    1. COHi, Are you sure that the email sent to @pixology.com does not get filtered as spam? Also, do you see any exception messages if you remove the @ in front of the mail() command when sending to @pixology.com?

    2. COHave you tried replacing the \r\n in the headers with just \n as noted in the Mail docs "If messages are not received, try using a LF (\n) only. Some poor quality Unix mail transfer agents replace LF by CRLF automatically (which leads to doubling CR if CRLF is used). This should be a last resort, as it does not comply with » RFC 2822." - http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

    3. CO@Re0sless has a good point as well. I would recommend using a framework to send your emails just to make sure the headers are correct for all outgoing email messages using php. Have a look at www.swiftmailer.org as an example.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
