        <td style="text-align: center;font-family: Tahoma;    font-size: small;    direction: rtl;    background-color: #66CCFF;">%title%</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td style="text-align: right;font-family: Tahoma;    font-size: small;">%text%</td>
    </tr>
</table>
</center>
        ';
        
        $msg = str_replace('%text%',$this->UTF_to_Unicode('سلام '),$msg);
        $msg = str_replace('%title%',$this->UTF_to_Unicode('عنوان'),$msg);
        $this->email->clear();
        $this->email->from('test@example.com', 'تست ');
        $this->email->to('my_email@yahoo.com');        
        $this->email->subject('سلام');
        $this->email->message($msg);
        
        $this->email->send();

Just to rule out the obvious, have you checked you spam filter? And you can try:

$this->email->send();
echo $this->email->print_debugger(); 

This may print something useful. Since some servers are wanting more information in the email header for validation.

Wonder if your ip address you maybe sending from maybe black(grey)listed. Do you have any other location you could send from? Doing some googling yields some results with yahoo being picky about html only. What happens if you try sending using smtp?

i sent from 2 ip addresses in Iran & Netherlands but i think ip address is not my problem because Yahoo receives my email and shows subject of my email and ... but only didn’t shows message body .
about smtp ? i didn’t realize you . can you please explian more about ?
i am using “Best SMTP Server” program in localhost to send email via localhost ? do you have any other idea ?

Best Wishes
Ali

Ah, different issue. I was reading “email message not received” that it never shows up in yahoo mail at all. If you are missing the message body, I would guess it to be some encoding issue. Since you are currently trying to send a ‘html’ type, try $config[‘text’].

Out of curiosity, if you are sending via localhost smtp server, why have you used sendmail in your configuration?

Just double checked your message source. You don’t have a valid html source. Try this:

$msg= '
<html>
<head><title>Your title</title></head>
<body>
  <center>
  <table style="width: 80% ;border: 1px solid #3399FF;">
      <tr>
          <td style="text-align: center;font-family: Tahoma;    font-size: small;    direction: rtl;    background-color: #66CCFF;">%title%</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
          <td style="text-align: right;font-family: Tahoma;    font-size: small;">%text%</td>
      </tr>
  </table>
  </center>
</body>
</html>

now yahoo don’t receives even my email !! i don’t know what is my problem , but i think it’s for sending from localhost and another problem was in my html code that was not valid html ( Thanks for sending valid html of message body ) . i think your html code working fine now in yahoo . out of this discussion , how can i send email from localhost without other programs like “Best SMTP Server” which i am using ? i am using xampp .

Thanks a lot for your answers

Glad you are on the right track. Several ISPs allow you to send if you have an email address setup. You would use the same settings for an email client (email address, password, mail server).

Example:

$config['smtp_host'] = 'mail.myisp.com';
$config['smtp_user'] = 'me@myisp.com';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'password';
$config['smpt_port'] = '25';
$config['protocol']  = 'smtp'; 

If you don’t have an email address setup with your ISP, and use gmail, you can send via smtp with your gmail account.

$config['protocol']  = 'smtp';
$config['smtp_host'] = 'ssl://smtp.googlemail.com';
$config['smtp_port'] = '465';
$config['smtp_timeout'] = '30';
$config['smtp_user'] = 'me@gmail.com';
$config['smtp_pass'] = 'password';
$config['charset']  = 'utf-8';
$config['newline']  = "\r\n"; 

I use both locally on Windows using Wamp.
