PHP mail function is not working, I can't get email from my domain test#test.com. It worked perfectly before few days back, but not now.
Tried every solutions on Stack Overflow but still not resolved.
HTML form code : 1.html
<form method="post" name="from" action="2.php">
Company Name : <input type="text" name="cname"><input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit">
</form>
PHP mail code : 2.php
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$cname=trim($_POST['cname']);
//$cname='"'.$cname.'"';
echo $cname;
/* mail to Admin */
$to = 'test#test.com';
$subject = 'Details : From $cname';
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
$headers = 'From: $cname';
$message = 'Company name : $cname';
if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
{
echo "Mailer sent!";
} else {
echo "Message Error:";
}
}
?>

Answer 1

Your 2.php should be like this: ( You were printing message at wrong places)
$to should be some working email address where you can check emails. Also it will work on LIVE server. Mostly not worked with localhost.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$cname=trim($_POST['cname']);
//$cname='"'.$cname.'"';
echo $cname;
/* mail to Admin */
$to = 'test#test.com';
$subject = 'Details : From $cname';
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: ' . strip_tags($cname) . "\r\n";
$message = 'Company name : $cname';
if(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers))
{
echo "Message sent!";
} else {
echo "Mailer Error: ";
}
}
?>

EDIT2:
Here is the exact code that I have tested and is working.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$cname=trim($_POST['cname']);
//$cname='"'.$cname.'"';
echo $cname;
/* mail to Admin */
$to = 'test#test.com';
$subject = 'Details : From '.$cname;
$headers = 'From: '.$cname;
$message = 'Company name : '.$cname;
if(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers))
{
echo "Mailer sent!";
} else {
echo "Message Error:";
}
}
?>
The only other thing that I changed aside from the extra space in the header variable, was the concatenation of the variable with the input data ($cname).
The email would still send without the concatenation change, but it would display "$cname" instead of the entered data.
EDIT: For the header variable:
$headers = 'From : $cname';
Should actually be:
$headers = 'From: $cname';
I didn't notice the extra space between From and : originally, but I noticed it after I tested it. Email was not received unless the space was removed.
Try this.
Also, the if statement for the mail function will trigger as true if the message is sent. So you want to swap the echo lines as the "error" output should be under the else portion.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$cname=trim($_POST['cname']);
//$cname='"'.$cname.'"';
echo $cname;
/* mail to Admin */
$to = 'test#test.com';
$subject = 'Details : From $cname';
$headers = 'From: $cname';
$message = 'Company name : $cname';
if(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers))
{
echo "Mailer sent!";
} else {
echo "Message Error:";
}
}
?>
