"To:$Todomainname@.com"
That is your problem. whats this To: doing there? This section is supposed to be just a e-mail address, the address that you want to send the e-mail to. it should be like
Code: Select all
mail("someone@hotmail.com","$Subject","$some message body","From:$Fromdomainname.com");
or somthing like that.

can I recommend PHPmailer? You will likely have a lot of problems sending to hotmail and other email providers becasue of misused headers. PHPmailer is very effective and 99.9% gets the job done
