Is it recommended to store the complete email in a database and delete it from the server to avoid header disappearance in PHP?

When emails are stored in a database, the complete email content including headers can be saved to prevent header disappearance. To avoid header loss in PHP, you can retrieve the email using a library like PHPMailer, store the complete email in a database, and then delete it from the server to ensure all headers are preserved. 

// Retrieve email using PHPMailer
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer;
use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\Exception;

$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->Host = 'your_mail_server';
$mail->Username = 'your_username';
$mail->Password = 'your_password';
$mail->Port = 587;

// Store email in database
$email_content = $mail->getSentMIMEMessage();
// Save $email_content to database

// Delete email from server
$mail->delete();
