add a

error_reporting( E_ALL );

to the top of your php script then run it from the command line

 php -f pathtoscript

add see what errors appear. I suspect you have no sendfrom set in your php.ini and you're not sending full mail headers, so even if that did work, a lof of mail servers will treat it as spam

hy,

i don't have acess to the server, i mean i can't execute command line :

php -f pathtoscript

but i try to complete the headers of function mail:

#!/usr/local/bin/php	
<?php
$to      = '[e-mail]';
$subject = 'the subject';
$message = 'hello test.';
$headers = 'From: [email][e-mail][/email]' . "\r\n" .
'Reply-To: nelnels <[e-mail]>' . "\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) {
  echo "<h4>Thank you for sending email</h4>";
} else {
  echo "<h4>Can't send email to $email</h4>";
}
?> 

but a still received like spam :o

(sorry its a little long :bemused: )

Your server has been blacklisted

1.7 DNS_FROM_RFC_POST RBL: Envelope sender in
postmaster.rfc-ignorant.org
2.6 DNS_FROM_RFC_DSN RBL: Envelope sender in dsn.rfc-ignorant.org
2.8 RCVD_IN_NJABL_SPAM RBL: NJABL: sender is confirmed spam source
[194.65.3.163 listed in combined.njabl.org]

You can reduce the SPAM score by 1 by adding a 'real name'

1.0 NO_REAL_NAME From: does not include a real name

so where you have From: [e-mail]' add in a real name before hand.

eg
From: My Name <[e-mail]>

But that will only take of one point which will reduce you to 4.5 which wil pass a 5.0 rating

now i'm going try not return FALSE.

Thanks alot 🙂
