Can someone tell me what is wrong in this code:

PHP код:

<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['email']))
  {
  $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
  $subject = $_REQUEST['subject'] ;
  $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
  mail("you@domain.com", "$subject",
  $message, "From:" . $email);
  echo "Thank you for contacting us!<br />We will try to answer your report.";
  }
  else
  {
  echo "<form method='post' action='mailform.php'>
  Email: <input name='email' type='text' /><br />
  Subject: <input name='Subject' type='text' /><br />
  Message:<br />
  <textarea name='message' rows='15' cols='40'>
  </textarea><br />
  <input type='Submit' name='submit' value='Send e-mail'/>
  </form>";
  }
?>

When I press send e-mail it doesn't want to send e-mail even tho it says it is sent. And it doesn't return to the mailform if I didn't typed email, subject and message, it just says "Thank you for contacting us! We will try to answer your report." (its the message I placed in echo function). If anyone can help me I will +rep him

have you tried replacing $_REQUEST with $_POST ?

Yes I did. It gives me same results.

The email has beent sent to you@domain.com.

Hi, are you running this off a web-host or a local server? If it's a local server ensure you have a mail server enabled also.

I placed that because I don't want my email to be shown at this forum.

PHP код:

<?php 
if (isset($_REQUEST['email'])) 
  { 
  $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ; 
  $subject = $_REQUEST['subject'] ; 
  $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ; 
  mail($email, "$subject", 
  $message, "From: you@domain.com"); 
  echo "Thank you for contacting us!<br />We will try to answer your report."; 
  } 
  else 
  { 
  echo "<form method='post' action='mailform.php'> 
  Email: <input name='email' type='text' /><br /> 
  Subject: <input name='Subject' type='text' /><br /> 
  Message:<br /> 
  <textarea name='message' rows='15' cols='40'> 
  </textarea><br /> 
  <input type='Submit' name='submit' value='Send e-mail'/> 
  </form>"; 
  } 
?>

Try this code.

I think that you have placed the mail on the wrong place in the function.

No, but that code is similar to mine and I tested it and it doesn't work either :S

You did not add sufficient headers to the email, it requires more then just the "From:". Try this header:

PHP код:

$headers = 'From: your_email@yourhost.com' . "\r\n" .
    'Reply-To: your_email@yourhost.com . "\r\n" .
    'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion(); 


Send an email with the following function:

PHP код:

mail($to, $subject, $body)
