Question
Not receiving emails from php mail() function
I’m not receiving emails from mail() function.
I created a php test:
<?php
ini_set( 'display_errors', 1 );
error_reporting( E_ALL );
$from = "info@crazytraction.com";
$to = "pabloezequiel@gmail.com";
$subject = "PHP Mail Test script";
$message = "This is a test to check the PHP Mail functionality";
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers .= "Reply-To: $to";
var_dump(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers));
The output is…
bool(true)
I’m using a LEMP droplet on Ubuntu 16.06. I already installed postfix, opened port 25 and checked my host file…
127.0.0.1 localhost.crazytraction localhost amsterdam
which I think is correct (amsterdam is the hostname)
I can receive the email in one of my accounts, but I tried other 3 and none of them received the email, even Gmail is not receiving it.
What Am I doing wrong?
Btw, I tested to send an email using the same function on another droplet and it worked, so it has to be something with the environment, but I cannot figure what it is!
Thank you.
