[SOLVED] Use CMSMailer in a UDT

Gust · Post by **Gust** » Wed Mar 25, 2009 10:31 am

Hello,

I want to use CMSMailer in an UDT to send an e-mail. I've configured CMSMailer in the admin panel and received the test e-mail.

However, I've tested a quickly put-together UDT to test the use of CMSMailer, but I don't received the mail.

I am using this code:

Code: Select all

global $gCms;

//use CMSMailer module to send mail
$cmsmailer =& $gCms->modules['CMSMailer']['object']; 
$cmsmailer->AddAddress('my@email.com',$name='My Name'); 
$cmsmailer->SetPriority(1);
$cmsmailer->SetFrom('sender@email.com');
$cmsmailer->SetFromName('Sender Name');
$cmsmailer->SetBody('This is the body text'); 
$cmsmailer->IsHTML(true); 
$cmsmailer->SetSubject('This is the subject'); 
$cmsmailer->Send();

What am I doing wrong?

What is this used for, kind of helps if you can give more info on what you are trying to achieve, as it may be something that is already being done like a contact form can be done ez using form builder, etc...

there's an error in your UDT.

I am using it to send the result of the form to an helpdesk, which transfers it into a support ticket.

The code I've posted above is just a test to see how sending mail with CMSMailer with a UDT works...

CMSMailer is set to send mail over SMTP...

It can't be done with Form Builder or something, because I need a specific form and need to set a priority for the mail that will be send (so the ticket also automaticly get a priority)...

Can you elaborate on this?

Which error did I make?

I think this:

$cmsmailer->AddAddress('my@email.com',$name='My Name');

should be:

$cmsmailer->AddAddress('my@email.com','My Name');

Appearantly it was an authentification problem.

When I call the function of CMSMailer in the UDT, it didn't take the login details for the SMTP-server that I set up in CMSMailer configuration.

So I call this explicit in the UDT and my problem was solved!

Grtz,
Gust
