That's why Nette Framework provides necessary tools. Example of creating an e-mail using `Nette\Mail\Message` class: ``` use Nette\Mail\Message; $mail = new Message; $mail->setFrom('John ') ->addTo('peter@example.com') ->addTo('jack@example.com') ->setSubject('Order Confirmation') ->setBody("Hello, Your order has been accepted."); ``` All parameters must be encoded in UTF-8. And sending: ``` use Nette\Mail\SendmailMailer; $mailer = new SendmailMailer; $mailer->send($mail); ``` In addition to specifying recipient with `addTo()`, it's possible to specify recipient of copy with `addCc()` and recipient of blind copy: `addBcc()`. In all these methods, including `setFrom()`, we can specifiy addressee in three ways: ``` $mail->setFrom('john.doe@example.com'); $mail->setFrom('john.doe@example.com', 'John Doe'); $mail->setFrom('John Doe '); ``` HTML content can be defined using `setHtmlBody()` method: ``` $mail->setHTMLBody('Sample HTML '); ``` Embedded images can be inserted using `$mail->addEmbeddedFile('background.gif')`, but it is not necessary. Why? Because Nette Framework finds and inserts all files referenced in the HTML code automatically. This behavior can be supressed by adding `FALSE` as a second parameter of the `setHtmlBody()` method. If a HTML e-mail has no plain-text alternative, it will be automatically generated. And if it has no subject set, it will be taken from the `` element. Of course, it's possible to add attachments to the e-mail: ``` $mail->addAttachment('example.zip'); ``` Can e-mail sending be even easier? Custom mailer ------------- [](#custom-mailer) Default mailer uses PHP function `mail`. If you need to send mail through a SMTP server, you can use `SmtpMailer`. ``` $mailer = new Nette\Mail\SmtpMailer(array( 'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com', 'username' => 'john@gmail.com', 'password' => '*****', 'secure' => 'ssl', )); $mailer->send($mail); ``` You can also create your own mailer - it's a class implementing Nette\\Mail\\IMailer interface. ### Health Score 30 — LowBetter than 64% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity8 Limited adoption so far Community18 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity65 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 81.8% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
