I downloaded this form http://css-tricks.com/examples/NiceSimpleContactForm/. my client use free gmail account and he want to get all mail in his gmail account through contact us form. I tested this but mail not coming to gmail.

This is the code of form php

<?php

$EmailFrom = \"chriscoyier@gmail.com\";
$EmailTo = \"CHANGE-THIS@YOUR-DOMAIN.com\";
$Subject = \"Nice & Simple Contact Form by CSS-Tricks\";
$Name = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Name'])); 
$Tel = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Tel'])); 
$Email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Email'])); 
$Message = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Message'])); 

// validation
$validationOK=true;
if (!$validationOK) {
  print \"<meta http-equiv=\\"refresh\\" content=\\"0;URL=error.htm\\">\";
  exit;
}

// prepare email body text
$Body = \"\";
$Body .= \"Name: \";
$Body .= $Name;
$Body .= \"\n\";
$Body .= \"Tel: \";
$Body .= $Tel;
$Body .= \"\n\";
$Body .= \"Email: \";
$Body .= $Email;
$Body .= \"\n\";
$Body .= \"Message: \";
$Body .= $Message;
$Body .= \"\n\";

// send email 
$success = mail($EmailTo, $Subject, $Body, \"From: <$EmailFrom>\");

// redirect to success page 
if ($success){
  print \"<meta http-equiv=\\"refresh\\" content=\\"0;URL=contactthanks.php\\">\";
}
else{
  print \"<meta http-equiv=\\"refresh\\" content=\\"0;URL=error.htm\\">\";
}
?>

I just changed this

$EmailFrom = \"chriscoyier@gmail.com\";
$EmailTo = \"CHANGE-THIS@YOUR-DOMAIN.com\";

to this

$EmailFrom = \"myname@gmail.com\";
$EmailTo = \"myname@gmail.com\";

What is the problem, what is the purpose of $EmailFrom? user will fill their own email in form.

The point of $Emailfrom is so that you can set a certain static email to have it LOOK like its coming from a certain person all the time. So if you set it to yourself, or to say "contact@mysite.com", it doesn't go to spam and you can even have it separated into a particular folder everytime. However, if you set the From to the $Email parameter instead, it will grab the input the user provides and will tell you its coming from that. Its up to you there.

try this


<?php 
if(isset($_POST[\"submit\"])){
$to=\"mail@callus24x7.com\";
$name=trim(addslashes($_POST[\"name\"]));
$cno=trim(addslashes($_POST[\"cno\"]));
$email=trim(addslashes($_POST[\"email\"]));
$add=trim(addslashes($_POST[\"add\"]));

$message=\"Name : \".$name.\"\n\n\";
$message=$message.\"Contact No :\n \".$cno.\"\n\n\";
$message=$message.\"Email :\n \".$email.\"\n\n\";
$message=$message.\"Address :\n \".$add.\"\n\n\";

mail($to,\"Email\",$message,\"From:$email\");
mail(\"krushna.c@gmail.com\",\"Enquiry\",$message,\"From:$email\");
?>
<script type=\"text/javascript\">
alert(\"Your message is sent Successfully .....\");
document.location=\"index.php\";
</script>
<?php
}
?>
