  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

How to setup plesk to use mail() to send HTML email

mail() HTML email not working

Hi,

I have just signed up to a virtual host plan running with Virtuzzo & Plesk on a Linux.

I'm trying to send HTML email via PHP (mail() function) and it is not working. The server receiving the HTML email does not understand that it actually IS an HTML email. I know my script is correct because on other servers it works fine (a copy of the script below).

Is there something to enable in the php.ini file or in Qmail or Sendmail.

Code:
    $to = 'email@gmail.com';
    $subject = "Email Subject";
    						
    $body = "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN\" \"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">\n\n<html xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">\n
    <head>\n
    <title>The Title</title>\n
    </head>\n
    your message<br />\n
    Your Message\n
    </body>\n
    </html>\n";
    						
    $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0'."\r\n";
    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'."\r\n";
    $headers .= 'To: '.$name.' <'.$email.'>,' . "\r\n";
    $headers .= 'From: Name<email@hotmail.com>'."\r\n";

    if(mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers)){
    echo "Mail has been sent";
    }else{
    echo "Mail Failed";
    }


Please help me....

Thanks in advance.
