PHP mail() doesn't get out

I'm running PHP as CGI and trying to send mail via mail() in PHP. I didn't receive my test messages, so I checked the mail queue and see that they're being rejected. Any reason why this would be happening? Oddly, it's rejecting the recipient address that's hosted by DH...

This is the first time I've tried to send mail through DH from PHP, since I just recently signed up.

Cheers,
Jonathan

I'm having same problem. Got messages earlier today, but all has stopped now on all domains.

The mail function passes, as I put a check in the script (just in case)

How do you check mail queue?

Hope to solve this soon

=========================

'mailq' at the CLI (you must SSH to the server)

Maybe it was just coincidental that there was just a temporary problem when I tried that... three hours later, my mail finally kicked out of the queue.

If anyone is interested, here's the headers:

About the same time as you (3am here) my test emails for a new form all came through. System glitch maybe?
