I've used this script on linux/unix hosting plans before and it works fine, but it's not working for me now on a windows hosting plan.  I have a flash contact form that sends the variables to it.  Any ideas why it's not working on the windows server?

 

<?php 
$sendTo = "name@domainname.com"; 
$subject = "Website Inquiry"; 
$headers = "From: " . $_POST["name"]; 
$headers .= "<" . $_POST["email"] . ">\r\n"; 
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n"; 
$headers .= "Return-Path: " . $_POST["email"];
$messages .= "From: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
$messages .= "Email: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$messages .= "------------------------------------------" . "\r\n";
$messages .= "Message: " . $_POST["message"] . "\r\n";

mail($sendTo, $subject, $messages, $headers); 
?>

Getting closer... 

 

This test code works:

 

<?php 
$sendTo = "myName@myDomain.com"; 
$subject = "Website Inquiry"; 
$headers = "From: somebody@domain.com\nReturn-Path: somebody@domain.com\nX-Mailer: PHP/" .phpversion(); 
$messages .= "From: John Smith\r\n";
$messages .= "Email: somebody@domain.com\r\n";
$messages .= "------------------------------------------" . "\r\n";
$messages .= "Testing Form\r\n";

mail($sendTo, $subject, $messages, $headers); 
?> 

 

But this one is not (that uses the variables from the flash form).  Something is wrong with the $headers line:

 

<?php 
$sendTo = "myName@myDomain.com"; 
$subject = "Website Inquiry"; 
$headers = "From: " . $_POST["name"] . "\nReturn-Path: " . $_POST["email"] . "\nX-Mailer: PHP/" .phpversion();
$messages .= "From: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
$messages .= "Email: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$messages .= "Phone: " . $_POST["phone"] . "\r\n";
$messages .= "------------------------------------------" . "\r\n";
$messages .= "Message: " . $_POST["message"] . "\r\n";

mail($sendTo, $subject, $messages, $headers); 
?>
