The code is below

 

-------mailer.php--------

 

<?php

extract($_POST);

 

if (!file_exists("config.php"))

{

$host = $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST ];

$path = pathinfo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

$file_path = $path['dirname'];

print "<h1>Error With Script</h1>

<h2>There is a problem with your PHP mailer script installation</h2>

<p>The config.php file seems to be missing!</p>

<p>For this script to work, you need to upload the config.php file that came with the download of the BELLonline <a href=\"http://www.bellonline.co.uk/web-services/free/scripts/php-mailer-script/\">PHP mailer script</a>.</p>

<p>The file must be in the following directory of your website:</p>

I dont think there is anything wrong with the code, as it is working on localhost, and i am receiving mail. Once i upload it to my web based server and run it php, the email says it is sent but i dont receive any email.

 

Any ideas as to the problem?
