I'm not an "expert" with php but I know a few things...

Created a form that uses a formmail.php script. Worked fine on my testing server running php v4.3.3. Put it on the client's server running php v4.2.3 and none of the "special" fields (subject, email, etc.) are being picked up by the formmail.php script.

Would the MOST LIKELY reason be the older version of php? Perhaps only a certain module needs to be installed?
 
are these data passed using POST or GET? if so, are you picking the vars up as $var or $_POST['var'] ? it could be a "register global" issue in php.ini

on test could be set on and in production could be set off.

cheers.
 
Compare the output of the phpinfo(); for both versions. It will show you if there are different configuration settings.
There is a multitude of possibilities for such behavior.
