    I want to use another if statement in below mail function with failure message.

    so when mail will not sent it can display failure message on the screen

    <?php 
    if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
        $to = "Test@gmail.com"; // this is your Email address
        $from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
        $first_na = $_POST['first_name'];
        $last_nae = $_POST['last_name'];
        $subject = "Form submission";
        $subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
        $message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
        $message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
    
        $headers = "From:" . $from;
        $headers2 = "From:" . $to;
        
    mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
    	
    	
        mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
        echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
        // You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
        // You cannot use header and echo together. It's one or the other.
    }
    
    ?>

  • Hello User,

    If you want to show message on failure then you need to use the mail function like below. if(mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers)){ echo 'mail sent'; }else { echo 'Mail did not send'; }

    Thank you
