PHP script different for Linux and Windows servers?

[caran1]

I have a simple PHP script for a registration form which was working fine on different websites which are hosted on windows and linux servers. Now I do not receive the email message formed for the website hosted on windows server. There is no problem with the script for the linux server. Should I modify the windows script or is it a server problem?
I dont know much about PHP, so any help is appreciated

If you post the code that does not work here, we probably would be able to say more :-)

As you probably use the mail() function, then you must know that it uses the mailserver, not apache. Therefore the very probable reason for a script not to work on Windows is that you didn't install any mailserver there.

Thanks for the replies. I got a reply from the hosting company. they forward the email to [e-mail] and then forward it to my ISP address
The function seems to work only with free email addresses like hotmail and not with ISP addresses for the windows server .
