PHP mail suddenly not working

[jiveturkey]

Hello All

 

I've had this script working on my website for a couple of year but the server has been upgraded to PHP5 and I can on longer send emails.

Any body got any idea why this should be

 

This code (below ) used as a test says the email has been sent but nothing appears, the SMTP value on the PHP info is localhost

<?php

//phpinfo();

 

//define the receiver of the email

$to = 'myemail@gmail.com';

//define the subject of the email

$subject = 'Test email';

//define the message to be sent. Each line should be separated with \n

$message = "Hello World!\n\nThis is my first mail.";

//define the headers we want passed. Note that they are separated with \r\n

$headers = "From: webmaster@example.com\r\nReply-To: webmaster@example.com";

//send the email

$mail_sent = @mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers );

//if the message is sent successfully print "Mail sent". Otherwise print "Mail failed"

echo $mail_sent ? "Mail sent" : "Mail failed";

?>

 

Here is the code from my page

 

 

<?php # Script 3.13 - register.php

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { // Handle the form.

$message2 = NULL; //empty new variable.

$subject = 'Email From Gallery Website'; // Subject.

$emailadd = 'myemail@gmail.com';//The email will be sent here.

$url = 'thankyou.php'; 

// Check for a name.

if (strlen($_POST['name']) > 0) {$name = TRUE;}

else {$name = FALSE;$message2 .= '<p>You forgot to enter your name!</p>';}

// Check for a username.

if (strlen($_POST['email']) > 0) {$email = TRUE;}

else {$email = FALSE;$message2 .= '<p>You forgot to enter your user name!</p>';}

// Check for an email address.

if (strlen($_POST['message']) > 0) {$message = TRUE;}

else {$message = FALSE;$message2 .= '<p>You forgot to enter your email address!</p>';}

if ($name && $email && $message) { // If everything's okay.

$messageproper =

"Name of sender: {$_POST['name']}\n" .

"Email of sender: {$_POST['email']}\n" .

"Message -------------\n\n" .

$_POST['message'] .

"\n\n------------------" ;

mail($emailadd, $subject, $messageproper, "From: {$_POST['email']}");

echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL='.$url.'">';

} else {

$message2 .= '<p>Please try again.</p>';}}?>

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">

<?php if (isset($message2)) {echo '<div id="cnt-mis">', $message2, '</div>';}?>

<div class="cnt-inn"><fieldset><legend>Your Details and Message</legend>

<div><label for="name">Name:</label><input type="text" name="name" id="name" tabindex="1" /></div>

<div><label for="email">Email Address:</label><input type="text" name="email" id="email" tabindex="2" /></div>

<div><label for="message">Message:</label><textarea id="message" name="message" tabindex="2"></textarea></div>

<input type="submit" id="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" tabindex="4" /></fieldset></div>

</form>

 

Any help appreciated

Check the server maillogs after running the script.

Is the mail server service started i.e. using sendmail: > service sendmail start
