<p>Url for video or Article: <br>
<textarea rows="15" name="question" cols="35"></textarea>
<p><INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Send">
</FORM>
|
and then in sendmail.php, the code is
| Code: |
<?php
$msg = "Sender Name:\t$name\n";
$msg .= "Sender E-Mail or Username:\t$email\n";
$msg .= "Url for video or Article:\t$question\n\n";
$recipient = "harleylang@gmail.com";
$subject = "Video or Article";
$mailheaders = "From: Officialbass.com <> \n";
$mailheaders .= "Reply-To: $email\n\n";
mail($recipient, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders);
?>

harl,
smtp.gmail.com needs authentication which is not supported by PHP mail() function. You'll have to use your ISP SMTP server (if it does not require authentication) or install your own SMTP server.
