# simple mail queue plugin #
The simpleMailQueuePlugin is a symfony plugin that provides a simple model to
which save mails to be sent by the application.
It also provides tasks that process the mail_queue table.
It requires the Zend_Mail class and works for symfony 1.2.
To configure the plugin you need this on your app.yml file:
all:
zend_lib_dir: /usr/share/php5/zf-lib-1.7
smtp:
ssl: tls
port: 587
auth: login
server: smtp.gmail.com
username: sample@gmail.com
password: secret
To add mails to the mail_queue you use the MailQueue model:
$mail = new MailQueue();
$mail->setSubject('Title for the mail');
$mail->setBody('Body for the mail');
$mail->addTo('sample@gmail.com');
$mail->addTo('another@mail.com');
$mail->save();
To send the emails you can execute the following command:
php symfony mail:send-mails 100
This task needs to be run periodically so your emails get sent, so add it to
your cron.
