So i set up an email activation script (i am using XAMPP) and when i test the email function using email@localhost it works fine but when i try with [email protected] i doesn't send the activation code

Heres the scripts:

register.php:
<html>
<body>
<h1>Sign up</h1>
<form action="verify.php" method="post" name="register">
Username: <br><input type="text" name="fullname" /> <br>
Email: <br><input type="text" name="email" /> <br>
Password: <br><input type="password" name="password" /> <br>
Repeat password:<br> <input type="password" name="repassword" /> <br>
<input type="hidden" name="form_submitted" value="1"/>
<input type="submit" />
</form>
</body>

</html>


verify.php
<?php

$b_email = $_POST['b_email'];
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error());

mysql_select_db("users") or die(mysql_error());




if ($_POST['form_submitted'] == '1') {

$activationKey = mt_rand() . mt_rand() . mt_rand() . mt_rand() . mt_rand();

$sql="INSERT INTO users (fullname, password, email, activationkey, status)

VALUES

('$_POST[fullname]', '$_POST[password]', '$_POST','$activationKey', 'verify')";

if (!mysql_query($sql))

{

die('Error: ' . mysql_error());


}

echo "An email has been sent to $_POST[email] with an activation key. Please check your mail to complete registration.";

##Send activation Email

$to = $_POST['email'];

$subject = " YOURWEBSITE.com Registration";

$message = "Welcome to our website!\r\rYou, or someone using your email address, has completed registration at YOURWEBSITE.com. You can complete registration by clicking the following link:\http://localhost/verify.php?$activationKey\r\rIf this is an error, ignore this email and you will be removed from our mailing list.\r\rRegards,\ YOURWEBSITE.com Team";

$headers = 'From: testuser1@localhost' . "\r\n" .

'Reply-To: testuser1@localhost' . "\r\n" .

'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);



} else{

##User isn't registering, check verify code and change activation code to null, status to activated on success

$queryString = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

$query = "SELECT * FROM users";

$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){

if ($queryString == $row["activationkey"]){

echo "Congratulations!" . $row["username"] . " is now the proud new owner of an YOURWEBSITE.com account.";

$sql="UPDATE users SET activationkey = '', status='activated' WHERE (id = $row[id])";

if (!mysql_query($sql))

{

die('Error: ' . mysql_error());

}

}

}

}



?>
