E-Mails Hacks

  • Hi does anybody have any idea on how to stop using the current wp_mail function and use this instead. I have no real idea to go around this?
    Assuming wordpress is installed at the root directory and your website is called thesite.com
    You go to https://www.thesite.com
    You log in to wordpress,
    You then go to https://www.thesite.com/mail
    This is NOT a wordpress page, it sees that you are logged in and then shows e-mails which have been sent to you.

    == When function is called to send e-mail ==

    So the wp_mail function needs to

    From $to find Real Name in UserTable
    From $from remove everything from and including @

    Make sure the following colums in the USerTable are set:
    EMAIL_FROM, EMAIL_SUBJECT, EMAIL_MESSAGE, EMAIL_HEADERS, EMAIL_ATTACHMENT_LOCATION.
    Make sure arrays are set in above colums, if not create new array for each.

    If array already exists:

    get value of EMAIL_FROM assign to $from-array
    get value of EMAIL_SUBJECT assign to $subject-array
    etc

    Then
    with the new message which needs to be added,
    $from-array = $from-array adding $from
    $subject-array = $subject-array adding $subject
    etc

    Then
    Post values back into database

    == On The /mail page ==
    Find out the user ID of the wordpress user currently logged in.

    get value of EMAIL_FROM assign to $from-array
    etc

    Then

    echo H1 These are you e-mails

    Then while there are more messages not yet printed

    echo H2 Subject H3 FROM
    echo p B – ATTACHMENT LOCATION DOWNLOAD LINK
    echo p B – EMAIL HEADERS
    echo p MESSAGE

    then if non left
    finish

    It seems I’m not going to be able to get round to this for a while? Could I be really naughty and ask for a complete step by step guide on how to do this? If I convert it to a plugin I will link to you! (Or if you want to create a plugin to do this I won’t complain ;P…)

    All help is very much appreciated

    Many Thanks,
