Problem with mail function

[edpudol]

Hello every one.. I have a problem with my code regarding the mail function. I don't get any error but I don't get any email... Here is the code..

$msg="My message";
mail("$email","message subject",$msg,"From: phpFormGenerator");

I try this one too

$msg = "Message Here" ;

$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$headers .= "From: \"$fullname\" <emaill@email.com>\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: \"$fullname\" <email@email.com\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP's mail() Function\n";

mail("$email","subject",$msg,"$headers");

but still won't work.. but when i try to my other server the script works... both server are php script supported.

Any Idea ?

Thanks

Thanks buddy but I think... even on that post the problem does not solved. The suggested link which is http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/ . This is find may be if I am in control with my server.

So any other suggestion please.

Have you downloaded Phpmailer and tried it on your server?

but still won't work.. but when i try to my other server the script works...

What is the difference between your two servers?

Do I need the permission of the hosting admin to install the script (Phpmailer)? Thanks pal for responding

No you don't. PHPMailer contains two main php scripts: class.mailer.php and class.smtp.php. Copy these two files, along with the language folder that comes with PHPMailer to your webdirectory on the server.

Then when you want to send an email you will use code something like:

include("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->From  = "me@me.com";
$mail->FromName = "Me";
$mail->Host = "smtp.site.com";
$mail->Mailer = "smtp";

$mail->Subject = "Subject";
$mail->Body = "test email"; #HTML body
$mail->AltBody = "test email"; # Text body
$mail->AddAddress("abc@whatever.com", "John");
$mail->Send()
$mail->ClearAddresses();

Hi 9802008,

How could i put a line space on my message \r and <br> won't work...

Thanks

Thats good news!

Use \n for the text version of your message (for users who have set their email software to view emails in text format).

and use <br> for the html version of your message (for users who have set their email software to view emails in html format).
