russia5 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hello, My MIME code seems not to send anything out. The script is loaded on www.mysite.com/mime.php When I put my test email into $to I get the folloing message printed back to www.mysite.com/mime.php: The email to [email protected] from [email protected] was successfully sent However, I do not get an email in my [email protected] box.Does anyone know why?Here is mime.php[code] <?php $to = "[email protected]"; $from = "[email protected]"; $subject = "This is a test email"; $message = <<<EOF <html> <body bgcolor="#ffffff"> <p align="center"> <b>Hello World!</b> </p> </body> </html>EOF;$headers = "From: $from\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html\r\n"; $success = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); if ($success) { echo "The email to $to from $from was successfully sent"; } else { echo "An error occurred when sending the email to $to from $from"; }?> [/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/20387-my-mime-does-not-send/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ober Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Your server or hosting by someone else? Is the mail server installed and working?Is that an exact copy of your code? I think you may have the email address spelled wrong. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/20387-my-mime-does-not-send/#findComment-89865 Share on other sites More sharing options...
russia5 Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 No... its not my email server. My hosting company is a very good company and my webemail works from my client. I did not use the email in the posted example. I am sure I used the right one.

ober Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Ok, so you're using something similar to what is in the example. It says it is being sent, but you're not getting it.The only thing I can conclude is that something is messed up in the configuration (no matter how "good" of a company it is that you are using) or that your email address isn't right or you're somehow blocking it. Have you checked your spam mail? Do you have spam-assassin enabled or something? It's probably not handling the "from" portion right and your spam blocker isn't picking it up.Also, your webmail from your host probably doesn't use the same setup.

russia5 Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 Thankyou very Much! It was my aol client. For some reason, it did not come into the client or into the spam. (which has me a bit concerned) However, it did come into my site's webmail.

roopurt18 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Most of the time e-mail is almost instantaenous. Sometimes it gets delayed for a bit though. I wouldn't be surprised if you logged into AOL tomorrow and had several e-mails.
