I have read to thread below from Hatch, but I seem to have a completely different problem.

I have recently changed to a Windows2000 server with my hosting provider. Since then my PHP form processor doesn't work. They tell me Windows doesn't allow CGI or PHP.

I have downloaded 5 or 6 different ASP form processors, changed the appropriate lines of code to work with my email address and such. Some use CDONTS and some use SMTP. I get the same problem with all of them. When I hit submit on my form it seems to work wonderfully, no errors, sometimes a successful message, depending on the code of course.

My problem is, even though it acts like it is working fine, I NEVER EVER have received any return email form my form into my email inbox. I always put my address in the appropriate place in the code, but it never comes.

MY ISP has been no help. I don't think they have a clue what is going on. Since it seems to do the exact same thing with every application I try, I am starting to believe the problem may be on their end. They tell me CDONTS in enabled, but I don't know what else to have them check.

Help me please.

Is the email going into your Badmail folder?

No it is not going into any of my folders.

I am assuming what you are asking is do I have email rules that may cause the mail to be placed in a junkmail or badmail folder. I don't have any email rules set that may send it anywhere else but my inbox.

Thanks.

Do you have a send-to property set in your cdonts?
If not try that?

Where do I sent that? On my server, or in my code?

I'm sorry I ment reply-to.
Try putting this in your code.
Value("Reply-To") = "webmaster@countingcrows.com"

The code I am using was written my someone else and that line doesn't appear anywhere in the code. It doesn't seem to belong either.

Are you using forms on your site that send an email to you?

Can I take a look? What is the address?

Can you post the code where you are having the problems. That way we could help you better.
