going mail() problems.

[otuatail]

Hi.

The code I have been using for 10 years has stopped again. I believe this is a configuration problem with my web host. The code was working up to yesterday and other parts of the website have similar code that has stopped. Is there any way I can use some sort of ini set to overcome this. I was hoping to demo a website today and now this.


I even have a test mail() with default fixed values that should also work. Here is the code complete with what was echo(d) back.


Any help would be really appreciated here. I am desperate to get this email working again.


***

/*

$emailList = "";

$qCustomers = GetCustomers($_SESSION['MySQLEmail']);

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($qCustomers))

{

	$emailList .= $row['Email'] . ",";

}

$emailList = trim($emailList, ",");

echo $_SESSION['MySQLEmail'] . "<br>";

echo "$emailList<br><br>";

*/

$emailList = "paulotuatail@aol.com,desotuatail@aol.com,otuatail@aol.com";


$site ="mysight";

$webemail = $site . "@desmond-otoole.co.uk";

$headers = "From: $site <$webemail>\r\n";

$success = mail($emailList,$subject, $msg, $headers, '-froot@desmond-otoole.co.uk'); // must comply with » RFC 2822.


echo "Success1: " . $success . "<br>List: " . $emailList . "<br>Subject: " . $subject . "<br>Site: " . $site . "<br>webemail: " . $webemail . "<br>headers: " . $headers . "<br><br>";


/* result of above echo 

Success1: 1

List: paulotuatail@aol.com,desotuatail@aol.com,otuatail@aol.com

Subject: Happy christmas from everyone here at Millers Yard

Site: mysight

webemail: mysight@desmond-otoole.co.uk

headers: From: mysight 

*/


// test using fixed text values This also failes ***

$success = mail("paulotuatail@aol.com,desotuatail@aol.com,otuatail@aol.com","My Subject", "My Message", "From: $site <mysight@desmond-otoole.co.uk>\r\n", '-froot@desmond-otoole.co.uk'); // must comply with » RFC 2822.

Any error messages displayed? What do the server logs say?

 

Unless this is a development server, only change this temporarily. Open php.ini and look for display_errors = and make sure it = On and restart the web service.

 

If you're using apache you'll also want to have a look at /var/logs/apache2/error.log it maybe logging to another location all depends on the web server itself.
