New Host has put me in the Poop with my script!

Hi All,

Can anyone help me here, please? I've got all my lovely PHP scripting
working (basically a form that gathers data and mails it). The mail script
looks like this:

*********************

<?
mail("my.name100@ntlworld.com", "PRIORITY ORDER",
"CONTACT INFO:
Name= $name
Address= $address
Telephone= $telephone
Email= $email
Fittingstyle= $radiochoice

WITH:
Cornice and Pelmet Style= $radiomoderntrad
Co-ordination= $radiocoord
Delivered as= $radiopacking

Ordered items: $all
");?>

**********************

All of this used to work fine until last week when I changed hosts. Now this
script stubbornly refuses to send me any mail! If I try using it on my old
host again it works great. I phoned up tech support and the guy there told
me I need to specify a Localhost aswell as giving valid to and from email
addresses. Is this true? I'm guessing there's something not quite set up
right. If anyone could offer any advice I would be most grateful to you....

Thanks,

Steve M.

Forget this request please people - I go away shopping for half an hour and
what do I see when I get back but the whole stack of my 'missing' emails in
the inbox. Laggy server I guess!

Thanks anyway,

Steve

Did you move from a Plesk to a CPanel host by any chance?
