i am using the mail() function. the problem is that when I use the script on one server all goes well. when i use the script on an other server, the mail is only sent to people that have web email boxes like hotmail.com, but not received by people using for exampe outlook. Any idea why this might be?
this is the script i am using:
<?php
/* First display the code for the form */
if (!$email) {
if ($email="")echo "please fil in";
function emailcheck($intext) {
$theresults = ereg("^[^@ ]+@[^@ ]+\.[^@ \.]+$", $intext, $trashed);
if ($theresults) { $isamatch = "Yes"; } else { $isamatch = "Please check the format of your email address"; }
echo("$isamatch<br>\n");
}
?>

/* and now mail it */
mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers);
/* display text on screen */
echo 'E-mail succesfully sent to: '.$name.'.';
}
?>
<?php if (!$email) { ?>

First of all, Outlook is not the problem, because it is a client program not server. I would rather check if the register_globals directive is set to "on" on your server and set to "off" on this "other" server.

If you will be able to get this to work I have got one hint: do not use \r\n - Outlook and The Bat doesn't like it
use \n instead.
