I found this code here on Stackoverlow but I can't get it to work. It reacts fine when I hit the Submit, but I don't recieve any mails.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$to = "email#example.com"; // this is your Email address
$from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
$subject = "Form submission";
$subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
$message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
// You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
}
?>

Anyone who can help me. I should maybe say I use Joomla, if that has something to do with it? .. and of course I changed the $to to my email ;)
I have check your code, it looks good.
If you check your code on Localhost, you have to use SMTP to send an emails or enable SMTP in JOOMLA
If you are try this code on server, please check that your service provider support PHP mail in order to send an emails. if they are not allow you have to contact host service provider and/ or use SMTP mail server

You can't send from a gmail address unless you're sending through gmail's servers, which essentially means you can't use PHP's mail() function to do it. You may be able to try, but your messages will be marked as forgeries.
To set the envelope sender with the mail function, you need to use a -f parameter in the $additional_params parameter in the mail function.
Your script is vulnerable to header injection attacks, and it is also exploitable for cross-site scripting.
To avoid the forgery issue, I recommend sending directly through gmail, which mean you need to use SMTP, and the easiest way to do that is to use PHPMailer that you tagged this question with. Base your code on the examples provided with it.
i have a form in my php page like the following:
<form action="" method="post">
<h1>Sign Up Now!
<!-- <span>Sign up and tell us what you think of the site!</span> --></h1>
<div class="inner-wrap">
<label>Your Full Name <input type="text" name="field1" /></label>
<label>Address <textarea name="field2"></textarea></label>
</div>
<div class="button-section">
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="Sign Up" />
</div>
</form>
the code for it is below:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$to = "zubairking#gmail.com"; // this is your Email address
$from = $_POST['field1']; // this is the sender's Email address
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
$subject = "Form submission";
$subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
$message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
// You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
}
?>
my server is also mail enabled, but this code of mine is not sending values to my mail, all the code is in one page, can anyone please tell me whats wrong with my code? thanks in advance
You need the submit button to have name="submit" for the condition if(isset($_POST['submit'])) to be met. You also need to add elements with names='first_name', 'last_name' and 'message' in the form to apply them in your email messages as you are trying to do.
You also need your <input type="text" name="field1" /> to be an email instead a name, given that you are using it to set the sender of the email.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$to = "abpaple#gmail.com"; // this is your Email address
$from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
$subject = "Form submission";
$subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
$message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
// You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
// You cannot use header and echo together. It's one or the other.

Well,I run it in localhost
With Your Email have you check the Junk/Spam Folder as you are sending the mail from an unregistered domain name (localhost) which my trigger the Gmail spam filters. Also try and send a CC to a temperary mail address.
Can you also provide what smtp server you are using or package such as xamp or wamp etc...
Do you have a Mail Transport Agent (MTA), or if you like, a SMTP service installed/configured? Otherwise you can't send e-mails from your localhost.

I would suggest you switch to PHPMailer, it will take care of email configurations for you.
