note 72249 added to ref.mail

Please note that the 'sendmail_from' parameter is used also on php running under linux, not only under Windows as stated on the documentation. Webmail services and some spam washer software kill messages without the "From" field properly set. Try the following: ini_set(sendmail_from,$fromaddress); // the INI lines are to force the From Address to be used ! mail($emailaddress, $emailsubject, $msg, $headers); ...as correctly reported by nielsvandenberge at hotmail dot com.
