mail function, not sending the mail

[Delboy14]

I am trying to send an email depending on a variable value, the code, is correct in that it does go into the correct branch of the code however the mail is not sent, does anyone know why? I have included the code below, thanks in advance

<code>
if($TravelRequest[3]==&quot;CGB&quot
{
$toaddress=&quot;derek.smith@db.com&quot;;
$subject=&quot;You are from CGB, sent to Kim&quot;;
$mailcontent=&quot; I want to visit NY&quot;;
mail($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent);
echo &quot;Attempted to send the email to UK&quot;;
}
else if($TravelRequest[3]==&quot;CUS&quot
{
$toaddress=&quot;derek.smith@db.com&quot;;
$subject=&quot;You are from CUS, sent to Joyce&quot;;
$mailcontent=&quot;I want to visit London&quot;;
mail($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent);
echo &quot;Attempted to send the email to US&quot;;
}
else
{
echo &quot; Not found the region!!!&quot;;
}

</code>

Try adding this somewhere;

if ($php_errormsg) { echo &quot;Error: $php_errormsg&quot;; }

Cheers

and are you sure the mailserver specified in php.ini is correct and working ok?

sorry, I have found out there are certain restrictions on the server, I just needed to apply to have my site registered to enable mail to be sent thanks for the posts though
