<?php
session_start();  // Start Session
session_register("session");
// This is displayed if all the fields are not filled in
$empty_fields_message = "<p>Please go back and complete all the fields in the form.</p>Click <a class=\"two\" href=\"javascript:history.go(-1)\">here</a> to go back";
// Convert to simple variables  
$email = $_POST['email'];
if (!isset($_POST['email'])) {
?>

no for some reason if i change:

 

mail($email, $subject, $message, "From: yoursite.com Webmaster<[email protected]>\n

 

to

 

mail($email, $subject, $message, "From: myreeftests.com Webmaster<[email protected]>\n

 

the mail doesnt get sent, but if i leave it at the default it sends but the headers are obviously wrong..? its VERY odd..
