can anyone help me integrate emailing into my script?

I made the script in PHP that'll tell me whether the IP in question is in any of spamhaus' blacklists

Is it possible for me to make it so that if I'm listed that it'll send an email?

The mail function is the easiest method. If you want better options though SMTP isn't hard to add with some easy options out there to implement.


mail() = http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

You have a very strange check in place.

You are converting an array to a JSON string just to check a strpos.  Why not check if a key exists in the array?

Edit:  It looks like an empty array will be returned if the DNS server returns NXDOMAIN.  So better yet, you could do:



if (count(dns_get_record($ipordomain . ".zen.spamhaus.org")))
But you would need to reverse the ip for the DNS lookup.

Here's a simple alternative:
 


<?php

$IP = $_REQUEST['IP'];
$reverse_ip = implode(".",array_reverse(explode(".",$IP)));

$RBL = "zen.spamhaus.org"; // Set your RBL here

if(checkdnsrr($reverse_ip.".".$RBL.".","A")) { // IP is listed
// Do stuff here
// Here you can also handle the return codes if you wish to know exactly what the IP is listed for
// As explained here: http://www.spamhaus.org/news/article/713/changes-in-spamhaus-dbl-dnsbl-return-codes
$return_code = gethostbyname($reverse_ip.".".$RBL.".");
}
else { // IP is not listed
// Do other stuff here
}

?>

I hope this helps you out.

I tried the mail function, it didn't work sadly

Thanks for the code, I'm lousy at PHP so my coding practices are usually crap
