    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to send emails using mail function, in the inbox of the yahoo? I wrote a basic mail, but the email always goes in the bulk :(.
    If you have any other solution, please post it.

    do you have your own mail server configured or do you use a separate mail server?

    i am not sure if this would help, but in your script add the additional "FROM: " header to the mail after the message variable, the mail function uses the php.ini settings to use as the FROM... so maybe your name is something that a filter would see as spam...
