hello
I have been trying to send email to a group of users found in my database, but the problem is the email is being sent but not received. I have also tried sending only to one recipient, it does not work either. I have already hosted my site

here is my code:

1st page

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<html>

<head>

<title>Mailing List</title>

</head>
 
<body>

<form method="post" action="log5.php">

<table align="center" bgcolor="#D6DEE7" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

<tr>

<td align="center">

<b><h2>MAILING LIST ADMIN</h2></b>
 
Send message to:

<select name="receiver" size="1" style="background-color: #F7F7F7">

<option selected value="all">Reviewer</option>

<option value="notall">Author</option>

</select><br />

<br />
 
Title or Subject: <input name="subject" type=text maxlength=100 size=40>

<br />

<br />

Message:

<textarea wrap name="message" rows=10 cols=45></textarea>

<br /><br />

<input type=submit name="submit" value="SUBMIT">

</td>

</tr>

</table>

</form>

</body>

</html>

and the log.php page:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<?php

include("db_connect.php");
 
   $tom = $_POST['receiver'];

  $subject = $_POST['subject'];

  $message = $_POST['message'];

  $country = $_POST['country'];

  $headers = 'From: myemail@yahoo.com'; 
 
  if ($tom == "all") {

$result = mysql_query("SELECT Reviewer_email FROM reviewer");
 
    $count = 0;

        while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))

        {

        $to = $row['Reviewer_email'];

        mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

        $count++;

        }
 
    echo "myResult=$count Emails Sent. Done.";

}
 
 if ($tom == "notall") {
 
    $result1 = mysql_query("SELECT Author_email FROM author");
 
    $count1 = 0;

        while ($row1 = mysql_fetch_array ($result1, MYSQL_ASSOC))

        {

        $to = $row1['Author_email'];

        mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

        $count1++;

        }

Here are some steps to help with debugging:

Turn On Debugging Messages.
Check your functions return true (i.e., they work) by using an IF conditional *.
Use the mysql_error() function to return any errors mysql generates for the current resource **.

Tell us any errors you receive.

Have you checked your spam box?

* Using an IF:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
if ( mail( [...] ) )

{

    // mail was sent successfully.

}

** mysql_error()

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
$sql = "SELECT * FROM `tbl_1`";

// If mysql_query() evalutes to false, die with query error.

$result = mysql_query( $sql ) or die( mysql_error() );
