I'm trying to build a program using PHP to increase the performance of Qmail.
I'm trying to use PHP to send an email qmail-remote which connects directly to the recipients mail server. If this fails it will then add it to the queue normally so it can retry later.
Here is what I have so far (Note this runs on the command line)
function sendMail($host, $to, $from, $message) {
$prog = "/var/qmail/bin/qmail-remote $host $from $to"; echo "Program = $prog \r\n";
$handle = popen ($prog, "w"); // fwrite($handle, $message) ; pclose($handle); }
The problem I have is I don't know how to write the message. When you manually run qmail-remote $host $from $to You then have to type the message then press control + D Just like the standard mail function in UNIX
How can I type "Message control + D" into the program ?
If you want to send a message directly to recipient SMTP server, you may want to try this SMTP class enabling the direct delivery mode.

To actually compose the message you want to send, you would better use that in class in conjunction with this other class for composing and sending e-mail messages. It comes with a sub-class specialized in deliverying via SMTP that using the class above.
