Default Contact Form Help Please

http://www.strictlyadmin.co.uk/contact2.html

I've had that form a while and when I originally tested it worked fine but now it stops. When I fill it in and try to send it says
Error:
  • No connection to the mailserver. Please try again later.
Now when I click on the email address I also have on the bottom of that forum, which is sending to the same email address that works fine. Anyone have any idea as to what I should be checking please?

Thanks

Ok the problem you are facing with the first post is that the 'SMTP' information isn't being found by the script, perhaps you need to add these details to the script using notepad or whatever tool you use.

Fortunately I use a content management system on my website so it is pretty straight forward that way. If you are using a Joomla based website then I suggest logging into the administrator area and looking at Global Configuration for the Mail tab.
If you are not using Joomla, have a browse through the script to see if you can find an empty tag or something with SMTP and no address.

The SMTP address is usually in the form of - smtp.myserver.com (where myserver is the name of your host, your own domain, or something like hotmail/yahoo if that is where you want the emails sent)
