Email link on website / hide from spambots

[Bell]

Allright, so a few months ago I created a PHP script thingy to allow for submitting a message to my email address through a website. I tested it back then, and it worked fine. The script was laying about for a while, and today I finaly decided to implemend it, but alas, it doesn't work. Seems like the host has added some restrictions regarding PHP usage. I think the script is (still) fine.

<?
$To =		"xxx xxxxxx <xxxx@xxxxxx.com>";
$Subject =	"xxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxxxx";

$Confirm =	"../contact2.html";

foreach ($_POST as $Field=>$Value)
$MessageBody .= "$Field: $Value\n";
$MessageBody = htmlspecialchars($MessageBody);

$From =		$_POST['NAME'];
$FromEmail =	$_POST['EMAIL'];

$Header =	"From: \"$From\" <$FromEmail>\r\n";

mail($To, $Subject, $MessageBody, $Header);

header("Location: $Confirm");
?>

So, for you php geeks does the above script look okay?

Also, is there a way to create a 'mail to' html tag, without letting spambots collect the email address from the html source?


ETA: Riiight, so finally today's testmail arrived... some 4 hours after I had submitted it. The script works... but what the hell is up with the long delay??

Do a google search for email address obfuscator. You'll find a bunch of solutions.

Check your PMs. I've sent you a html file that encrypts email addresses.

This is the one situation where I prefer to use CGI over vanilla php. I store the email template in a .txt file and just use the form for the body, subject, and sender's email address.
