I can't send an email php to Hotmail?

Question

Here's my code:

<?php

$to = 'test@hotmail.com';
$subject = 'reservation hotel n';
$msg ='ok';

// Make sure to escape quotes

$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From:  hôtel  <reservation@hotel.com' . "\r\n";

mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers);

?>

It worked for Gmail, Yahoo, GMX ...but it didn't work for Hotmail/Live/MSN.

Because it worked for Gmail, I can assume that it has nothing to do with my server, right?

I also tried it with just: http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/safety/content/technologies/senderid/wizard/Default.aspx

Hotmail/Microsoft are very rigid when it comes to accepting emails – they pay very close attention to certain headers being set/their values, sender and location (server) “matching”, etc. See other questions with similar topics to try and find a solution, http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=php+mail+hotmail — CBroe, Oct 20 '14 at 11:42
There's a whole bunch of server configuration you're gonna need to do to make your server reliable for emailing. Most people nowadays use third party services like Amazon because they have everything set up and you can be sure your emails aren't going to be picked up as spam. Nothing wrong with your code — danhardman, Oct 20 '14 at 11:42

I think that you need one of these for it to work: Sender ID Framework SPF Record Wizard

It should solve your problem as Hotmail wants this for safety.

I saw that. I guess that you will just have to wait for them to finish it. I find it strange that your web host hasn't provided you with one though. – Peter Jonsson Oct 20 '14 at 11:43

Check it

<?php
   $to = "$email";
    $subject = "Welcome to";
    $message = " Hi $username,<br /><br />
    Thank you for signing up with us.<br />

    Thanks <br />";
    // Always set content-type when sending HTML email
    $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
    $headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" . "\r\n";
    // More headers
    $headers .= 'From: <test@gmail.com>' . "\r\n";
    $mail=mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
?>
