Sending mail

[Ted_Haller]

Hi,

I'm obviously doing something really stupid. I'm trying to mail the contents of a form using the 'mail()' function, but without much success.

For testing purposes, I'm just sending a dummy email:

(inside mailform.php)

if( mail("[e-mail]", "this is the subject", "this would be the body") )
echo ("mail sent!");
else
echo ("some expletives - mail NOT sent!!");

On pressing the 'submit' button on the form, some expletives appear on my screen each time.

I'm using (not by choice) IIS 5.1 (as a local host) on a win xp platform. Is there anything I need to be doing to get this to work??

Thanks in advance

Ted

Yes, stupid indeed🙁

A browse through the manual and a small adjustment to php.ini and all is working🙂
