I created the following email program from a email function that I know works in another program. When I create a simple form page listed below and submit it. It echos the $email and the $username and it writes it to the page. So it is finding the variables within the transfering url in the form of a post. It doesn't give me an error message but I don't get an email? Should the Linux server not be executing the mail() function? What the beep!??????? Again thanks in advance for any help.

Try hardcoding the email, i've seen this problem more on this list.Try the code below and see if it solves your problem. Tijnema <?php $email = strtolower($email); echo "$email, $username"; function sendEmail($email, $username) { $mailTo = "$username <$email>"; $mailSubject = "Your registration confirmation..."; $mailBody = "Dear $name,\n\nYour details have been added to my email list.\n\n To unsubscribe click on the link below\nhttp://www.sitename.com/mail.php?action=unsubscribe&email=$email"; mail("myemail@domain.com", "Registration Confirmation", $mailBody, "From: \r\n" ."Reply-To: \r\n" ."X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion()); } ?>
