Question

I\'m trying to send an e-mail with Codeigniter like this:

$this->load->library(\'email\');

$this->email->from(\"myemail@email.com\");
$this->         


        

Answer 1

Add a protocol variable to the config array and assign it the value "sendmail". The email.php file in the config folder should read as shown below. Mine works like this:

$config['protocol'] = 'sendmail';
$config['mailtype'] = 'html';
$config['charset']  = 'utf-8';
$config['newline']  = "\r\n";
