-<h1>Email Class</h1>
-
-<p>CodeIgniter's robust Email Class supports the following features:</p>
-
-
-<ul>
-<li>Multiple Protocols: Mail, Sendmail, and SMTP</li>
-<li>Multiple recipients</li>
-<li>CC and BCCs</li>
-<li>HTML or Plaintext email</li>
-<li>Attachments</li>
-<li>Word wrapping</li>
-<li>Priorities</li>
-<li>BCC Batch Mode, enabling large email lists to be broken into small BCC batches.</li>
-<li>Email Debugging tools</li>
-</ul>
-
-
-<h2>Sending Email</h2>
-
-<p>Sending email is not only simple, but you can configure it on the fly or set your preferences in a config file.</p>
-
-<p>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 href="../general/controllers.html">controllers</a>.</p>
-
-<code>$this->load->library('email');<br />
-<br />
-$this->email->from('your@your-site.com', 'Your Name');<br />
-$this->email->to('someone@example.com'); <br />
-$this->email->cc('another@another-example.com'); <br />
-$this->email->bcc('them@their-example.com'); <br />
-<br />
-$this->email->subject('Email Test');<br />
-$this->email->message('Testing the email class.'); <br />
-<br />
-$this->email->send();<br />
-<br />
-echo $this->email->print_debugger();</code>
-
-
-
-
-<h2>Setting Email Preferences</h2>
-
-<p>There are 17 different preferences available to tailor how your email messages are sent. You can either set them manually
-as described here, or automatically via preferences stored in your config file, described below:</p>
-
-<p>Preferences are set by passing an array of preference values to the email <dfn>initialize</dfn> function. Here is an example of how you might set some preferences:</p>
-
-<code>$config['protocol'] = 'sendmail';<br />
-$config['mailpath'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';<br />
-$config['charset'] = 'iso-8859-1';<br />
-$config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;<br />
-<br />
-$this->email->initialize($config);</code>
-
-<p><strong>Note:</strong> Most of the preferences have default values that will be used if you do not set them.</p
-
-><h3>Setting Email Preferences in a Config File</h3>
-
-<p>If you prefer not to set preferences using the above method, you can instead put them into a config file.
-Simply create a new file called the <var>Email.php</var>, add the <var>$config</var>
-array in that file. Then save the file at <var>config/Email.php</var> and it will be used automatically. You
-will NOT need to use the <dfn>$this->email->initialize()</dfn> function if you save your preferences in a config file.</p>
-
-
-
-
-<h2>Email Preferences</h2>
-
-<p>The following is a list of all the preferences that can be set when sending email.</p>

-<h2>Email Function Reference</h2>
-
-<h3>$this->email->from()</h3>
-<p>Sets the email address and name of the person sending the email:</p>
-<code>$this->email->from('<var>you@your-site.com</var>', '<var>Your Name</var>');</code>
-
-<h3>$this->email->reply_to()</h3>
-<p>Sets the reply-to address. If the information is not provided the information in the "from" function is used. Example:</p>
-<code>$this->email->reply_to('<var>you@your-site.com</var>', '<var>Your Name</var>');</code>
-
-
-<h3>$this->email->to()</h3>
-<p>Sets the email address(s) of the recipient(s). Can be a single email, a comma-delimited list or an array:</p>
-
-<code>$this->email->to('<var>someone@example.com</var>');</code>
-<code>$this->email->to('<var>one@example.com</var>, <var>two@example.com</var>, <var>three@example.com</var>');</code>
-
-<code>$list = array('<var>one@example.com</var>', '<var>two@example.com</var>', '<var>three@example.com</var>');<br />
-<br />
-$this->email->to(<var>$list</var>);</code>
-
-<h3>$this->email->cc()</h3>
-<p>Sets the CC email address(s). Just like the "to", can be a single email, a comma-delimited list or an array.</p>
-
-<h3>$this->email->bcc()</h3>
-<p>Sets the BCC email address(s). Just like the "to", can be a single email, a comma-delimited list or an array.</p>
-
-
-<h3>$this->email->subject()</h3>
-<p>Sets the email subject:</p>
-<code>$this->email->subject('<var>This is my subject</var>');</code>
-
-<h3>$this->email->message()</h3>
-<p>Sets the email message body:</p>
-<code>$this->email->message('<var>This is my message</var>');</code>
-
-<h3>$this->email->set_alt_message()</h3>
-<p>Sets the alternative email message body:</p>
-<code>$this->email->set_alt_message('<var>This is the alternative message</var>');</code>
-
-<p>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.</p>
-
-
-
-<h3>$this->email->clear()</h3>
-<p>Initializes all the email variables to an empty state. This function is intended for use if you run the email sending function
-in a loop, permitting the data to be reset between cycles.</p>
-<code>foreach ($list as $name => $address)<br />
-{<br />
- $this->email->clear();<br /><br />
-
- $this->email->to($address);<br />
- $this->email->from('your@your-site.com');<br />
- $this->email->subject('Here is your info '.$name);<br />
- $this->email->message('Hi '.$name.' Here is the info you requested.');<br />
- $this->email->send();<br />
-}</code>
-
-<p>If you set the parameter to TRUE any attachments will be cleared as well:</p>
-
-<code>$this->email->clear(TRUE);</code>
-
-
-<h3>$this->email->send()</h3>
-<p>The Email sending function. Returns boolean TRUE or FALSE based on success or failure, enabling it to be used
-conditionally:</p>
-
-<code>if ( ! $this->email->send())<br />
-{<br />
- // Generate error<br />
-}</code>
-
-
-<h3>$this->email->attach()</h3>
-<p>Enables you to send an attachment. Put the file path/name in the first parameter. Note: Use a file path, not a URL.
-For multiple attachments use the function multiple times. For example:</p>
-
-<code>$this->email->attach('/path/to/photo1.jpg');<br />
-$this->email->attach('/path/to/photo2.jpg');<br />
-$this->email->attach('/path/to/photo3.jpg');<br />
-<br />
-$this->email->send();</code>
-
-
-<h3>$this->email->print_debugger()</h3>
-<p>Returns a string containing any server messages, the email headers, and the email messsage. Useful for debugging.</p>
-
-
-<h2>Overriding Word Wrapping</h2>
-
-<p>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:</p>
-
-<code>The text of your email that<br />
-gets wrapped normally.<br />
-<br />
-<var>{unwrap}</var>http://www.example.com/a_long_link_that_should_not_be_wrapped.html<var>{/unwrap}</var><br />
-<br />
-More text that will be<br />
-wrapped normally.</code>
-
-<p>Place the item you do not want word-wrapped between: <var>{unwrap}</var> <var>{/unwrap}</var></p>

<h3>$this->email->send()</h3>
<p>The Email sending function. Returns boolean TRUE or FALSE based on success or failure, enabling it to be used

$this->email->attach('/path/to/photo2.jpg');<br />
$this->email->attach('/path/to/photo3.jpg');<br />

$this->email->send();</code>

<h2>Overriding Word Wrapping</h2>
<p>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:</p>
<code>The text of your email that<br />
gets wrapped normally.<br />
<br />
<var>{unwrap}</var>http://www.example.com/a_long_link_that_should_not_be_wrapped.html<var>{/unwrap}</var><br />
<br />
More text that will be<br />
wrapped normally.</code>
<p>Place the item you do not want word-wrapped between: <var>{unwrap}</var> <var>{/unwrap}</var></p>
