Email Problem

[jblack]

Alright, so I cut out everything that isn't important.What happens here is that it doesn't send the email, I've echoedthe script out to see whats up with it, but I still can't find out whyit won't email. I do have my own email to be sent from also, sodon't crit me about that. It worked fine a little bit ago, but it stoppedall the sudden and I can't figure out why...

<?$from = "no-reply@etherea.obliviousrealms.com";$subject = "Etherea Web Activation";  $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";  $headers .= "From: Web Master $from \n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";$message = "Thank you for registering at Etherea Web, $username.<br>";$message .= "The following is the information you registered with: <br>";$message .= "<b>Username:</b> $username <b>Password:</b> $password <br><br>";$message .= "Your account is not currently activated. Click the following link to activate your account:<br>";$message .= "<a href='http://etherea.obliviousrealms.com/activation.php?name=$username&code=$code'>http://etherea.obliviousrealms.com/activation.php?name=$username&code=$code</a>";if(mail($email,$subject,$message,$headers)) {echo "You have successfully registered. An email is being sent to you for activation of this account.<br>";}}?>

In the last part of the code, does mail($email,$subject,$message,$headers) return true so that you see the "You have successfully registered...." message? Or does it return false?

I think the from header needs to be like this:$headers .= "From: Web Master <$from> \n";And you also need to separate it with \r\n, not just \n.
