Thanks J.O.,


I will test it in the real enviroment, but would like to test it with other
code on my test server.

To me this is right:

....
$txtHeaders = 'From: me@myplace.com' . "\r\n" .
'Reply-To: me@myplace.com' . "\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();


mail($txtTo, $txtSubject, $txtMessage, $txtHeaders);

All other variables are defined to. Do I need to log in to the sending
account somehow?

Thanks anyone who can help.
