Hi,
Tried it...but it didn't work...Not sure why. I am using a respectable ISP and they are looking at the problem although they tend to take their time.
I figure I must not be passing the variable. I will post my entire code.
For all those that help again thank you.

Hi,
What i understand is, you have written a new function for sending emails.
Are you passing all the variables to that function? If not, you have to
pass.
or you can use my function
// function declaration, This function can send only HTML emails
function sendMail ($toEmail, $subject, $message, $fromName, $fromEmail)
{
$header .= "From: $from_name <$fromEmail>\n";
$header .= "Reply-To: <$fromEmail>\n";
$header .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$header .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed\n";
$header .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n";
$header .= "X-Mailer: php\n\n";
mail($toEmail, $subject, $message, $header);
}
// variable values and usage
$toEmail = "shafiq@xxxxxxxxx";
$subject = "Hello, This is test";
$message = "Hellow Shafiq,
This is test
message
Regards
Shafiq";
$fromName = "Sender Name";
$fromEmail = "you@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
sendMail ($toEmail, $subject, $message, $fromName, $fromEmail);
?>
