Hi All!
I've got a strange problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with. I've got a sign up script that allows a user to enter their particulars...it then sends that information to my member database, and sends the user in question an email with further instructions...Everything works like a charm, except the email sending...I would really appreciate it if someone could glance over my code and offer a suggestion as to why the mail() function would be returning successful, but the email never lands...I'm about 100% sure it's in the coding here, but I just can't find the problem.
Thanks!!

I'm aware that some of the email headers and the database code are commented out...in the final version of course, they would be active lines of code.
Thanks!!
