am using the following code to send form content to my email address. I am having problems with spam. What can I do to fix this problem. Any code would be very helpful. I am new to PHP

 

<?php

 

$msg = "My Website Online Contact Submission\n";

 

$msg .= "Name: $name\n";

$msg .= "Comments: $emailAddress\n\n";

$msg .= "Comments: $phone\n\n";

$msg .= "Comments: $message\n\n";

 

 

 

 

 

$to = "[email protected]";

$subject = "CONTACT FROM WEBSITE";

$mailheaders = "From: Website Submission Form <$emailAddress>\n";

$mailheaders .= "Reply-To:$Email_Address <$emailAddress>\n\n";

// Mail to address

mail ( $to, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders );

 

?>

What kind of spam do you get just invalid email addresses:

function valid_email ($email)
{
  // First, we check that there's one @ symbol, and that the lengths are right
  if (!ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,255}$", $email))
   {
    // Email invalid because wrong number of characters in one section, or wrong number of @ symbols.
    return false;
   }

  // Split it into sections to make life easier
  $email_array = explode("@", $email);
  $local_array = explode(".", $email_array[0]);

  for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($local_array); $i++)
   {
    if (!ereg(
                 "^(([A-Za-z0-9!#$%&#038;'*+/=?^_`{|}~-][A-Za-z0-9!#$%&#038;'*+/=?^_`{|}~\.-]{0,63})|(\"[^(\\|\")]{0,62}\"))$",
                 $local_array[$i]))
     {
      return false;
     }
   }

  if (!ereg("^\[?[0-9\.]+\]?$", $email_array[1]))
   { // Check if domain is IP. If not, it should be valid domain name
    $domain_array = explode(".", $email_array[1]);

    if (sizeof($domain_array) < 2)
     {
      return false; // Not enough parts to domain
     }

    for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($domain_array); $i++)
     {
      if (!ereg("^(([A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9-]{0,61}[A-Za-z0-9])|([A-Za-z0-9]+))$", $domain_array[$i]))
       {
        return false;
       }
     }
   }

  return true;
}
if (!valid_email($_POST['email']))
   {
    print "<center><div class=error>Sorry, the email is invalid.</div></font>";
   }
