Im trying to set my php script to work correctly by using gmail for the smtp server and sending me emails from my website contact form. For some reason my script wont work and I can't figure out why. Below is the php script that I have and the html section form. Any help is appreciated, Thanks.


contact.php

<?php

if(!$_POST) exit;

require("phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php")

function smtpMail($to, $from_name, $from_email, $subject, $body){

$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
$mail->Host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
$mail->Port = 465;
$mail->Username ="fake@gmail.com"; 
$mail->Password = "123456"; 
$mail->SetFrom($from_email, $from_name);
$mail->Subject = $subject;
$mail->Body = $body;
$mail->AddAddress($to);

return $mail->Send();
}

$email = $_POST['email'];


//$error[] = preg_match('/\b[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+… $_POST['email']) ? '' : 'INVALID EMAIL ADDRESS';
if(!eregi("^[a-z0-9]+([_\\.-][a-z0-9]+… ."@"."([a-z0-9]+([\.-][a-z0-9]+)*)+"."\\… )){
$error .="Invalid email address entered";
$errors = 1;
}
if($errors==1) echo $error;
else{
$values = array ('name','email','message','subject');
$required = array('name','email','message','subject');

$your_email = "james@example.com";
$email_subject = "New Message: ".$_POST['subject'];
$email_content = "new message:\n";

foreach($values as $key => $value){
if(in_array($value,$required)){
if ($key != 'company') {
if( empty($_POST[$value]) ) { echo 'PLEASE FILL IN REQUIRED FIELDS'; exit; }
}
$email_content .= $value.': '.$_POST[$value]."\n";
}
}

if(@smtpMail($your_email, $receipient_email, $receipient_name, $email_subject, $email_content) {
echo 'Message sent!';
} else {
echo 'ERROR! Message was NOT sent.';
}
}

?>

HTML Contact Form

<form action="contact.php" method="post" id="contactform">
	  				<ol>
            			<li>
              				<label for="name">First Name <span>*</span></label>
              				<input id="name" name="name" class="text" />
            			</li>
            			<li>
              				<label for="email">Your email <span>*</span></label>
              				<input id="email" name="email" class="text" />
            			</li>
            			<li>
              				<label for="company">Company</label>
              				<input id="company" name="company" class="text" />
           				</li>
            			<li>
              				<label for="subject">Subject</label>
              				<input id="subject" name="subject" class="text" />
            			</li>
            			<li>
              				<label for="message">Message <span>*</span></label>
              				<textarea id="message" name="message" rows="5" cols="50" style="height:200px;"></textarea>
            			</li>
            			<li>
              				<input class="button" style="color:#fff;" type="submit"  value="Send" />
            			</li>
       			    </ol>
        		</form>

Well, when I send a test message from the html contact form, it will tell me Message sent!, but I never get the email. Im not sure if its something with the php form thats not setup correctly. I have tried with other PHPMailler test examples and they all go through instantly with gmail.
