Mail function now not working my server. i cannot find out the solution for that. i am getting bellow this error when i submitting the contact form.
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 550 Sender is not allowed. in E:\HostingSpace\abayamtranslations.com\httpdocs\contact-form\classes\contact.php on line 137
ERROR! Please ensure PHP Mail() is correctly configured on this server.
$address = "info#abayamtranslations.com";
ini_set("SMTP","mail.abayamtranslations.com");
ini_set("smtp_port","25");
ini_set('sendmail_from','info#abayamtranslations.com');
$headers = "From: $email" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "Reply-To: $email" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8" . PHP_EOL;
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable" . PHP_EOL;
Try with the following
$emailFrom = "info#abayamtranslations.com"; // match this to the domain you are sending email from
$email = "example#example.com";
$subject = "Subject of email";
$headers = 'From:' . $emailFrom . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $email . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $email;
$message = "Message of email";
mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers);
"550 Sender is not allowed" means that the SMTP Blocked Senders list rejected the sender. Search your SMTP log for 550 Sender is not allowed and figure out what address is getting blocked and then alter your list to let that through.
That is the meaning of the error you are getting. This is from the hMailServer Documentation.
Can you try if the following will work?
<?php
mail('info#abayamtranslations.com','Test Email','This is a test email.',"From: info#abayamtranslations.com");
?>
If it doesn't work, then it's probably due to a misconfiguration in your hMailServer and you would need to check your hMailServer Logs.
You are on the windows server, hence forth you have to change SMTP of windows server.
Better way is to use PHPMailer Library. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer
Some important information is missing under your SMTP configuration....
username and password is needed to authenticate with the SMTP mail server.....
it easy ti use smtp mailing in php with:
PHPMailer (https://github.com/Synchro/PHPMailerhttps://github.com/Synchro/PHPMailer)
have a look into it....
Thankyou....

I am a PHP-newbie. This is my code for sending an email with PHP.
mail("xxxx#gmail.com", "the subject", $message,
"From: webmaster#example.com \r\n"
."X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());
You can find it here in php sandbox:
http://sandbox.onlinephpfunctions.com/code/88e1df4ddf90cdf64d5e04c2c2da4c10dfb801ee
But it doesn' work.
Do I need to setup an SMTP connection? If so, how?
Yep, SMTP is more stable method;
Just use https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer
Please try this code, and if you would like to run this code in Localhost then you have to Configure SMTP details in PHP.ini. this code will run in Live hosting without any error, you can also design HTML Message with this code.
$to_email='xxxx#gmail.com'
$email="webmaster#example.com";
$headers = "From: ".$email."\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
$subject = 'Demo Mail';
$message = 'Your Message'
mail($to_email,$subject,$message,$headers);

please refer the following code.in there am sending username and password.email has sent to the gmail.but it is in spam folder.it happens only in gmail.
Here is my code
$to = $email;
$subject = ' Web Site| login Details'; // Give the email a subject
$message = '
Thanks for signing up!
Your account has been created, you can login with the following credentials.
------------------------
Username: '.$uname.'
Password: '.$upass.'
Web Builder login: '.$ulink.'
------------------------ ';
$headers .= 'From:noreply#ggg.eee.net' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: kae#ggg.eee.net' ."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: thi#ggg.eee.net' ."\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
There are many reasons why email providers mark your messages as spam. Sometimes it has to do with the way your server and DNS are configured or other times it may be the content of your message. I would recommend using this tool to help pinpoint the weak spots of your email messages to help you get through most spam filters
Mail-Tester.com
Use this code may be it work properly
$to = Email;
$subject = ' Web Site| login Details'; // Give the email a subject
$message = '

$headers = 'From: noreply#ggg.eee.net' . "\r\n" ;
$headers .='Reply-To: '. $to . "\r\n" ;
$headers .= 'Bcc: kae#ggg.eee.net' ."\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: thi#ggg.eee.net' ."\r\n";
$headers .='X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
if(mail($to, $subject, $message ,$headers)) {
echo('<br>'."Email Sent ;D ".'</br>');
}
else
{
echo("<p>Email Message delivery failed...</p>");
}
I have found the soution of this problem:
Solution-1:
Use double quotes to headers.
Solution-2:
The problem is simple that the PHP-Mail function is not using a well configured SMTP Server.
Nowadays Email-Clients and Servers perform massive checks on the emails sending server, like Reverse-DNS-Lookups, Graylisting and whatevs. All this tests will fail with the php mail() function. If you are using a dynamic ip, its even worse.
Use the PHPMailer-Class and configure it to use smtp-auth along with a well configured, dedicated SMTP Server (either a local one, or a remote one) and your problems are gone.

