I tried the extra header.  The problem is with the return receipts.  The
mail is being generated by a server other than my main e-mail server, so if
I want a delivery/read receipt I have to specify a "From" e-mail address or
else it will default to the user executing the script, i.e.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  ini_set() does not appear to work with sendmail_path.
sendmail_path is in the PHP_INI_SYSTEM group so it can only be set in the
php.ini or httpd.conf...Thanks for the suggestion though...

Why not just put it in the extra headers?

$headers .= "From: $email_address_from_your_database\r\n";

Or you could possibly use ini_set() to change the php.ini setting.
