I believe one looks in the manual?

I think “Setting Email Preferences” is what you are looking for, or have I misunderstood?

Problem with your query? Did you run

$this->db->last_query(); 

before you came to the forums for help?

Can you explain further? I don’t see how one sets the message headers.

If you need to set your own headers please read the following!

Yes, but does that work for emails? If so, how does one do that?

The Email Library sends it’s own headers!

You do need o set the config values for it.

Best place to learn is look at the Email class php file.

The userguide doesn’t mention anything about email headers. But I will have a look at the class file itself.

I know it’s a ways back now, but wondering if anyone has made any progress on this, looks like I’ll need to extend the core, or am I missing something?

Here, maybe of value for someone… very simple though…

Place in application/libraries/MY_Email.php

<?php  if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class MY_Email extends CI_Email {
 
 public function set_custom_header($header_name='', $header_value = '')
 {
  if($header_name=='') {
   return FALSE;
  }

  $this->_set_header($header_name, $header_value);

  return $this;
 }

}

} 

Thanks. Just realized all my HTML emails were getting destroyed because they weren’t quoted-printable encoded

$this->load->library('email');
    $this->email->from('email@email.com', 'Ben Igniter');
    $this->email->to($_POST['email']);
    $this->email->subject('CodeIgniter');
    $this->email->message('Sending a test email');
    $this->email->send();