PHP mail function doesn't complete sending of e-mail

Closed 7 years ago.
I am trying to use php mail() function on my new web server(linux based server) for my website. The issue is, emails are not sending to domain email addresses like some1#domain.com but its working fine for gmail, yahoo. I don't know what is the issue on it?. please give me suggestions or advice how to solve this issue. I want to send emails to domain-based email addresses.
my code is
//$to = $_POST['femail'];
$to = "<toadd#domain.com>";
$message = "
<html>
<head>
<title>".$subject."</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Registration request from site</p>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Project Requested</td>
<td>".$project."</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>";
// Always set content-type when sending HTML email
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
// More headers
$headers .= 'From: <info#domain.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Cc: <some#domain.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' .PHP_VERSION. "\r\n";
#mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
I have faced the same issue..after a talk with hosting service provider I came to know that either sender or receiver's email id should be of the hosting domain id like if you have a site test.com either sender or receiver should have #test.com so you may do the same or talk to your hosting service provider.
$to = "toadd#domain.com"; //to address
$subject ="Your Subject";
$message = "Your message";
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: info#domain.com' . "\r\n"; //from address
if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers) )
{
echo "Mail sent successfully";
}
else
{
echo "failed to send mail";
}
I am using following php code but i ain't getting any mail
function Mail($to, $subject, $message)
{
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: MYAPP! <myYahooMail>' . "\r\n";
// Mail it
if(!mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) {
throw new Exception('There was a problem trying to send an email.');
}
}
The error you're getting is Fatal error: Cannot redeclare mail(). This is because
PHP has a built in mail function. Name your function something else.
You probably need to edit your php.ini (xampp\php\php.ini). Search for "mail function" and change these parameters according your server specs. If you are not the host, you can do this via htaccess.
SMTP = "Your server smtp address here"
smtp_port = 587
I'm having issues sending emails using the php mail() function. I know the php script I have works because I have an identical copy of it on another web-hosting company and it works there.
I think it has to do with the web-hosting company itself. Do any of you know what I need to do in order to make it work? Is there something I need to tell them to install? I think they're running on Apache.
Thanks,
Amit
For clarification purposes, here is the mail-script.
<?php
$to = 'my#email.com';
$subject = 'Contact from your website';
$message =
'Below are details from the Contact Us Form ' . "\n\n" .
'Name: ' . $_REQUEST['name'] . "\n\n" .
'Telephone Number: ' . $_REQUEST['phone'] . "\n\n" .
'E-mail address: ' . $_REQUEST['email'] . "\n\n" .
'Comments: ' . $_REQUEST['comments'];
$email = $_REQUEST['email'];
$headers = 'From: ' . $email . "\r\n" .
'Reply-To: ' . $email . "\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1";
//SPAM CHECK
$str = $_REQUEST['spam'];
$strE = $_REQUEST['email'];
if( $str != "10" || $strE == "")
{
echo "<div align='center' style='color:red'>One or more of the form fields were incorrect, you will be redirected to the contact page within 3 seconds.</div>";
?><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3;URL=http://engineercreativity.com/samples/biz/contact"><!-- EDIT THIS -->
<?php
} else {
mail ($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://engineercreativity.com/thankyou.html"> <!-- EDIT THIS AS WELL -->
<!--
<div class="text" align="center" style="text-align: center; color: green;">

If it is a dedicated server, make sure you have postFix Mail installed (http://www.postfix.org/)
I faced this error today itself as the SMTP server was not available (i assumed it as there by default, but not)
Are you performing any kind of checks on the mail function? It should return true if it's executing successfully - knowing that would help us cut down on other possible reasons you may not be receiving the mail, such as filters, server or smtp configuration etc. Doing something like:
if (mail($to, $subject, $body, $header)) {
echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
} else {
echo("<p>Message delivery failed...</p>");
}
Should give you a better idea, and should die outright if the function does not exist for some reason. Php's mail function is incredibly finicky on free web hosts, since it's commonly abused for spam purposes.
Posting full headers also can help legitimate messages pass spam tests.
$headers = "Return-path: <sendingemail#test.com>\n";
$headers .= "Reply-to: <sendingemail#test.com>"."\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1252\n";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n";
$headers .= "From: <sendingemail#test.com>\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Organization: My Organization\r\n";
$headers .= "\n\n";
Write a really simple script, like
<?php
mail('your_mail#example.com', 'test subject', 'test msg') or die('no mail()');
echo 'mail sent.';
Execute it, and make sure the mail is not caught by your spam filter (if you can afford it, set up your own domain/DNS server, netcat -l -p 25 is sufficient).
If that doesn't work, contact the support of your web hoster. Do they have an FAQ or any other documentation?
Whatever the solution, check your mail()'s output.
Most common solution
Ask your hosting company if your current web host has SMTP set up to relay mail from your scripts. If they say "no", then they might have another SMTP host for you to use like smtp.example.com, or you'll have to use another SMTP relay (check with your current e-mail provider).
Alternative
The SMTP server you're talking to might not understand what your script is saying. I've seen situations before where my mail script will work with Postfix but not qmail. This is easily solved by using a third party e-mail library: there are tons out there, but my favorite is Flourish's (http://flourishlib.com/docs/fEmail).
mail() function of php, will send your mail to junk only. Instead use SMTP php mailer function.
Why we should use SMTP instead PHP mail():
SMTP log in to an actual account on a mailserver and send the mail through SMTP to another mail server. If the mail server is configured correctly, your mails are sent from an actual account on a mailserver and will not wind up flagged as spam.
Mail sent with the mail() function is sent with sendmail in most cases. There is no authentication going on and it will almost always be flagged as spam if you use the "From:" in the extra headers.
This is because if you take a look at an original email file in say, gmail, you will see the headers that are sent. You are actually sending from user#serverhostname.tld and not someone#example.com like you had told the mail function to do.
If you use SMTP and view the original the email is actually sent from someone#example.com
You can download SMTP class from:
