Create and Send Email

This is actually the codeigniter email library. I have added this to the codeigniter forum as well.

$this->load->library('encrypt');
		$this->load->library('email');

		//-- setup request
		$request_array = array($user->generate_reset_key(), $user->id, $user->email, time());
		$request_string = implode($this->_request_delimiter, $request_array);
		$encoded_request = base64url_encode( $this->encrypt->encode($request_string) );

		//send the email
		$this->email->initialize(array('mailtype' => 'html'));

		$this->email->from($this->config->item('from_noreply'), $this->config->item('website_name'));
		$this->email->to($user->email); 

		$this->email->subject($this->config->item('website_name').' Password Reset Request');
		$view_data = array(
			'email'  => $user->email,
			'request'   => $encoded_request,
			'lang'	=> $user->language
		);
		$message = $this->load->view('_emails/reset_password', $view_data, TRUE);
		$this->email->message($message);
                
                if($this->email->send())
		{
			return true;
		}
		else{
			log_message('ERROR', __CLASS__.'->'.__FUNCTION__.' failed to send reset request email to '.$user->email);
		}

		return false;
