This has been driving me crazy for a week now. I’ve set up many forms using PHP to gather and send data, but I have one now that isn’t working and I can’t get it to work. I tried using the most basic tutorial here [http://www.kirupa.com/web/php\_contact\_form.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/web/php_contact_form.htm) in addition to several others. What happens is that everything acts like it’s working, I get the success message, but no mail ever goes through. I’ve tried this with my e-mail addresses and client e-mails and the result is the same. Are there any suggestions as to what may cause this? I’m running PHP 4, switched back from 5 in case that was the problem, but no change. Here’s the latest stripped down code I’m trying, with my e-mail address removed. \*\*Form: \*\* \ \ \\ \
