Here's a simple question for you coders:

I have this line: [:"blue"]$to = $config['emailaddy'];[/]

and I want to substitute an actual e-mail address in the "$to" field. How is that done?

Thanks!

Thanks..... even though it didn't resolve my problem, which I hoped it would.

I guess you didn't pinpoint your problem then.

Actually, I did pin-point the problem but I don't know how to resolve it. []http://www.the-highway.com/Smileys/stupidme.gif[/]

Ok, so what value does the variable $to have in your case?

I don't know what a "value" is. But I'll venture a guess and hope it is what you are asking for: $to = $Email;

$to = "[email protected]";

The value of the variable $to in the above case is [][email protected][/] .

Did you enter your email address instead of [email][email protected]?[/email]

Also, which script are we talking about at all?

Anno,

Yep... understood now about "value". And yes, I substituted my actual e-mail address as you kindly showed me.

The script is actually a custom addon script to both my "subscriptions.php" and "dopurgemessages.php" files which used to send an e-mail to me showing how many subscriptions were sent out each night as well as how many PMs had been deleted from the database. I have a cron set to delete all PMs over 30 days old. All subscriptions are successfully sent out and PMs are deleted as intended. The problem is with these two e-mails that are supposed to be sent to me personally with the subscription count and PM deletion count.

They were both working fine until my ISP made some changes to their e-mail server configuration.

Why not send a PM instead?

1) Having the results of these cron jobs sent via e-mail eliminates my having to visit the Board, 2) E-mails allow me to have a permanent record that I can then use for reference and statistics purposes, and 3) The script is already written for e-mail, which although presently it isn't working, it did for 4 years. To change it would require a knowledge of PHP which I unfortunately don't have.

Well, the problem seems to be the server, not the variable.

Anno,

Out of courtesy I'm just wanting to let you know that the problem has been resolved. It was nothing I tried that resolved it but evidently, my hosting ISP made yet another change to their e-mail server configuration. []http://www.the-highway.com/Smileys/bingo.gif[/]
