 $headers .= From: $emailfrom\n;

 $mailsent = mail($emailto, $subject, $msg, $headers,-f . $emailfrom);
 
 1) Use the proper delimiters between headers -- \r\n
 2) Check your mailserver logs
 
3) The From address may cause the mesage to be rejected if it does not have
the same domain as the mailserver.

I believe the headers have to end with a blank line? If I remeber
correctly, the last line in the $headers should have two new lines like

$headers .= From: $emailfrom\n\n;

No, the mail() function will automatically take care of the separation of the 
mail headers and the mail body.

mail() will take care of that.

You might want to use \r\n instead of just \n, as that's what it's
technically supposed to be -- Though I think it works just fine on
Un*x-like boxes to use just \n...

You might want to add Reply-to: as well as From with the same setting to
keep more email clients happy.

[PHP] mail problem at interland

2005-01-27 Thread David Edwards
Hi,

I have a fairly simple script written that uses the mail() function on a 
client site hosted at Interland. I have used a similar script quite a few 
times before with no problem. However although the script generates no 
errors, no emails appear at their intended destination. Interland support 
has not been that helpful and they did suggest I try the '-f' option in the 
header. That did not work either. Has anyone seen this before, I am running 
out of ideas. The mail portion of the script is below:

$headers .= MIME-Version: 1.0\n;
$headers .= Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n;
$headers .= X-Priority: 1\n;
$headers .= X-MSMail-Priority: High\n;
$headers .= X-Mailer: php\n;
$headers .= From: $emailfrom\n;

$mailsent = mail($emailto, $subject, $msg, $headers,-f . $emailfrom);

Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
