Try out the following example.

<?php /* recipients */ $to  = "mary@example.com" . ", "; // note the comma $to .= "kelly@example.com"; /* subject */ $subject = "Birthday Reminders for August"; /* message */ $message = ' <html> <head> <title>Birthday Reminders for August</title> </head> <body> <p>Here are the birthdays upcoming in August!</p> <table> <tr>  <th>Person</th><th>Day</th><th>Month</th><th>Year</th> </tr> <tr>  <td>Joe</td><td>3rd</td><td>August</td><td>1970</td> </tr> <tr>  <td>Sally</td><td>17th</td><td>August</td><td>1973</td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> '; /* To send HTML mail, you can set the Content-type header. */ $headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; /* additional headers */ $headers .= "To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>\r\n"; $headers .= "From: Birthday Reminder <birthday@example.com>\r\n"; $headers .= "Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com\r\n"; $headers .= "Bcc: birthdaycheck@example.com\r\n"; /* and now mail it */ mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); ?>

Secondly, Make sure, your headers are properly sent because you might get banned by other mail companies.

Also, the user who was suspended was sending THOUSANDS of emails were SPAM! We will not suspend anyone without a genuine reason. We have log records and complaints. Refrain from jumping onto any conclusions. :-)

Still wont work, i tried 2 different e-mail adresses. Nothing. My original code worked two days ago, but when i tried it yesterday it didn't work... and i never changed the code. Could the outgoing mail server be broken? I knowticed my mail cliant cant connect to the outgoing mail server for my Xisto - Web Hosting account.. :(

Um... what should i set my headers to so i dont get banned from other email companies?
