    Some suggestions......
    1) Add your email to your white list.( or hit the 'Not Spam' button in yahoo)
    2)Disable SPAM filtering(though its not a good idea)
    3) Try to add an SPF record for your domain http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/safe...d/default.aspx
    4) try sending mail through SMTP instead of php mail() function.

    Re: PHP Contact form prob.

    I would recommend creating a contact system that doesn't rely solely on email. For instance, when a user submits the contact form, the values are stored in the database, and once in a while you open another webpage and read all the contact forms stored in the database. This way, even if the mail function is disabled, you can still be contacted.
    And, as an extra, you can also make the system email you.

    PM me if you want more detail.
