = $email_service->queue(EmailMessagePayload::create()
->setProjectId(12345) // You AlphaMail project (determines template, options, etc)
->setSender(new EmailContact("Sender Company Name", "from#example.com"))
->setReceiver(new EmailContact("Joe Doe", "to#example.org"))
->setBodyObject($person) // Any serializable object
);
The templates are constructed in the AlphaMail Dashboard using the Comlang templating language. This means that you can easily edit your emails at any time, without having to dig through code. Templates in Comlang look something like:
<html>
<body>
<b>Name:</b> <# payload.firstName " " payload.lastName #><br>
<b>Date of Birth:</b> <# payload.dateOfBirth #><br>
<# if (payload.userId != null) { #>
Sign Up Free!
<# } else { #>
Sign In
<# } #>
</body>
</html>

send email via Magento

I've seen on a few blog articles that this is a common way to send an email in Magento, but I have for the life of me, no idea why this email isnt being sent in 1.10! This is my method:
protected function _emailCode($code, $invoice) {
$order = $invoice->getOrder();
// Transactional Email Template's ID
$templateId = 1;
// Set sender information
$senderName = Mage::getStoreConfig('trans_email/ident_support/name');
$senderEmail = Mage::getStoreConfig('trans_email/ident_support/email');
$sender = array('name' => $senderName,
'email' => $senderEmail);
// Set recepient information
$recepientEmail = $order->getCustomerEmail();
$recepientName = $order->getCustomerName();
// Get Store ID
$storeId = Mage::app()->getStore()->getId();
// Set variables that can be used in email template
$vars = array('voucherCode' => $code);
$translate = Mage::getSingleton('core/translate');
// Send Transactional Email
Mage::getModel('core/email_template')
->sendTransactional($templateId, $sender, $recepientEmail, $recepientName, $vars, $storeId);
$translate->setTranslateInline(true);
}
I should note that emails works in other parts of Magento so sendmail is working properly and all that, also all my variables here are defined correctly and not empty when going through this.
Thanks!
Are you sure that transactional email with ID=1 exist?
try setting $templateId='sales_email_order_template'
this is a default template, should fit working script.
Check exception.log also.

magento how to send order emails only to the admin (not to customer)

I want magento to send the order emails only to the admin not to the customer,
because the customer gets an email from another system.
It's possible to send an ordermail to the customer, or to the customer and admin but it seems to be impossible to send the mail only to the admin.
If someone knows how to do it I would be very thankful.
best regards nico
Good news: it's easy. Bad news: you cannot make it in interface, you can only program it.
Overload sending of emails in Mage_Sales_Model_Order->sendNewOrderEmail(), remove sending to customer from there.
thanks a lot!
I just commentet out this area, and it works.
/* $sendTo = array(
array(
'email' => $this->getCustomerEmail(),
'name' => $customerName
)
);
*/
if ($copyTo && $copyMethod == 'copy') {
foreach ($copyTo as $email) {
$sendTo[] = array(
'email' => $email,
'name' => null
);
}
}

email component smtp error cakephp

im getting this error when sending emails with cake's email component
[smtpError] => 535 5.7.1 http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=14257 r11sm77490vbx.11
any ideas? here's my code...
$this->Email->to = array(' juan <name#gmail.com>');
$this->Email->from = 'name#gmail.com';
$this->Email->subject = 'Welcome to our really cool thing';
$this->Email->template = 'simple_message';
$this->Email->sendAs = 'both';
$this->Email->smtpOptions = array(
'port'=>'465',
'timeout'=>'30',
'auth' => true,
'host' => 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com',
'username'=>'name#gmail.com',
'password'=>'********',
);
You have a space there before your name, which could possibly be sending the wrong data. Have you tried the code without that extra space?
Well, the link in the error message to google's support forums say that the username and password combination are incorrect. I'd recommend that you try logging in to that gmail account with the specified password, just to triple check that you're not mistaken. That happens a lot to me, all the time.
Secondly, are you sure you're supposed to put the #gmail.com in for the username? Maybe it should just be 'name' rather than 'name#gmail.com'.
Apart from that stated by #Travis ... i would also suggest that the from should also be constructed in this format "Name " ... otherwise I don't think the email will go through.
