don't you need it to be SELECT login, password.......
lowercase first letter? - if you're comparing the columns user.login and
user.password.

=Please check the archives for advice about checking the result of every
mysql_...() call. It's much better to
know/be told by PHP/MySQL than to say "I thought that...I expected to ..."
=the $query assignment statement contains multiple double-quotes. These
cannot be 'nested'. Use a mixture of
single and double-quotes or 'escape' the inner set(s).
=also (and this may be a function of our email packages not a PHP thing) are
those single quotes around user?
