Im having a problem with my form mail on my websites. Now the problem I have only happens with sites that I upload to my hosting accounts with Host gator. The mail will only deliver to the domain email address it wont deliver to gmail or yahoo or any other email address. I tested the script on an old domain with an Irish hosting account and it works perfectly it delivers to gmail and yahoo and my domain email account. Ive been pulling my hair out talking to Hostgator staff all weekend they keep blaming gmail and yahoo and insist the problem is not on there end. Anyway I was wondering is there anything I can add to my PHP script to make sure it delivers to gmail and yahoo or is there anything wrong with my script as hostgator are saying. Maybe there is a security issue or something Im very new to php so i could be missing something simple.
Thanks for the Help
