New install / setup here. I'm running OS X 10.4.8 on a Mac Pro. I enabled personal web sharing and changed the Apache config file to serve up php pages. So far, so good. (I have not upgraded either Apache or PHP yet).

My form displays, and I click sumbit, and I can send an email to myself via the php mail() function. However, in my home network, from other machines, the email fails. It bounces to my Mac's Mail inbox, and this is what it says: (I've dummied up the actual email addresses)

Code:

Thanks!  Todd.

Before getting this far ("this far" = actually sending an email), I tried dozens of times using MAMP''s setup, before I finally trashed it and tried with the Apple distributed apache & php. So, now I get an email when I fill out the form on my Mac when sending a form email to myself.

Is this a config issue still, or is it that SpamHaus has me blacklisted? Anyone have any experience with getting off of their list?

Thanks, Todd (new to all this server side stuff)
 
I figured it out. It was SpamHaus. I removed the IP from their "PBL" and it's all cleared up. Next time, I'll disable the actual mail() function while I'm in development/test mode.
