////////////// START PHP

<?

class swxSimpleMail {

    /**
     * Take input fields and mail them. Returns an error if email is not
valid
     *
     * @param string fname

     * @param string $phone_num
     * @param string $comments
     * @param string $user_email
     * @param string $sender_email Who you want the email to be from

     * @return mixed
     **/
    public function sendMail($fname, $lname, $phone_num, $comments,
$user_email, $sender_email) {
        if ($this->_validateEmail($user_email) == false) {
            return -1;
        }

        $body="<b>First Name: </b>".$fname."<br />"
             ."<b>Last Name: </b>".$lname."<br />"
             ."<b>Email Address: </b>".$user_email."<br />"
             ."<b>Phone Number: </b>".$phone_num."<br />"
             ."<b>Comments: </b><br />".$comments."<br />";

        $headers = "From: ".$sender_email." \r\n";
        $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 ";
        $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0 ";

        mail($sender_email, "Contact form message", $body, $headers);

        return 1;

    }

    private function _validateEmail($email) {
        $pattern =
'/^(([^\\.,;:\s@\"<>()[\]]+(\.[^\\.,;:\s@\"<>()[\]]+)*)|(\".+\"))@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})$/i';

        if ( ! preg_match($pattern, $email) ) {
            return false;
        }

        return true;
    }
}

?>

////////////////////// END PHP

I would of never thought about the ability for others to use it for spam
purposes. Thanks for the help guys!
