At which point are you getting the errors? At $mailit = mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); or the mail server later returns a delivery error?

Guys,

I'm experiencing some problem with the mail() function. I have a feedback form I want to incorporate into the site, it is working fine with the commercial mail platforms like Gmail, Yahoo...., but it can't send mail when the values of the $to variable are POP based mail systems.

This is the sample code.

<?php

$yourName = 'Online Commercial ';
$yourEmail = 'peter.koech@gmail.com, peter.kipkoech@gmail.com';

$yourSubject = 'Lorem Lipsum';
$referringPage = 'http://www.standardmedia.co.ke';

function cleanPosUrl ($str) {
return stripslashes($str);
}
    if ( isset($_POST['sendContactEmail']) )
    {
    $to = $yourEmail;
    $subject = $yourSubject.': '.$_POST['posRegard'];
    $message = cleanPosUrl($_POST['posText']);
    $headers = "From: ".cleanPosUrl($_POST['posName'])." <".$_POST['posEmail'].">\r\n";
    $headers .= 'To: '.$yourName.' <'.$yourEmail.'>'."\r\n";
    $mailit = mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
        if ( @$mailit ) {
        header('Location: '.$referringPage.'?success=true');
        }
        else {
        header('Location: '.$referringPage.'?error=true');
        }
    }
?>
