Author Topic: PHP Mail Function not Reaching *some* e-mail addresses  (Read 970 times)

I'm going crazy with this…I've set up contact forms on various add-on domains and they've been working fine.  The sender was set as csaborio@cow.com.  I noticed that I was not receiving e-mail through the contact form and I did a test and the mail was indeed never received.

After some testing, I created the following PHP file:

<?php
mail("csaborio@bar.com", "Test Subject", "Test Body", "From:csaborio@bar.com");
echo "Email sent";
?>

I ran the script and I got nothing.  This 'bar.com' account was the one through which I was always sending mail.  I changed the bar.com address (both sender and recipient) to another domain I have (let's call it foo.com) and I *got* the e-mail.

This lead me to believe there was some spam filtering going on, but there is nothing on the spam folder, the e-mail is simply lost.

I then changed the script so that the sender was foo.bar and the recipient was bar.com and nothing.  Any help is greatly appreciated, I am indeed going crazy.

Thanks!

in order to trace this, you should first solve the first problem which is are you able to send email through the original account?

Please note that LP has restrictions and they disallow you if you exceed the 250 mail.
