Hi,
I have one small issue with forms on my site. Once the contents of the form including attached files are processed, they are sent to an email address. Form is written in php and I am using a script from
http://www.apptools.com/phptools/forms/forms5.php
Problem: When the domain name of the website(www.mysite.com) that hosts the
form processing script is the same as the recipient email address domain specified in the script(info@mysite.com), the script does not deliver the form contents to the desired address(info@mysite.com). If the recipient email domain(info@anothersite.com) is different from the website domain(www.mysite.com) where the script resides, the form works fine.
I had this issue with another web host which was resolved on their end. Current web host has instructed me to modify my script by "configuring my form to have a valid from address" because of the following error:

I believe this is a mail server issue which should be resolved by support on their end. Am i correct to assume this. It seems something is blocking the delivery of contents when web domain is same as email domain.
Feedback appreciated
