I need help with PHP and mail()

[icmc]

Hi all

Let's get this out of the way straight away

I am not a programmer at all

I don't have a clue about unix and or Linux

The problem
I have made a website and have one page which is a contact form . I have uploaded it and the page as such works fine until I press submit and I get the following error

mail() has been disabled for security reasons .....

In the error log in the PHP folder I have this

[19-Oct-2013 20:54:51] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/suhosin.so' - /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/suhosin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0
[19-Oct-2013 20:54:51] PHP Warning: mail() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/ianmcc/public_html/phpscript/contactformprocess.php on line 38

The folder /usr/.... I just cannot find in the root nor any other folder


Anyone out there in Web World who can assist???

Thx in advance
Ian

Yes, your Hosting Provider should be able to assist you with this. They should be able to explain why mail() has been disabled for security reasons on their servers.

mail() function is not the best way to do this.
Better use PhpMailer Class which is free and do the work fine!
