HTML or Plain Text?

Is anyone managing this Project? Doesn't seem that many issues are being attended to?

I wrote this module one afternoon because such functionality had been frequently requested. I've never used it myself. I'm very happy to have people contribute improvements, but am unlikely to find much time myself to code solutions to feature requests. In other words, please, submit patches!

Sorry, didn't mean for anyone to take offense. Just when had filtered through all status of the Mail Project, only saw that one had been assigned to an individual. I apologize! :)

AND I agree, I guess if there's a way to submit a valid "ticket" where it's actually a TICKET. I work in technical support myself where I know that roughly 10% are considered "VALID" issues. AND when it's left to the ticket submitter themselves, 100% of ticket submissions are considered, in their mind, critical. Still on the customer's end if they know that their 100% perhaps haven't been considered or viewed, they feel an openendedness as to when or IF their plight is important.

I know that Drupal isn't that way nor should be that way where items needed to be touched, addressed or resolved within a certain span of time IE. 48hrs. AND WITH that implementation, sometimes STATS get the betterment of an organization when it comes solely down to numbers.

None taken. I just wanted to explain that, while I'll do my best to fix bugs, I don't have the spare time to do much for feature requests. But - in the collaborative Drupal spirit - I'd be delighted if others wanted to wade in and make improvements.

Kudos to that!

I wish I had more php programming under my belt besides what I've altered myself to suit my own basic needs!

Drupal is a GREAT way to work backwards front to produce the desired results!

It might be worth noting in the docs (or in the help), that only plain text mail can be sent. I found out the hard way after preparing a lengthy HTML Email. Also I would think the preponderance of email are now HTML, and the option would really be nice.

Nedjo, I know you don't have the time, but if you could point out where to change the code, i would have a crack at it, even though my PHP skills are virtually non-existent.

Thanks

I was working on attaching files to mails and came across a php class that allows:

(a) choose whether to send in plain text or html format

(b) choose different character sets

(c) Do an email validation

(d) set the prority level

(e) And attach files.

Am just finishing off the attach files bit and am looking for help with the code..

I'll post a patch (not exaclty sure how to do that) or a modifed version of mail for 4.5.2 and 4.6 when I'm done with the above extra options that can be set in the admin/settings/mail page.

just created a beta mail.module (enhanced). works on drupal 4.6.0. and has the added features mentioned...in particular the file attachment and the option for HTML/PLAN TEXT

I have put it up for testing before submitting a patch for Nedjo to have a look at.
