Has anyone been able to successfully send a text message using php and the
mail function?
It works fine if I open up thunderbird and send a message to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] but if I use the mail function:
mail([EMAIL PROTECTED], test, test);
It doesn't work. I've tried several different
I'm guessing the SMS system is rejecting the email because it's lacking some
headers that mail programs tend to use... and spammers sometimes forget.
You might send your email from Thunderbird.. CC yourself on it. Verify that it
went through as a text message, then open the CC'd copy and look
Maybe phpMailer isn't sending the correct headers either. Sometimes all it
takes is one missing header that a system is looking for and it may filter it
as spam or something.
Again, I encourage you to examine the headers from your Thunderbird good
email and compare it to your PHP and/or
also consider that there maybe a reverse lookup being done on the sending MTA
that the sms gateway doesn't consider kosher .. and/or that the IP of the
sending MTA is grey-listed/black-listed.
also a check may be being done to see if the sender's account exists
on the sender's [your servers]
Thanks for all the insights. It appears that it might have thought my email
was spam as I sent it from another server and it worked fine.
Thanks!

which makes it even more likely that the 'bad' server doesn't have it's
