To those who recommended Arvixe.com
Whoever here recommended Arvixe.com hosting - why didn't you mention they don't support simple PHP mail() function?
And that their Live Chat support is not working and the regular support is slow (waiting over 30 minutes now for a simple question).

Hello,
The PHP mail() is supported on Linux hosting plans.
Also, we are getting an abnormally large volume of chats this morning, so you may experience a delay. Our apologies that should be under control ASAP.
In the meantime, feel free to call us toll free. The phone lines are hardly busy -- (888)-927-8493.
Finally, feel free to reach out to me directly -- adam[at]arvixe[dot]com.
Thank you!Web Hosting @ Arvixe, LLC

I cannot make this simple mail script work:
<h2>Test Form</h2>
<?php
// display form if user has not clicked submit
if (!isset($_POST["submit"]))
{
?>
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"];?>">
From: <input type="text" name="from"><br>
Subject: <input type="text" name="subject"><br>
Message: <textarea rows="10" cols="40" name="message"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Feedback">
</form>
<?php
}
else
// the user has submitted the form
{
// Check if the "from" input field is filled out
if (isset($_POST["from"]))
{
$from = $_POST["from"]; // sender
$subject = $_POST["subject"];
$message = $_POST["message"];
// message lines should not exceed 70 characters (PHP rule), so wrap it
$message = wordwrap($message, 70);
// send mail
mail("myemail@my-email.com",$subject,$message,"From: $from\n");
echo "Thank you for sending us feedback";
}
}
?>

When a simple script doesn't work it's usually not a good sign..

Can you try <?php phpinfo(); ?>. Also do they have a PHP Selector where you can tick boxes, you might need to tick a box on it.

I see they use mailchannels.net in their mail server IPs.. that's going to fail SPF authentication. I don't want to go through this.

Ok, in the support email I received this sentence:
Thank you for contacting us. Your ticket is currently in the "General" queue. To route your ticket to the correct department immediately, please take a moment and fill out the form at the following URL:
I think I'm not patient enough to route tickets, so ok, nevermind, I need to find another solution.

I'd have to say that's a ridiculous question lol Why would they mention if it supports it or not?
I see you did a review on PacificHost and didn't even mention the color of the theme they use for cPanel
Also 30min isn't a long wait at all. Even a couple hours is fine. You post a lot of negative.█ █ █

went back to try Arvixe again after an absence of 2 years and I must say that I'm very disappointed. The website that I currently host with them is in almost constant 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable error and I have been trying to reach the live support for help since this afternoon with no success. moving away asap.

What is your ticket ID? 503 errors can happen if you've been limited but please provide your ticket ID so we can check on this.

That gives:
Service Temporarily Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.|| Need a good host?

Right after I posted it, we made an Apache change which restarted Apache. It's up right now and being monitored. But without a ticket ID, we can't keep track of this issue. We need a ticket ID...

It's unfortunate that "experts" these days look at a single number and get worried.
