Function mail() in php

mouzaia · January 19th, 2008, 3:57 AM

Hello,
Very strange, I cannot send a mail from an application with the function mail(), it never arrive to the destinee. On my development machine (windows), my application work perfectly and the mail arrive. Did something has changed in Surpass' politics concerning mail() ? I am on a vps machine. Thanks

Are you being explicit with the fields when you build then as in "MAIL FROM:<$sender>\r\n" .... ie. \r\n as Windows will allow mail() to work without the full \r\n but a Linux/PHP machine will not.

Thanks Neil, /r/n everywhere where needed. In fact I wonder if my smtp on my vps is not really slow, it seems I receive the message 2 hours later. I know there is a way to see the waiting lists, I dont remember where, I will find. Thanks again.
