    <p>When I change the email to my personal hotmail address, the message turns up - although it is in my spam folder. But when I change this to the client's email, the message doesn't turn up at all. Does anybody know how I can fix this?</p> <p>This is the PHP for the form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $name = $_POST['name']; $address = $_POST['address']; $number = $_POST['number']; $email = $_POST['email']; $message = $_POST['message']; $subject = 'Message from Reef Cleaning solutions website'; $to = 'info@address.co.uk'; if (empty($name) || empty($address) || empty($number) || empty($email) || empty($subject) || empty($message)) { if (empty($name)) $error['name'] = "Please enter your Full Name"; if (empty($address)) $error['address'] = "Please enter your address"; if (empty($number)) $error['number'] = "Please enter a contact number"; if (empty($email)) $error['email'] = "Please enter a valid Email Address"; if (empty($message)) $error['message'] = "Please write a message, enquiries or other concerns above"; } else { //if not empty $body = " Name: $name\r\n Address: $address\r\n Number: $number\r\n Email: $email\r\n Message: $message "; $headers="From: {$email}\r\nReply-To: {$email}"; //create headers for email if(mail($to,$subject,$body,$headers)) { $success = "mail has been sent"; } else { echo "error during sending mail"; } } } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>This is the HTML</p> <pre><code> &lt;form method="POST"&gt; &lt;table border="1"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;label for="name" class="g"&gt;Name&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input id="name" name="name" type="text" autofocus required /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;label for="address" class="g"&gt;Address&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;textarea rows="3" id="address" name="address" cols="50"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;label for="number" class="g"&gt;Contact number&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input id="number" name="number" type="text" autofocus required /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;label for="email" class="g"&gt;Email&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;input id="email" name="email" type="text" placeholder="example@domain.com" autofocus required /&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;label for="message" class="g"&gt;Enquiry&lt;/label&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;textarea rows="3" id="message" name="message" required cols="50"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit" /&gt; &lt;div id="message-sent"&gt; &lt;?php if ($success) { echo $success; } ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre>

    2. COI think he is saying that if he send the email to a hotmail account the email is sent and goes in the spam folder in hotmail. If he send the email to info@address.co.uk the email is not sent. But.. do you get any error? I mean, the email is sent and rejected by your client or the mail is not sent at all? are you able to at least detect that? The HTML form is good, even the code seems good.

    3. COI'm using outitgoes.com to test the client email address and nothing is showing up in this inbox or spam folder. However, when I test it on my personal hotmail, it does turn up in my email.

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.
