Hi

My website is customised in php, and at the contact us pages i've been using the mail() function to get the emails from this form to my email ids.

I have places everything in place, and working fine as well.

But the major problem is i receive the email in more than 4 hours+.

So if a customer sends us any query from our website it's taking 4+ hours.

I dont know what to do in such case, i have reviwed the code twice and dint find any problem with that.

All i looking forward to use any other method, is there any other method, where i dont have to use this mail() function, and receive the email in pretty fast manner.

I am also open to use any email server, which i can use to send and receive email from.

plz help. thanks in advance. KRST

This reads more like a delivery problem as opposed to mail() issue. Have you consulted with your hosting provider?
