## Capítulo 9. Zend_Mail

## 9.1. Introduction

`Zend_Mail` provides generalized functionality to compose and send both text and MIME-compliant multipart e-mail messages. Mail can be sent with `Zend_Mail` via the php built-in `mail()` function or via direct SMTP connection.

Exemplo 9.1. Simple E-Mail with Zend_Mail

A simple e-mail consists of some recipients, a subject, a body and a sender. To send such a mail using the PHP `mail()` function, do the following:

    <?php
    require_once 'Zend/Mail.php';
    $mail = new Zend_Mail();
    $mail->setBodyText('This is the text of the mail.');
    $mail->setFrom('somebody@example.com', 'Some Sender');
    $mail->addTo('somebody_else@example.com', 'Some Recipient');
    $mail->setSubject('TestSubject');
    $mail->send();
    ?>

| Nota
In order to send an e-mail with `Zend_Mail` you have to specify at least one recipient, a sender (e.g., with `setFrom()`), and a message body (text and/or HTML).

For most mail attributes there are "get" methods to read the information stored in the mail object. For further details, please refer to the API documentation. A special one is `getRecipients()`. It returns an array with all recipient e-mail addresses that were added prior to the method call.

For security reasons, `Zend_Mail` filters all header fields to prevent header injection with newline (`\n`) characters.
