Mail function problems

[poison6feet]

Hi Guys,

Recently I have moved my website from VPS to hosting only and I am unable to figure why email is not going out.

I have a code, when user gets registered, system will send automatic email with all the details.

 

Registration part

 

if($database->addNewUser($subuser, md5($subpass), $subname, $subemail)){

    if(EMAIL_WELCOME){

      $mailer->sendWelcome($subname, $subuser,$subemail,$subpass, EMAIL_FROM_ADDR);

    }

 

When I echo message before and after calling the sednWelcome function, Its displaying the message but I am not sure why it is not entering in the mailer.php

 

mailer.php

 

  function sendWelcome($name, $user, $email, $pass, $from){

  require_once "Mail.php";

 

      $subject = "Welcome!";

      $body = $name.",\n\n"

            ."Welcome! You've just registered at Imitigence Site "

            ."with the following information:\n\n"

            ."Body Message xxxxx"

            ."- Administrator,\n"

            ."Imitigence.";

      $to = $email;

      $host = "host";

 

$username = "xxxxxxxx";

$password = "xxxxxxxx";

$headers = array ('From' => $from,'To' => $to,'Subject' => $subject);

 

$smtp = Mail::factory('smtp', array ('host' => $host,'auth' => true,'username' => $username,'password' =>

 

$password));

$mail = $smtp->send($to, $headers, $body);

 

 

  }

last time i had a problem it was becuase my new server required the 5th parameter to the mail function... check it out here http://au2.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

5th parameters or 4 parameters, however in the mentioned url the fifth parameter is optional, I am not sure, I have raised the ticket with the hosting company and they said that will look in to the email logs and come back with some advise. 

Thanks

5th parameter, optional by PHP but not always optional by the server,, well thats what my hosting company told me...
