Sending email is not only simple, but you can configure it on the fly or
set your preferences in a config file.
Here is a basic example demonstrating how you might send email. Note:
This example assumes you are sending the email from one of your
<a class="reference internal" href="../general/controllers.html">controllers</a>.
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$this-&gt;load-&gt;library(&#39;email&#39;);

$this-&gt;email-&gt;from(&#39;your@example.com&#39;, &#39;Your Name&#39;);
$this-&gt;email-&gt;to(&#39;someone@example.com&#39;);
$this-&gt;email-&gt;cc(&#39;another@another-example.com&#39;);
$this-&gt;email-&gt;bcc(&#39;them@their-example.com&#39;);

$this-&gt;email-&gt;subject(&#39;Email Test&#39;);
$this-&gt;email-&gt;message(&#39;Testing the email class.&#39;);

$this-&gt;email-&gt;send();
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="setting-email-preferences">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id3">Setting Email Preferences</a><a class="headerlink" href="#setting-email-preferences" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
There are 21 different preferences available to tailor how your email
messages are sent. You can either set them manually as described here,
or automatically via preferences stored in your config file, described
below:
Preferences are set by passing an array of preference values to the
email initialize method. Here is an example of how you might set some
preferences:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$config[&#39;protocol&#39;] = &#39;sendmail&#39;;
$config[&#39;mailpath&#39;] = &#39;/usr/sbin/sendmail&#39;;
$config[&#39;charset&#39;] = &#39;iso-8859-1&#39;;
$config[&#39;wordwrap&#39;] = TRUE;

$this-&gt;email-&gt;initialize($config);
</pre></div>
</div>
<div class="admonition note">
Note
Most of the preferences have default values that will be used
if you do not set them.
</div>
<div class="section" id="setting-email-preferences-in-a-config-file">
<h4><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4">Setting Email Preferences in a Config File</a><a class="headerlink" href="#setting-email-preferences-in-a-config-file" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h4>
If you prefer not to set preferences using the above method, you can
instead put them into a config file. Simply create a new file called the
email.php, add the $config array in that file. Then save the file at
config/email.php and it will be used automatically. You will NOT need to
use the <code class="docutils literal">$this-&gt;email-&gt;initialize()</code> method if you save your
preferences in a config file.

<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id6">Overriding Word Wrapping</a><a class="headerlink" href="#overriding-word-wrapping" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
If you have word wrapping enabled (recommended to comply with RFC 822)
and you have a very long link in your email it can get wrapped too,
causing it to become un-clickable by the person receiving it.
CodeIgniter lets you manually override word wrapping within part of your
message like this:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>The text of your email that
gets wrapped normally.

{unwrap}http://example.com/a_long_link_that_should_not_be_wrapped.html{/unwrap}

More text that will be
wrapped normally.

Sets the BCC email address(s). Just like the <code class="docutils literal">to()</code> method, can be a single
e-mail, a comma-delimited list or an array.
If <code class="docutils literal">$limit</code> is set, “batch mode” will be enabled, which will send
the emails to batches, with each batch not exceeding the specified
<code class="docutils literal">$limit</code>.

This is an optional message string which can be used if you send
HTML formatted email. It lets you specify an alternative message
with no HTML formatting which is added to the header string for
people who do not accept HTML email. If you do not set your own
message CodeIgniter will extract the message from your HTML email
and strip the tags.

Initializes all the email variables to an empty state. This method
is intended for use if you run the email sending method in a loop,
permitting the data to be reset between cycles.
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>foreach ($list as $name =&gt; $address)
{
 $this-&gt;email-&gt;clear();

 $this-&gt;email-&gt;send();

The e-mail sending method. Returns boolean TRUE or FALSE based on
success or failure, enabling it to be used conditionally:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>if ( ! $this-&gt;email-&gt;send())
{
 // Generate error
}
</pre></div>
</div>
This method will automatically clear all parameters if the request was
successful. To stop this behaviour pass FALSE:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>if ($this-&gt;email-&gt;send(FALSE))
{
 // Parameters won&#39;t be cleared

Enables you to send an attachment. Put the file path/name in the first
parameter. For multiple attachments use the method multiple times.
For example:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach(&#39;/path/to/photo1.jpg&#39;);
$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach(&#39;/path/to/photo2.jpg&#39;);
$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach(&#39;/path/to/photo3.jpg&#39;);
</pre></div>
</div>
To use the default disposition (attachment), leave the second parameter blank,
otherwise use a custom disposition:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach(&#39;image.jpg&#39;, &#39;inline&#39;);
</pre></div>
</div>
You can also use a URL:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach(&#39;http://example.com/filename.pdf&#39;);
</pre></div>
</div>
If you’d like to use a custom file name, you can use the third parameter:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach(&#39;filename.pdf&#39;, &#39;attachment&#39;, &#39;report.pdf&#39;);
</pre></div>
</div>
If you need to use a buffer string instead of a real - physical - file you can
use the first parameter as buffer, the third parameter as file name and the fourth
parameter as mime-type:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>$this-&gt;email-&gt;attach($buffer, &#39;attachment&#39;, &#39;report.pdf&#39;, &#39;application/pdf&#39;);

Sets and returns an attachment’s Content-ID, which enables your to embed an inline

Returns a string containing any server messages, the email headers, and
the email message. Useful for debugging.
You can optionally specify which parts of the message should be printed.
Valid options are: headers, subject, body.
Example:
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre>// You need to pass FALSE while sending in order for the email data
// to not be cleared - if that happens, print_debugger() would have
// nothing to output.
$this-&gt;email-&gt;send(FALSE);

// Will only print the email headers, excluding the message subject and body
$this-&gt;email-&gt;print_debugger(array(&#39;headers&#39;));

By default, all of the raw data will be printed.
