phpmailer reply-to not working when reply from mobile app - phpmailer

I'm using phpmailer on my ERP and the from email is a noreply# and the reply-to is my client/company email.
Everything is working, however, I noticed that when a person is replying by a mobile app the reply goes to the "from" email and not the reply-to, also, that happens to the autoresponse.
How can I solve the problem?
This is part of the code
$mail->setFrom($from, $name_from);
$mail->addAddress(getToEmail($iduser));
$mail->ClearReplyTos();
$mail->addReplyTo($reply, "Reply to " . $name_from);
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->Sender = $reply;
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->Body = $message;

one more thing, I was told that mobile clients not always download the entire email but show a button to do so. These clients cannot see "reply-to" if the mail is not fully downloaded.
I am not sure if this is fully true ...

PHPMailer - multiple emails in same Page

My PHPMailer is working perfectly but my problem is that when i receive the different emails from different personĀ“s , all the emails will be received inside the same message (because PHPMailer send emails always from 1 single email (management#gmail.com)).
Its possible to receive always emails in different messages?? Because like that its confused to manage the email.
IMAGEM_EMAIL
email2
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = 'management#gmail.com';
$mail->Password = '*********';
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->From = $_POST["email"];
$mail->FromName = $_POST["name"];
$mail->addAddress('website#gmail.com');
$mail->AddCC($_POST["email"], $_POST["name"]);
$mail->WordWrap = 50;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = $_POST["subject"];
There is two issues here:
1/ Your gmail/inbox is grouping the mails you receive from PHPMailer. And for that, there is no solution. It's what gmail/inbox do and you can't do anything about that.
2/ You want to hit "reply" to these mails and reply not to "management#gmail.com" but to your user's mail. You can add a "Reply-To" field in mails to achieve that:
$mail->addReplyTo($_POST["email"], $_POST["name"]);

PHPMailer goes to spam

I have problem with PHPMailer. Messages go to spam on o2 and Hotmail. On other servers it works well. Here is my code:
require_once('class.phpmailer.php');
require_once('class.smtp.php');
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->From = "abc#mydomain.pl";
$mail->FromName = "XYZ";
$mail->AddReplyTo('abc#mydomain.pl', 'XYZ');
$mail->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
$mail->Host = "mail.mydomain.pl";
$mail->Mailer = "smtp";
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = "abc#mydomain.pl";
$mail->Password = "password";
$mail->Port = 25;
$mail->Subject = "Subject";
$mail->Body = "Message";
$mail->AddAddress ('xxx#yyy.pl','User');
$mail->Send();
Can anyone help?
Apart from the possibility that your server may be blacklisted for some reason, the most common cause for emails landing in spam servers that i encountered is that the from-address and the server's name do not match.
Consider a from-address like someone#mydomain.com sent from a server cheapwebhosting.com, the recipient mail server sees the discrepancy and will most likely consider this a spam message.
So, you should check the message headers of a test email if something like this is happening here (or if you notice anything else that looks fishy)

from header in PHPMailer

Im using PHPMailer to send emails. Now I have a contact form and when a user fills it out I should receive an email. In the email, when I click reply I'd like to have customer email in there, however im getting my own server email. I also want the email to say 'from: customer#hisemail.com' (customer email).
I believe i have to setup headers here. However I couldn't find any info about PHPMailer headers... Maybe someone could give me an advice? Thanks!
Here is my code:
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->Sender = $email;
$mail->From = 'myemail#myserver.com';
$mail->FromName = $fullname;
$mail->MsgHTML($question);
$mail->AddAddress($mailmanager, "support");
$mail->AddReplyTo($email, $fullname);
if(!$mail->send()) { echo 'mail not sent'; }
Don't do that. It will fail to deliver on most ISPs because you are trying to forge the from address. Instead, send from your own address and add the customer's address as a reply-to address:
$mail->addReplyTo($customeremail);

