Hello,

One of my client has his site hosted on Yahoo's small business hosting. I can not mention the client's domain, so let's call it mydomain.xxx

I have setup a simple feedback form. This feedback form is submitted to a PHP script which uses PHPMailer to send email to info@mydomain.xxx

The problem is that this PHP script can send email to any email address except info@mydomain.xxx.

That is, when I replace the info@mydomain.xxx address with, say myname@hotmail.xxx, the email goes through. But it simply won't send emails to info@mydomain.xxx

Can anybody help me out with this? Anybody else has any experience with Yahoo hosting?

I know PHP and am quite familiar with PHPMailer so I can assure you that it is not a scripting error.

Thanks,
Jatinder Singh Thind

Is the MX for mydomain.xxx on the Yahoo account or external? And are you using sendmail or smtp?

I don't know Yahoo hosting but I'd be trying authenticated smtp via the mailserver for the domain.

I would say to ask your client to send a support request to yahoo on this issue.

Thanks for the replies. The problem has been sorted out. Yahoo hosting is really weird.
