I've been doing:
**Tutorial 06 - Send Mail Contact Form (PHP and Flash) from the intermediate level.**

Followed the two main steps
1-changing the email address in the "mail.php3" file which looked like

<?php
mail("chucky@chucky.com", $subject, $message, "From: PHPMailer\nReply-To: $from\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());
?>

and 2-placing the propper path to it in the "mailer.swf" file.

In the begining nothing did work out at all...then talking to my server I was told that I was on a window 2000 based server and it did not support .php files.etc..etc.
That is how now I'm on red hat linux one.
Tried again tutorial 06 and ....woaw.It worked great.
Testing it I was getting this following result:

testing-testing-etc.
************************************
Two days after...ups!...no response

So again...asked them what on earth was going on now
you know It was working fine before.

And they replied:
************************************
Dear Chucky
Thank you for your email.
Either the 'to' or 'from' address specified needs to be a domain on the
system for it to pass through our smtp filters.

Yours sincerely,

Bla, bla, bla.

Could anyone tell me what is to be done now? Pleeeease!!!
Any changes in the "mail.php3" file perhaps?


thanks.

NOTE: *chucky@chucky.com is not real, my usual address was placed instead and the server runs PHP version 4.1.2
