I really need help. I uploaded all files needed to run the phpform in a Windows based server. But when it happened to change chmod to the forms folder, i couldn't do it. I read that in windows servers it's not neccessary to chmod files. Anyway, I left that behind, made my custom form and tested but nothing is sent to me, although i get the success message. I'm running the 2.08 version.
Thanks.

Is this your own server or a web hosting server you pay for?
If this is your own you need to make sure there is a working mailer (many flavors). If this is a server you pay for, send a not to the tech support to see if they support the PHP mail() function.
Start with that and let us know what answers you have.

Hi again. it's a server of a friend of mine. Certainly he doesn't know a thing about servers so we don't know how to figure out if there's a working mailer. By the way, what do you mean by "working mailer"? another php based mailing script running on the server? If so, all he has in there is a coppermine photo gallery which is also php based (strange but that photo gallery works fine), but no mailer at all.
"Working mailer"
A program that can accept a formated message and send it to a destination address. In UNIX/LINUX this is something like sendmail, in Windows this can be a Microsoft Mail Server, or some other mail server software. I looked at the link you sent and it appears that there is some mail service. Can this machine send mail? Does this service accept mail message from PHP and send them through the mail service? If you don't know you need to find out. You then need to find out how PHP interfaces to teh mail server (service). There is alot to know and very little I can help you with regarding the proper setup and operation of your server without much more detail on the setup.
You need to find out more about the Windows machine and how it is setup to send mail.
