INTRODUCTION: ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ I wrote A71-Mail only for my personal use because I wasn't enough satisfyed with other web mail scripts! Now, A71-Mail is available for those who are still looking for an efficient and customizable php script in order to keep the contacts on the web with other people.

INSTALLATION: ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ NOTE: When modify a file, remember to save it as UTF-8 format! ¯¯¯¯¯ Simply you have to follow these simple steps: ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 1) Extract A71Mail.zip where you want. 2) Modify the file "userdat.php" using a text-editor. 3) Modify the file "keyword.php" using a text-editor. 4) Copy all files into the same folder on your web site. 5) Set the permissions for all files to 755. 6) Link a71mail.php in your web page. 7) Enjoy A71-Mail! 8) There is nothing else to do! NOTES: (for experts) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The following files are fully customizable so you can arrange them in order to satisfy your own graphic necessities: • userdat.php <- configuration file (ascii,utf-8) • formail.php <- mail form (html,utf-8) • confirm.php <- redirect (html,utf-8) • strg_en.php <- english strings (ascii,utf-8) • strg_it.php <- italian strings (ascii,utf-8) • strg_fr.php <- french strings (ascii,utf-8) • strg_de.php <- german strings (ascii,utf-8) • strg_es.php <- spanish strings (ascii,utf-8) • strg_sq.php <- albanian strings (ascii,utf-8) • keyword.php <- antispam keywords (ascii,utf-8) • default.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) • colored.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) • bluesky.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) • bluelit.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) • histyle.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) • opensky.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) • elegant.css <- cascading style sheet (ascii,ansi) If you want to translate A71Mail into your language simply make a copy of the file strg_en.php and translate the strings into your language but don't forget to rename your stranslated copy of strg_en.php in strg_<lang>.php where <lang> is the code lang used by the browser... for example if you are a japanese user rename your stranslated copy of the file strg_en.php in strg_ja.php and A71Mail will detect the new language automatically. You are allowed to rename and edit a71mail.php provided that the script is not redistributed modified. • a71mail.php <- main script (engine) CONFIGURATION: (userdat.php) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Warning: these variables must start with " and must end with "; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ • if the " is deleted or missed the script will fail. • if the ; is deleted or missed the script will fail. $smtp = "notset"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Optional. Put here your SMTP Server (only Hosting Windows). Example: $smtp = "smtp.yourwebsite.com"; $port = "notset"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Optional. Put here your SMTP Port (only Hosting Windows). Example: $port = "25"; $zone = "Europe/Rome"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Your TimeZone. See the list of those available on: https://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php $size = "1024"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The size of the attachment. 1024 is equal to 1 MB. 0 automatically turns off the attachments. $file = "3"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The number of attachments allowed. There is no limit for attachments! Can be 1 or 100! $chex = "on"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Set to "on" uses a filter for the attachments allowed while set to "off" ac cepts any attachments. $type = array("zip","lha","rar","txt","doc","jpg","png","gif"); ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ This is the filter for the extensions allowed for the attachments. Edit the list as you like. $text = "LTR"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The direction of text: • LTR is used for writing from left to right • RTL is used for writing from right to left $lang = "auto"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Forces your preferred language (allowed values are: "it" or "en" or "fr" or "de" or "es" or "sq" or "auto"). A71-Mail is auto-detect and so it can get the language from the visitor showing the form in the native user language (for this purpose, the browser must support this feature). If you want to enable the auto-detect feature let $lang = ""; without any value within the variable or let $lang = "auto"; This value can be overwritten by invoking the script as follow: • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?lang=it or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?lang=fr or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?lang=de or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?lang=es or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?lang=sq or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?lang=en $skin = "elegant"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Here you can choose the skin to show to visitors. At the moment there are the following skins: default, opensky, colored, bluesky, bluelit, histyle, elegant. This value can be overwritten by invoking the script as follow: • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=default or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=colored or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=bluesky or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=bluelit or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=histyle or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=opensky or • https://www.your.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?skin=elegant $path = "https://www.your.website.com/"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ When the email is sent the visitor may be redirected to a specific place of your web site. Example: • $path = "https://www.your.website.com/thanks.php"; If you like, you can use a default configuration, so that the visitor will be redirected to the root of your web site. So, if you want to enable the default configuration, let $path = ""; without any value within the varia- ble. The $path variable can be overwritten invoking the script as follow: https://www.website.com/web/a71mail.php?page=https://www.website.com/info.html or https://www.website.com/a71mail/a71mail.php?page=https://www.website.com/ $mode = "_top"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Only for expert users. Redirecting visitors to a specific place of your web site may be very hard if you have frames, so you can set a specific value in order to solve this problem. Examples: • $mode = "_top"; Overwrites all frames loading a single web page or the complete web site. • $mode = "_parent"; Overwrites the last frame loading a single web page or the complete web si- te. • $mode = "_self"; Loads a specific web page into the current frame or window. • $mode = "_blank"; Loads a specific web page into a new window. $logs = "on"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ If the variable $logs is set to "on" a log file for each email sent will be created. If the variable $logs is set to "off" no log will be created. $name = "Antonio Vivaldi"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Put into the variable $name your name and surname or firm name. $mail = "antonio.vivaldi@composer.it"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Put into the variable $mail your email address. If you want to process more email addresses as recipients add, after a comma and a blank space, the new email address so that the email form contents will be sent to the specified recipients. Example: • $mail = "your_own@email.address.com, your_friend@email.address.co.uk"; $xxcc = "notset"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Put into the variable $xxcc all the email addresses that you want to use as additional recipients (Cc). If you want to process more email addresses as additional recipients, add, after a comma and a blank space, the new email address so that the email form contents will be sent to the specified recipients. Example: • $xxcc = "your_own@email.address.com, your_friend@email.address.co.uk"; Or if you plan do not use such feature leave the variable $xxcc empty or put inside "notset". $xbcc = "notset"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Put into the variable $xbcc all the email addresses that you want to use as additional recipients (Bcc). If you want to process more email addresses as additional recipients, add, after a comma and a blank space, the new email address so that the email form contents will be sent to the specified recipients. Example: • $xbcc = "your_own@email.address.com, your_friend@email.address.co.uk"; Or if you plan do not use such feature leave the variable $xbcc empty or put inside "notset". $info = "https://whois.domaintools.com/"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ This is the default whois service but you can change it with another one. So you will be able to know more infos about the sender in case of offensive email. $goip = "https://www.geodatatool.com/?IP="; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ This is the default GeoIP service but you can change it with another one. So you will be able to know more infos about the sender. $data = "off"; ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ By setting it to "on" you will receive additional informations about the sen der while if your mail server refuses e-mails that contain links at this po- int you should set this value to "off". The default value is "off".
