Use a plain-text editor like the free and amazing TextWrangler from http://barebones.com to create the following file, name it something cryptic that only you know, upload it to your server’s Web root folder using an FTP tool like Transmit, and then visit it. (Remember, cryptic name, and don’t tell us what it’s called, and delete it after you’re done.) Be sure to add your own e-mail address where it’s indicated.
<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$to = 'your-email-address-goes-here';
if (mail($to, 'Test Message from the Server',
'Howdy from ' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'],
'From: ' . $to, '-f' . $to))
print 'Message Sent!';
?>
This will (or should) send a single e-mail to whatever address you enter into it on the third line of code whenever you visit it in your browser. Name it asdfsadf.php or something similarly wacky, and just upload it and go there in a browser. If it all works, you should only see the words Message Sent! in your browser window. If you see anything else, then that’s a good place to start debugging.

In a bit of a fix here. Part of a big website is ticket reservation for a major rock festival and the booking form should have been live a couple of days ago.
I’ve used the PHP Feedback form action, exactly as prescribed, nine times actually, and when uploaded to the server using FW Upload, the page displays fine but there’s no activity after hitting submit.
Checked all settings and parameters, they seem in order.
Server is running PHP 5+ as far as I know, but am awaiting results from a support ticket.
Any ideas? Please.
