Hi!

When visitors send a contact form, get a confirmation message, but I(recipient) had never received any email.

Here are my codes:

Help!!!

Hello Goran

The Problem is known (i hope that was right).

http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=285

so we hope the oliver can fix it!

I have no workaround for that problem - I will change the mail() function for using php mailer class which implements more compatible mail functions - also for using external smtp servers.

Maybe your account is able to send only 1 mail per script. On all of my servers this is working.

Hello Oliver

Hello Oliver,
I took a look at the act_formmailer.php (the old and the new) and found at line 83 to 93 the following code:

[code]//send copy to form sender
if(isset($_POST["send_copy"])) {
if(intval($_POST["send_copy"])) {
$send_copy_to = trim($_POST["email"]);
if(MailVal($send_copy_to, 2)) {
$form_error[300] = $translate[$lang]["error300"];
unset($send_copy_to);
}
}
unset($_POST["send_copy"]);
}
[/code]

In the middle where you find: "if(MailVal($send_copy_to, 2)) {" should there be a "1" instead the "2"? I remember, that I place in the form a hidden value of "1" for sending to the formsender, or do I think wrong?

Sorry, you are wrong. This is only the level of email checking.

Ok, I found in my mailserver log the following error:

[code]postfix/sendmail[2755]: fatal: cannot handle command-line recipients with -t[/code]

Do you have any idea, how to fix this?

By the way: This is a Postfix-Maiserver under Mac OS X 10.3.

Hello Oliver,
I tried the following changes in act_formmailer.php at line 202 to 205:

[code] if(!ini_get('safe_mode')) {
//mail($recipient, $subject, $body, $from, "-f ".$from);
mail($recipient, $subject, $body, $from);
mail($from, $subject, $body, $from);
[/code]

Now I get three Mails:

1. Mail shows from = sendermailaddress -> to = receipientmailaddress

2. Mail shows from = receipientmailaddress -> to = sendermailaddress

3. Mail shows from = sendermailaddress -> to = FROM:sendermailaddress

Should it be so as I wrote? Is the Code ok or should have to change anywhere else?

Run for me like this

from : emailfromuser
recipient : my contact adress

if(isset($send_copy_to)) {
$from = "From: ".$send_copy_to."\n";
mail($send_copy_to, $subject, $body, "From: ".$recipient."\n", "-f ".$recipient);
} else {
$from .= "From: ".$email."\n";
}
mail($recipient, $subject, $body, $from);

Hello Oliver,
this is realy strange, i upload the old act_formmailer.php from 10.11.2003 and everything works. The recipent mail and the copy would be send.

Hello Goran
