The sendmail script I have below works on PHP version 5.6.14, but i've had to use the same script on a server that has version 5.3.10 and it just won't send. Do i need to change the syntax of my code to work with older PHP? if so what do i need to change?
<?php
$error = ""; // Initialize error as blank
$errorMsg = ""; // Initialize error as blank
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { // check if the form is submitted
#### removing extra white spaces & escaping harmful characters ####
$name = trim($_POST['name']);
$email = $_POST['email'];
$phone = $_POST['telephone'];
$company = $_POST['company'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
#### start validating input data ####
