I had trouble sending emails with mail()function some peple would get the emails then other would not, I had partialy solved this problem (see my post above) with avoiding mail function. It solved the problem but still for example hotmail would only get 3/10 sometimes 0/10 messages, I have now compleately solved this problem by adding ALL REQIRED headers and changing the sendmail path with envelope matching address ...... ini_set(sendmail_path, "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f webmaster@domain.com"); //Contents of an Registration Auto responce email(text format) $message = "Thanks for registering".$userName; $headers .= "From: Name<webmaster@domain.com>\n"; $headers .= "Reply-To: <webmaster@domain.com>\n"; $headers .= "X-Sender: <webmaster@domain.com>\n"; $headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP4\n"; //mailer $headers .= "X-Priority: 3\n"; //1 UrgentMessage, 3 Normal $headers .= "Return-Path: <webmaster@domain.com>\n"; mail($email,"Registration COnfirmation",wordwrap(stripslashes($message)),$headers); //Uncomment this to send html format //$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n"; //$headers .= "cc: birthdayarchive@php.net\n"; // CC to //$headers .= "bcc: mail@server.com"; // BCCs to, separete multiple with commas mail@mail.com, mail2@mail.com -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+25627 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+25627 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+25627
