NAME
AxKit::XSP::Sendmail - Simple SMTP mailer tag library for AxKit eXtensible Server Pages.
SYNOPSIS
Add the sendmail: namespace to your XSP <xsp:page> tag:
<xsp:page
language="Perl"
xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp/core/v1"
xmlns:sendmail="http://axkit.org/NS/xsp/sendmail/v1"
>And add this taglib to AxKit (via httpd.conf or .htaccess):
AxAddXSPTaglib AxKit::XSP::SendmailDESCRIPTION
The XSP sendmail: taglib adds a simple SMTP mailer to XSP via Milivoj Ivkovic's platform-neutral Mail::Sendmail module. In addition, all email addresses are validated before sending using Maurice Aubrey's Email::Valid package. This taglib is identical to the Cocoon taglib of the same name, albeit in a different namespace..
Tag Reference
<sendmail:send-mail>
This is the required 'wrapper' element for the sendmail taglib branch.
<sendmail:smtphost>
The this element sets the outgoing SMTP server for the current message. If omitted, the default set in Mail::Sendmail's %mailcfg hash will be used instead.
<sendmail:from>
Defines the 'From' field in the outgoing message. If omitted, this field defaults to value set in Mail::Sendmail's %mailcfg hash. Run perldoc Mall:Sendmail for more detail.
<sendmail:to>
Defines a 'To' field in the outgoing message. Multiple instances are allowed. By default this taglib will remove leading and trailing spaces from the value <sendmail:to> contains. If you need to turn this off, simply set the trim attribute to 'no'. The same can be done for all header fields.
<sendmail:cc>
Defines a 'Cc' field in the outgoing message. Multiple instances are allowed.
<sendmail:bcc>
Defines a 'Bcc' field in the outgoing message. Multiple instances are allowed.
<sendmail:subject>
Defines the subject of the message.
<sendmail:content-type>
Defines the content-type of the body of the message (default: text/plain).
<sendmail:content-transfer-encoding>
Defines the content-transfer-encoding of the body of the message. The default depends on whether you have MIME::QuotedPrint available or not. If you do, it defaults to 'quoted-printable', and if you don't to '8bit';
<sendmail:charset>
Defines the charset of the body of the message (default: utf-8). Your system's iconv implementation needs to support converting from utf-8 to that character set otherwise sending email will fail.
<sendmail:header>
Allows you to add headers to the outgoing mail with the name specified in the name attribute.
<sendmail:body>
Defines the body of the outgoing message.
<sendmail:message>
This tag is interchangable with <sendmail:body>.
EXAMPLE
my $mail_message = 'I\'m a victim of circumstance!';
<sendmail:send-mail>
<sendmail:from>curly@localhost</sendmail:from>
<sendmail:to>moe@spreadout.org</sendmail:to>
<sendmail:cc>larry@porcupine.com</sendmail:cc>
<sendmail:bcc>shemp@alsoran.net</sendmail:cc>
<sendmail:body><xsp:expr>$mail_message</xsp:expr></sendmail:body>
</sendmail:send-mail>ERRORS
When sending email fails, or an address is invalid, this taglib will throw an exception, which you can catch with the AxKit exceptions taglib.
