No emails being sent???????

Hi all,

 

I have been setting up my site for the last 2 weeks or so but I just seem to get one problem after another. This problem is one about emails!

 

First off last week I was getting the error in email.php line 500 or whatever it was I knew that this was some error with the mail server of my hosting company or something. Anyway the problem this time is that when someone signs up for a new account or sends a message to the store owner it seems to work fine, ie no errors occur. However the mail never gets to me or to customers its like it is not being sent?

 

Now if I was to set up a simple script:

mail("[email protected]","test","This is a test","From: [email protected]");

it works fine and the server sends emails no problems so I can't decide if there is some problem with the code or something, mind you the hosting company did say that they require at least one local address to stop spamming on their server, but the From: field does the job.

 

Has anyone else ever had this sort of problem before? do you think it may be something wrong with the webserver I am using, if so let me know what you think the problem is so I can talk to the company hosting the site and pretend I know what I'm talking about :P

 

I really want to get the site up and running ASAP so please respond if you know whats wrong or have any suggestions?
