I have been using a simple php form to gather information from a user and then send the responses to me in text for using the mail() function. Lately, I have noticed that it is sometimes not sending the email to me even though the mail() function is registering success. I called yahoo (now Aabaco) and they would not help. I explained that my code ran fine for over a year without changing but it is now intermittent. They told me to contact the developer. Any ideas on how to pursue this?
The default mail() function that PHP has does not work well. Even with a good configuration, the default mail() function will fail. It’s best to move on and use PHPMailer as it will help you with your problem. They allow SMTP as well and I do believe that Yahoo supports SMTP outgoing as well.
