(PHP ActiveX) Send Email with a vCard

Demonstrates how to create a simple email, attach a vcard, and send it.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// The mailman object is used for sending and receiving email.
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.MailMan')
$mailman = new COM("Chilkat.MailMan");

// Set the SMTP server.
$mailman->SmtpHost = 'smtp.chilkatsoft.com';

// Set the SMTP login/password (if required)
$mailman->SmtpUsername = 'myUsername';
$mailman->SmtpPassword = 'myPassword';

// Create a new email object
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Email')
$email = new COM("Chilkat.Email");

$email->Subject = 'This is a vcard test';
$email->Body = 'This is a vcard test';
$email->From = 'Chilkat Admin <admin@chilkatsoft.com>';
$success = $email->AddTo('Chilkat Support','support@chilkatsoft.com');
// To add more recipients, call AddTo, AddCC, or AddBcc once per recipient.

// A vCard is an email attachment having a Content-Type = "text/x-vcard".
// Call AddStringAttachment to add a vcard from an in-memory string.
// The filename should have a ".vcf" file extension.  Chilkat will automatically
// recognize it and set the content-type to "text/x-vcard";

// Your application is responsible for providing the vcard formatted string.  For example:
// See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VCard
// 
// begin:vcard
// fn:Matt Smith
// n:Smith;Matt
// org:Chilkat Software, Inc.
// tel;work:630-784-9670
// url:http://www.chilkatsoft.com
// version:2.1
// end:vcard

$vcard = 'begin:vcard ...';
$success = $email->AddStringAttachment('admin.vcf',$vcard);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $email->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Call SendEmail to connect to the SMTP server and send.
// The connection (i.e. session) to the SMTP server remains
// open so that subsequent SendEmail calls may use the
// same connection.  
$success = $mailman->SendEmail($email);
if ($success != 1) {
    print $mailman->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// Some SMTP servers do not actually send the email until 
// the connection is closed.  In these cases, it is necessary to
// call CloseSmtpConnection for the mail to be  sent.  
// Most SMTP servers send the email immediately, and it is 
// not required to close the connection.  We'll close it here
// for the example:
$success = $mailman->CloseSmtpConnection();
if ($success != 1) {
    print 'Connection to SMTP server not closed cleanly.' . "\n";
}

print 'Mail with vCard Sent!' . "\n";
