I have a form that allows users (based primarily in the former Soviet Union) to submit proposals, uploads the proposals to a database, and is then supposed to inform me when said proposal is uploaded, using PHP's mail() function. While it's always put into the database, it doesn't always send the email. I've tested as many variations as I can think to test, but I always get the confirmation email.

I'm at my wits end to figure out why I don't always get a confirmation email. Is there anything I should be checking for or stripping or adding that would make this work more consistently?
