Hi all,

I have a simple(?) problem with my contact form. It used to work on another server and with an older PHP version but currently I can not get my contact form to send out email.

mail() always return false.

I have changed the sript from the old extract($_REQUEST); to
extract($_POST);
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email= $_POST['email'];
and so on.

Then, at the end when I do
mail("info@mydomain.com", "Product-Inquiry", "$message", "From:$email");
it never works.

What else do I have to configure on the server (PHP is active, of course) or where can I look for further diagnostics.

Sorry, if this question is a bit silly, but I am in a rush and need to fix this quickly.

THANKS for your help in advance, greatly appreciated
Thomas

Do you get any error message from your script?

Hi Eric,

none on the site and nothing in errors.txt on the server....Where else can I look?

Thanks,

I got this from the PHP.net website, and adapted it a bit to hopefully suit you better:

PHP Code:

<?php
$to      = 'info@mydomain.com';
$subject = 'Product Enquiry';
// the message for some reason is not allowed more then 70 characters per line. 
// using the wordwrap function clears this issue
$message = wordwrap($_POST['message'], 70);
$headers = 'From: '.$_POST['name'].' <'.$_POST['email'].'>' . "\r\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

Maybe this solves the problem?

Make sure you are using full <?php tag and not <?

This was something that happened to a few of my sites when php was upped from 4 to 5.