List-Unsubscribe in header prevents email from being delivered to gmail

I am using phpmailer to send email.
When I add the list-unsubscribe the email gets delivered to all accounts, except gmail. It just gets dropped, it doesn't go into spam, it just never arrives at the gmail account. When I remove the list-unsubscribe, it successfully gets sent to the gmail account.
This is the list-unsubscribe that I am using:
List-Unsubscribe:<http://keepity.com>,<mailto:admin#keepity.com>
This is how its called in phpmailer:
$mail->AddCustomHeader("List-Unsubscribe:<http://keepity.com>,<mailto:admin#keepity.com>");
This is the full function that calls phpmailer. If I comment out the list-unsubscribe then the mail gets delivered to gmail account, otherwise it never arrives. Does anyone know why it would not be delivered?
static function phpmailer_sendmail($mail,$from,$fromAlias,$to,$replyTo,$replyToAlias,$subject,$html,$text) {
require_once (JPATH_COMPONENT.DS.'PHPMailer-master/class.phpmailer.php');
$mail = new PHPMailer(true); // by setting TRUE you enable exceptions
$mail->IsSMTP(true); // SMTP
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // SMTP authentication
$mail->Mailer = "smtp";
$mail->Host= "xyz"; // Amazon SES
$mail->Port = 465; // SMTP Port
$mail->Username = "xyz"; // SMTP Username
$mail->Password = "xyz"; // SMTP Password
$mail->ClearAllRecipients();
$mail->ClearAddresses();
$mail->ClearCCs();
$mail->ClearBCCs();
$mail->ClearReplyTos();
$mail->ClearAttachments();
$mail->ClearCustomHeaders();
$mail->SetFrom($from, $fromAlias);
$mail->AddReplyTo($replyTo,$replyToAlias);
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$mail->Body = $html;
$mail->AltBody = $text;
$address = $to;
$addressAlias = $to;
$mail->AddAddress($address, $addressAlias);
$mail->AddCustomHeader("List-Unsubscribe:<http://keepity.com>,<mailto:admin#keepity.com>");
$mail->Send();
}
the function addCustomHeader gets 2 arguments
and the unscribe value format should be
<email_to_unscribe#email.com>, <http://url_to_unscribe.com>
here is an example how it should be called :
$mail->addCustomHeader("List-Unsubscribe",'<admin#keepity.com>, <http://keepity.com/?email='.$address.'>');
I know this is old, but it's ranking well in Google for a search of "List-Unsubscribe" and the provided suggestion isn't quite correct.
PHPmailer addCustomHeader only takes one argument. The double quotes wrap the entire header like this.
$mail->AddCustomHeader("List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:info#example.com?subject=Unsubscribe>, <http://example.com/unsubscribe.php?mailid=1234>");
List-Unsubscribe takes 2 arguments, a mailto: and a URL that can be set up to automatically unsubscribe the email. Of course you can generate the mailid (or whatever you call the GET var) dynamically too.

PHPMailer in combination with Gmail smtp sending mail twice

I have come across some weird behaviour in PHPMailer. I am using my gmail account for the SMTP settings. But every time PHP sends an e-mail(in this case, it's for resetting a password), I receive the same e-mail too. Except for when the password reset is requested for my gmail account.
Here is the code;
//set email settings
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->IsSMTP(); // Set mailer to use SMTP
$mail->Host = 'ssl://smtp.gmail.com'; // Specify main and backup server
$mail->SMTPAuth = true; // Enable SMTP authentication
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->Username = 'mymail#gmail.com'; // SMTP username
$mail->Password = 'mypassword'; // SMTP password
$mail->From = 'noreply#bla.com';
$mail->FromName = 'Bla';
$mail->AddAddress($email); // Name is optional
$mail->IsHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = 'Bla registration';
$mail->Body ="
<html>
<header><title>Welcome to Bla</title></header>
<body>
<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Welcome to Bla. Thank you for registering an account. Before you can start inventing music, please activate your account</p>
<p><a href='http://www.bla.com/register/activate.php?activation=$activationcode&email=$email'> http://www.Bla.com/register/activate.php?activation=$activationcode&email=$email</a></p>
See you soon on Bla!
</body>
</html>";
$mail->Send();
There is no error or something like that. The e-mail is actually send, and received. Only problem is that I receive as well because the e-mail address in Username is my e-mail address. Does anyone know why this happens?
Add ClearAddresses like this->
$mail->Send();
$mail->ClearAddresses();
And solved.

Try to change
$mailer->isSMTP();
to
$mailer->Mailer = 'smtp';
