Sending emails with PHP?

Question

PHP

Not receiving emails. I currently use free hosting qlihost.ru. A success message appears, but there is no email.

There is a form:

<form id="form" class="form-signin p-4 mt-4" action="" method="post">
      <div class="row">
      <div class="col-sm">
        <input type="text" name="your_name" id="inputName" class="form-control" placeholder="Ваше имя*" required="">
          <br>
        <input type="email" name="your_mail" id="inputEmail" class="form-control" placeholder="Ваш E-mail">
        <br>
        <input type="tel" name="your_phone" id="inputPassword" class="form-control mb-4" placeholder="Номер телефона*" required="">
      </div>
      <div class="col-sm">
        <textarea name="your_message" class="form-control" placeholder="Ваше сообщение" style="height: 92px;"></textarea>
        <br>
        <input type="submit" name="send" value="Получить консультацию" class="btn btn-block bg-autumn text-white in_banner">
      </div>
      </div>
      <span class="text-muted">Вы соглашаетесь с условиями обработки персональных данных. <a href="#" class="texe-inform">Ознакомиться</a>.</span>
    </form>

And PHP script:

<? $name=$_POST['your_name'];
$mail=$_POST['your_mail'];
$phone=$_POST['your_phone'];
$message=$_POST['your_message'];
$send=$_POST['send'];
$my_mail='[email protected]';
if(isset($send)){
  if($send=='Получить консультацию'){
    if(!empty($name) && !empty($phone)){
      mail($my_mail, $phone, $message.' ('.$mail.')');
      echo "Спасибо за Ваше сообщение, оно успешно отправлено.";
    }
  }
} ?>

I especially want to know what exactly you need to look at in the logs, if they matter here. Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Success message appears

It is tied to the presence of fields, and not to sending a letter.

1) mail() has a bunch of restrictions, especially on free hosting
2) mail() is not required to send a letter, its task is to give it to the server specified in the php smtp config, what will happen to him next is absolutely violet.
3) It would be nice to at least check what mail() returned
4) A good solution would be to use normal libraries for sending mail, PHPMailrer, SwiftMailer...
