I write the following code for a test:

$mail_to = $_GET["email"];

$mail_oggetto = "Test";
$mail_corpo = "This is a test";

if (mail($mail_to, $mail_oggetto, $mail_corpo, "From: $mail_from"))
echo "Email sended to $mail_to";
else
echo "Error: email not sended to $mail_to.";
?>

#######################################

This work fine if $mail_to ends with hotmail.com or gmail.com, but if it ends with tiscali.it, email.it or inwind.it the email results sended, but I don't receive it!

Thats the receiving mail server that filters away the mail based on the host in the from-address. tiscali.it is also a quite popular domain for spemmers to send their spam from.


As can I resolve it? If I must send a message with programs as Outlook or Thunderbird, I must use as sender an email of my provider, but in this case Apache (apache@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) result the senders.

Use a reply-to header where you use those spammer host addresses.
