How can I send an email using PHP

PHP mail() Function

PHP has an internal function called mail(), which can support few parameters as follows

Syntax

mail(to,subject,message,headers,parameters);

Parameter Details

to ->  Required. Specifies the receiver / receivers of the email

subject ->  Required. Specifies the subject of the email. Note: This parameter cannot contain any newline characters

message -> Required. Defines the message to be sent. Each line should be separated with a LF (\n). Lines should not exceed 70 characters.

headers -> Optional. Specifies additional headers, like From, Cc, and Bcc. The additional headers should be separated with a CRLF (\r\n).

parameters -> Optional. Specifies an additional parameter to the sendmail program (the one defined in the sendmail_path configuration setting). (i.e. this can be used to set the envelope sender address when using sendmail with the -f sendmail option)

Send an email Example

<?php
$to = "devesh@example.com";
$subject = "My subject";
$txt = "Hello world!";
$headers = "From: info@example.com" . "\r\n" .
"CC: hari@example.com";
