I was having this same problem a few weeks ago and ended up giving up. After reading the response about the headers i decided to try it.
If i call this it works: mail($recipient, $subject); If i call this is gets the server error msg: mail($recipient, $subject, $headers); In that case their are like 10 headers but none of them are ended properly with CRLF. Hope this helps -Jared -----Original Message----- From: Paul Cuthbertson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 11:49 AM To: Tyler Longren; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Server error when executing mail() function Firstly, thank you for the continued help. Unfortunately I just tried this: <? mail ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Test", "Testing"); ?> ..and the error still occurred. The error appears immediately, as if it's not even trying to connect to anything.
