i suck at this - help

can anybody tell me why this little contact form isn't working for me? i get 'Mail Error' when I submit the form.

PHP Code:


		
			
<?





$str="";

$str= "Name:".$_POST['txt_name']."<br><br>"."Email: ".$_POST['txt_email']."<br><br>Subject: ".$_POST['txt_subject']."<br><br>Message: <br>".$_POST['txt_msg'];

$to= '[email protected]' ;

$subject="Free Consultation Form";

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

$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

$headers .= 'From: '.$email . "\r\n";

$message =   $str;

mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers) or die("Mail Error");





if($_POST['chk_me']==1) {

    $to=  $_POST['txt_email'] ;

    $subject="Free Consultation Form";

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

    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

    $headers .= 'From: '.$email . "\r\n";

    $message =   $str;

    mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers) or die("Mail Error");

    

}



header("Location:". $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);



?>

well i sent in a ticket to the host 9 hours ago but no response - mainstream host, this isn't for an adult site.

and note that you'll find yourself listed as a spammer at some point when the spambots find your form. For the "from" address they'll enter:

[email protected]
Cc: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]...

For the from address or anything else user submitted, use only the captured text from a proper regex match on valid input.

tried it on another server - works. this host must have mail blocked.

i have no idea how to make the form spammer proof - it's a jquery mail form called SimpleModal that seems to be very popular.
