Can somebody tell me what wrong with this line
mail($to, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders);

this is the error I get when I try to use it.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mail() in /users/coolfreepage.com/fhfanshaw/send_simpleform.php on line 19

What are the values of the variables, assuming you set values to the variables.

$to="[e-mail]";
$subject="What is this";
$message="This is good stuff";

mail($to,$subject,$message);

You do not need the headers right away, but try something like this first and make sure it works. The headers are userful for supplying other information, but get mail working first. HEADERS are optional.

Thanks for your help. I've figured out that it is a problem (more a restriction) of coolfreepages.com. I tried the same script on my live site and it worked fine.
