---- Weird cron job issue - works for one user, but not another

I have a cronjob set up that runs a relatively simple PHP script that evaluates criteria in a local MySQL table and then sends an email to an external address with the results.

Here's the issue. The script runs fine when I type it in as a URL (www.example.com/folder/script.php) - email delivered fine and everything. And as a cronjob, it runs fine too, when it's tested by my webhost's tech support people (it emails them), but it will NOT email me.

I've tried 3 different email addresses, no dice. Not in the inbox, and not in the spam filter. But when the tech support person uses her personal Yahoo email address, it works fine for her.

Huh? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Joe
