Hi, 

Here is the revised version, and I don't think I have experienced any changes in terms of the output on the screen. Plus, I still get no email. 

<?php

require_once("Mail.php");

$mail = Mail::factory("mail");



$your_name = $_POST['your_name'];

$email = $_POST['email'];

$question = $_POST['question'];

$comments= $_POST['comments'];

$submit = $_POST['submit'];



$from = "ajwei@xxxxxxxxxxxxx";

$to =  "elite.english@xxxxxxxxx";

$subject = "Comments";

$body = "From: $your_name\n E-Mail: $email\n Reason Contact: $question\n
 Comments:\n $comments";



$headers =  'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";

$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' . "\r\n";

$headers .= 'Errors-to: <elite.english@xxxxxxxxx>' . "\r\n";

$mail ->send($to, $headers, $body);

if (PEAR::isError($mail)) echo "<p>" . $mail->getMessage() . 
"</p>";

else {

       echo "<p>Message successfully sent!</p> <div 
id='main'> 

       <h1>Thank You For Contacting Us</h1>

       <p>Here is what you have input:</p>

       <ul><li>Your Name is <b>" . $your_name .  
"</b></li>

           <li>Your Email is <b>" . $email . 
"</b></li>

           <li>You contacted us because you have a <b>" . 
$question . "</b></li>

           <li>Here are your comments: <b>" . $comments . 
"</b></li></ul>

     <h1>Have a Nice Day!</h1></div>";

  } 


I have made sure that my $from and $to addresses are different, Could there be anything else wrong here? I have not edited anything in php.ini regarding this issue. Would I need to?

Thanks for your help.

Alice
