Does it work with any other email address?
Can we see the code that actually processes the form, and perhaps the form itself?

This is my "contact.php"

<?php
//-----------------Getting data sent by flash---------------------
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value){

if ($key != 'mail_to' && $key != 'smtp_server' && $key != 'smtp_port' && $key != 'mail_from' && $key != 'mail_subject' && $key != 'plain_text'){

$mail_body .= ''.str_replace('_',' ',$key).': ';

$mail_body .= ''.stripslashes($value).' ';
}
}
//-----------------------------------------------------------------

$message = '<html><body>'.$mail_body.'</body></html>'; // mail body

//------------if plain text is set to true removing html tags------
if ($_POST['plain_text']=='true') {

$message = str_replace(' ',"\r\n", $message);

$message = strip_tags($message);

//------------------------------------------------------------------
} else {
//----otherwise composing message headers---------------------------
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";

$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
//------------------------------------------------------------------
}

//------------setting conf data-------------------------------------
$to = $_POST['mail_to'];

$from = $_POST['mail_from'];

$subject = $_POST['mail_subject'];

$smtp_server = $_POST['smtp_server'];

$smtp_port = $_POST['smtp_port'];
//------------------------------------------------------------------

//---------setting header info--------------------------------------
$headers .= 'To: '.$to. "\r\n";

$headers .= 'From: Site visitor ' .$from. "\r\n";
//------------------------------------------------------------------

if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)){ // sending mail

print('&mail=1'); //succes

} else {

print('&mail=0');//failure

}

?>

and this is my "contact.asp"

end if

This is not an XML question, it's an ASP one. The XML is just an interface that this script uses to be an easily customizable, off the shelf contact form.

Unless you can answer my original question if this contact form works with any other e-mail address, then post it in the ASP forum.

My apologies on the fact thinking it was an asp issue, it looks like you've specified in the XML that you're using the PHP script....although I still have no idea what the interface is between the XML and the contact.php script is. So it's either the php script itself, or the combination of the php script and your server. ask this question in the php forum.
