This is so odd… Hello, I am so confused by this email issue Im having. I use the below code to email a single zip file, and it works ONLY if my html content is extensive (like 40 or so lines of content)…
If I shorten it to just a paragraph, I still receive the email, and the attachment, but the attachment will not extract, it says corrupt. ?? that doesnt make sense to me.
Ive spent 2 days trying to find another script, but I tried phpmailer and I cant get that to even email me at all, but most likely because I dont understand the smtp part of it. im guessing.
I know this is just a long shot, but I still posted just in case someone actually has heard of this happenning before…
