Full Version: Setting e-mails to plaintext.
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Whenever myBB sends an e-mail to my users, it all appears as one garbled mess with no line breaks or other formatting. I assume this is because the e-mails are written in plaintext but are being sent as HTML. How can I set MyBB to send these e-mails as properly formatted plaintext?
As far as I am aware, all MyBB emails are sent as plain text already.

When I formatted my e-mails in HTML from the Admin CP, they were properly formatted when I received them, so obviously my MyBB is sending e-mails as HTML.
functions.php - Line 356:
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"{$charset}\"\n";

Looks like plain text to me. Check yours.

EDIT: Found it, checking now.

Yes, it looks the same as yours ... but my e-mails are being sent as HTML ...

I had to have it modified to work with SMTP auth, maybe that's the issue here.

EDIT: http://community.mybboard.net/showthread.php?tid=24580 This is what I am using.
Maybe, what does this "class.phpmailer.php" that it uses send the mail as?

I have no idea ... my host did this for me, so I'll try and find out. I have no idea where class.phpmailer.php would be.
