HTML, PHP & POSTFIX
Hi, wondering if anyone could help me out 

I have my domain with a site and email hosted on one sentora server 

I have a contact us HTML form and a PHP server side script

HTML 

Code:
<form action="email_form.php" method="post">
               <input id="name" name= "name" type="text" class="text" value="Name" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Name';}">
               <input id="email" name="email" type="text" class="text" value="Email" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Email';}">
               <input id="subject" name="subject" type="text" class="text" value="Subject" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Subject';}">
               <textarea id="message" name="message" value="Comment" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Message';}">Comment</textarea>
               <input type="submit" value="submit">
            </form>


PHP
PHP Code:
<?php

    
{
 
   $name=$_REQUEST['name'];
 
   $email=$_REQUEST['email'];
 
   $subject=$_REQUEST['subject'];
 
   $message=$_REQUEST['message'];
 
   if (($name=="")||($subject=="")||($email=="")||($message==""))
 
       {
        echo 
"All fields are required, please fill <a href=\"\">the form</a> again.";
     
   }
 
   else{        
     
   $from="From: $name<$email>\r\nReturn-path: $email";
        
mail("info@mydomain.co.za"$name$subject$message$from);
        echo 
"Email sent!";
     
   }
 
    
?>

Now this works perfectly and if I go to the roundcube webmail I get the response

But I have this on another page 

HTML 
Code:
<form action="email_form_service.php" method="post">
               <input id="name" name= "name" type="text" class="text" value="Name" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Name';}">
               <input id="company" name= "company" type="text" class="text" value="Company" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Company';}">
               <input id="contact" name= "contact" type="text" class="text" value="Contact Number" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Contact';}">
               <input id="service" name= "service" type="text" class="text" value="Name Of Service" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Service';}">
               <input id="email" name="email" type="text" class="text" value="Email" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Email';}">
               <input id="budget" name="budget" type="text" class="text" value="Enter Maximum Budget" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Budget';}">
               <textarea id="message" name="message" value="Comment" onfocus="this.value = '';" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Message';}">Message</textarea>
               <input type="submit" value="submit">
            </form>

PHP
PHP Code:
<?php

    
{
 
   $name=$_REQUEST['name'];
 
   $email=$_REQUEST['email'];
 
   $contact=$_REQUEST['contact'];
 
   $service=$_REQUEST['service'];
 
   $budget=$_REQUEST['budget'];
 
   $company=$_REQUEST['company'];
 
   $message=$_REQUEST['message'];
 
   if (($name=="")||($email=="")||($contact=="")||($service=="")||($budget=="")||($company=="")||($message==""))
 
       {
        echo 
"All fields are required, please fill <a href=\"\">the form</a> again.";
     
   }
 
   else{        
     
   $from="From: $name<$email>\r\nReturn-path: $email";
        
mail("quotes@mydomain.co.za"$name$contact$service$budget$company$message$from);
        echo 
"Request Sent!";
     
   }
 
   }
?>
It doesn't work 
I do get the Request sent message but nothing in the webmail

Just took a quick look:

Check how the mail() function is used.

You can easily use something like:

PHP Code:
$to  "quotes@mydomain.co.za";
$subject  "the subject";
$message2 "name: $name \r\n".
"Contact: $contact \r\n".
"service: $service \r\n".
"budget: $budget \r\n".
"Company: $company \r\n".
"message: $message';
$headers        = "Fromserver@mydomain.co.za \r\n" .
"
X-MailerPHP/" . phpversion();

mail(
$to$subject$message2$headers); 

Did not test this....

RE: HTML, PHP & POSTFIX
You know that you did not check/validated any of the POST variables which is very insecure!


uhmm tried/did a edit and got a new post......

Tried something similar before !!
And this as well, Didn't work 

It seems odd as for my contact form it works perfectly 

I think this issue is server side

RE: HTML, PHP & POSTFIX
You are using the mail() function wrong in both examples, try this for the second one:
PHP Code:
$name=$_REQUEST['name'];
$email=$_REQUEST['email'];
$contact=$_REQUEST['contact'];
$service=$_REQUEST['service'];
$budget=$_REQUEST['budget'];
$company=$_REQUEST['company'];
$message=$_REQUEST['message'];
if ((
$name=="")||($email=="")||($contact=="")||($service=="")||($budget=="")||($company=="")||($message=="")){
echo 
"All fields are required, please fill <a href=\"\">the form</a> again.";
}else{ 
       
$to  
"quotes@mydomain.co.za";
$subject  "the subject";
$message2 "name: $name \r\n".
"E-mail: $email \r\n".
"Contact: $contact \r\n".
"service: $service \r\n".
"budget: $budget \r\n".
"Company: $company \r\n".
"message: $message";
$headers        "From: $name <$email>\r\nReturn-path: $email
."X-Mailer: PHP/" phpversion();
if(
mail($to$subject$message2$headers)){
echo 
"Sent!";
}else{
echo 
"fail!";
}

this one i tested.

AND ITS VERY INSECURE, don't use it on a production server/website!

P.S. if the first one worked, even if you use the wrong variables in the mail() function you can say it issent a server problem.
I think..
