Hello,

I just moved my website to Network Solutions (NSI).
It seems like the php mail() function is not enabled.

When I try to send email with this function, the recipient receives nothing, and the function returns true.

I have been trying a lot and it's not working. But - and it's very strange - this function has worked at least one time (the recipient received one email).

I contacted NSI by phone. I did not understand they answer (I am not an english spoken person).

Does anyone use this mail() function at NSI ?

Thanks for your help

Try using the example provided from the PHP site to make sure it's not a syntax error. (Mail Function (http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php))

some hosting companies they do disable the mail function, where in this case you need to use smtp php class to send email. and that's the way we like sending emails from a php script.
