i want to send a mail from mail account to another with adding a template(an image), actually i want to develop a site like fabusend , branding email. I'm little bit close to it but some thing lost. i can send a mail from my php code to an email account but how can i send my desired template from yahoo or gmail or other email service providers, like fabusend telling?
please help me to solve this.
thanks in advance.
This might sound naive but I think until Gmail or Yahoo mail allows you to edit HTML directly, the only way to do it is through OLE, i.e. you can typeset and draft the headers in Microsoft Word and then copy-paste them into the compose window.
You might lose some formatting this way though.
Update: another way is to send yourself an email with the header template, and then send future emails by editing that email (e.g. forward it and remove the fwd: and forwarding message).
I know GMail allows rich text editing which means you can insert images in to your email. You may have to enable it though. You can find it under Settings -> Labs. It's called Insert Images.
Having trouble reading through the marketing-speak to see exactly what Fabusend provides -- just mail templates? An actual MTA or frontend for sending out bulk mail campaigns?
If it's just for sending via a customer's own mail setup, which could be a Gmail or other account-- You could have your app provide the templated message content and ask the user to copy-paste it to their client software for sending. Or if you absolutely had to, you could prompt for account credentials (something which is often frowned upon) and use these to send the message via Gmail's SMTP server. There've been lots of oast SO question re: sending via Gmail's SMTP servers, here's one. The same principles should apply to other email providers who give SMTP access.
